Hi,

I use the JSONGenerator to generate a JSON string; but have a problem parsing it using the JSONParser:

The generated JSON is:

B4X:
[
  {
  "data": {
  "id": 3906,
  "lastname": "LastName 0",
  "lcv": 0,
  "firstname": "FirstName 0"
  },
  "meta": {
  "id": 1321,
  "tableid": 3906,
  "status": "I",
  "tablename": "authors",
  "datetime": 20150111181016
  }
  },
  {
  "startid": -1,
  "batchsize": -1,
  "complete": false,
  "controller": 1,
  "password": ""
  }
]

I parse it with:

B4X:
Dim json As JSONParser
json.Initialize(jsonStatements) 'this string contains the JSON text above
mMapper.SQL.BeginTransaction
item = json.NextObject

the NextObject generates following exception:

B4X:
ava.lang.RuntimeException: JSON Object expected.

OK, found it .. The JSON contains in fact a list, so I should have started with json.NextArray

Thanks Erel.

Indeed, I forgot this tool existed. But it would have been very helpful indeed ...
