 New Comment:

That codition in php_json_decode is hit as utf16_len == -2



        utf16_len = utf8_to_utf16(utf16, str, str_len);

        if (utf16_len <= 0) {

                if (utf16) {

                        efree(utf16);

                }

                RETURN_NULL();

        }

Description:
------------
I'm attempting to use json_decode on a relatively long piece of JSON.
The JSON 

is returned successfully by file_get_contents, and is valid according to


JSONLint.



What I expect to happen is for the JSON to be correctly decoded, or NULL
to be 

returned and json_last_error to be populated with the reason. For some
reason 

NULL is returned and json_last_error remains at 0.



I have a feeling that this could be to do with the length of the file 

(containing a large array of objects).



I'm currently using:



r...@ross-laptop:/$ php -v



PHP 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: May 13 2010

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$raw =
file_get_contents("http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUserStats/GetGlobalAchievementPercentagesForApp/v0001/?gameid=440";);



$decoded = json_decode($raw);



$errors = array(

    JSON_ERROR_NONE => "No error has occurred",

    JSON_ERROR_DEPTH => "The maximum stack depth has been exceeded",

    JSON_ERROR_CTRL_CHAR => "Control character error, possibly
incorrectly encoded",    

    JSON_ERROR_SYNTAX => "Syntax error",

    //JSON_ERROR_UTF8 => "Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly
incorrectly encoded"

);



var_dump("Raw result:", $raw, "\n\n");

var_dump("Decoded result:", $decoded, "\n\n");

var_dump("JSON errors:", $errors[json_last_error()]);

Expected result:
----------------
Raw result: (long raw json)

Decoded result: object stdClass(1) { (data array) }

JSON errors: string "No error has occurred"

Actual result:
--------------
Raw result: (long raw json)

Decoded result: NULL

JSON errors: string "No error has occurred"
