Interesting - the thing that I'd like to achieve (apart from xml and json) is a general purpose rev array serializer (both for storing to files, and transmitting over the network), that can simply acommodate anything that a rev array can, including binary data, but that doesn't require any pre-processing of an array from the user. So it would know when to base64encode or whatever, and would know how to unserialize and so-on. Ideally, it would be somewhat human-readable, too.

Best,

Mark

seemed like it might be useful to do it in a a way that doesn't re-
invent the wheel, and was abit 'lighter' than xml, so - json.

I, too, am just finishing a Rev-JSON-Rev set of routines to take advantage of a specialty web-javascript engine I found last year. The JSON format is much more compact that the XML equivalent, plus I added another 'linking'
dimension to the normal tree-logic.

Works very well but is definitely not a general solution or library. After this is up and running, I will be converting some of the javascript to Rev CGI. However, most of the javascript must remain since Rev does not run in
the browser on the client's machine.

What would be the advantage to this? Is it some kind of API to pass
data back and forth between java applications and revolution?

Here's a first go at a json parser/generator that converts between
revolution arrays and json objects/arrays, to an arbitrary level of
nesting. It has some basic formatting capability also.

As usual, any observations, modifications, disasters or other
comments welcome.
