json概要

json是一种文本格式的协议
对于人的可阅读性非常好

其中object和array中的value都可以嵌套

cJSON数据结构

每个节点的数据结构如下

/* cJSON Types: */
#define cJSON_Invalid (0)
#define cJSON_False  (1 << 0)
#define cJSON_True   (1 << 1)
#define cJSON_NULL   (1 << 2)
#define cJSON_Number (1 << 3)
#define cJSON_String (1 << 4)
#define cJSON_Array  (1 << 5)
#define cJSON_Object (1 << 6)
#define cJSON_Raw    (1 << 7) /* raw json */

#define cJSON_IsReference 256
#define cJSON_StringIsConst 512

/* The cJSON structure: */
typedef struct cJSON
{
    /* next/prev allow you to walk array/object chains. Alternatively, use GetArraySize/GetArrayItem/GetObjectItem */
    struct cJSON *next;
    struct cJSON *prev;
    /* An array or object item will have a child pointer pointing to a chain of the items in the array/object. */
    struct cJSON *child;

    /* The type of the item, as above. */
    int type;

    /* The item's string, if type==cJSON_String  and type == cJSON_Raw */
    char *valuestring;
    /* writing to valueint is DEPRECATED, use cJSON_SetNumberValue instead */
    int valueint;
    /* The item's number, if type==cJSON_Number */
    double valuedouble;

    /* The item's name string, if this item is the child of, or is in the list of subitems of an object. */
    char *string;
} cJSON;

递归解析

入口函数：
cJSON_ParseWithLengthOpts(...)
{
	parse_value(...) // 解析值
}
parse_value(...)
{
	if(...) { ->type = cJSON_NULL; return true; }
	if(...) { ->type = cJSON_False; return true; }
	if(...) { ->type = cJSON_True; return true; }
	if(...) { return parse_string(...); }
	if(...) { return parse_number(...); }
	if(...) { return parse_array(...); }
	if(...) { return parse_object(...); }
	
}
parse_string(...)
{
	...
}
parse_number(...)
{
	...
}
parse_array(...)
{
	do {
		...
		parse_value(...);
		...
    } while(... && x==',');
	...
}
parse_object(...)
{
	do {
		...
		cJSON *new_item = cJSON_New_Item();
		current_item->next = new_item;
        new_item->prev = current_item;
        current_item = new_item;
        parse_string(current_item, input_buffer);
        current_item->string = current_item->valuestring;
        current_item->valuestring = NULL;
		parse_value(...);
		...
    } while(... && x==',');
	...
}
