Trying to solve https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63520
I start to work on a dropin alternative for current json extension in php. Current work: https://github.com/remicollet/pecl-json-c It is obviously to late for PHP 5.5, and need probably more feedback, more tests, and more work before a RFC for PHP 5.6 (or later). * json_encode : same code than php 5.5, no difference * json_decode : wrapper over json-c 0.11 library. Difference: - error code returned by the parser are different. - number only parse as integer (no automatic cast to double) - loose of performance (but still acceptable, I think) New feature: as json-c is an incremental parser, a new class is available to allow incremental parsing (for large json encoded data) $parser = new JsonIncrementalParser(); $fic = fopen("somefile.json", "r"); do { $buf = fgets($fic); $ret=$parser->parse($buf); } while ($buf && ($ret==JsonIncrementalParser::JSON_PARSER_CONTINUE)); $result = $parser->get(); Still TODO: windows build stuff. Proposal: update the existing pecl/json extension or create a new pecl/json-c extension Regards, Remi. P.S. I have tried to contact Omar, original author of this extension, without success. -- PECL development discussion Mailing List (http://pecl.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
