Hi Tore,
jsonToArray uses the mergJSON external. The mergJSON external expects the
data passed to JSONtoArray() to be utf-8 encoded (this is the case with any
LC external, such revDB etc).
So something like this should work:
global kommuneArray
on preOpenStack
put empty into kommuneArray
put "file:" & specialFolderPath("resources")& "/Kommunedata.txt" into
tFile
put textEncode(tFile,"UTF-8") into tData
put jsonToArray(tData) into kommuneArray
end preOpenStack
Best,
Panos
