LeoJSON

LeoJSON is a small Leopard-Crew JSON brick for Mac OS X 10.5.8 PowerPC.

It provides a controlled public JSON API boundary for Leopard-Crew projects while using vendored JSONKit internally as the parser and serializer engine.

Target

• Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard
• PowerPC only
• Big Endian only
• G4/G5 compatible
• no Intel target
• no Universal Binary target
• no Tiger target

Public API

Application code should include:

#import "LeoJSON.h"

Applications should link against:

libLeoJSON.a
Foundation.framework

Application code must not include or call JSONKit directly. JSONKit remains an
internal implementation detail behind the LeoJSON boundary.

Minimal usage

NSString *errorString = nil;

id object = LeoJSONObjectFromData(jsonData,
                                  LeoJSONReadStrict,
                                  &errorString);

if (object == nil) {
    NSLog(@"LeoJSON parse failed: %@", errorString);
    return;
}

NSData *outData = LeoJSONDataFromObject(object,
                                        LeoJSONWriteCompact,
                                        &errorString);

if (outData == nil) {
    NSLog(@"LeoJSON serialization failed: %@", errorString);
    return;
}

Returned objects are autoreleased and follow Cocoa memory-management rules.
