Class to hold any JSON value.

Test programs:: tJsonValue

Synopsis

Class JsonValue can hold an arbitrary JSON value which can be a scalar, a JsonKVMap object, or a vector of JsonValue objects. In this way JSON values can be nested in any way.

Internally scalar values are kept as Bool, Int64, Double, DComplex or String values. The functions to obtain the value convert if possible. Note that conversion from Int64 to Bool is supported. The value can also be obtained as a ValueHolder object making it easier to use in other Casacore code. Null is also a valid JsonValue. A null value can be obtained as a floating point value resulting in a NaN. It can also be obtained as a null ValueHolder. Getting it for other types results in an exception.

It is possible to obtain the value as a multi-dimensional Array object if the values are regular, thus if nested vectors have the same sizes. The data type of an Array is the 'highest' data type of a value in it.

Normally a JsonValue object is created by JsonParser and is the interface to obtain a value of a field in a parsed JSON file. However, users can create JsonValue objects as well.

Motivation

JSON is a commonly used interchange format.

Member Function Documentation

DataType casacore::JsonValue::arrayDataType ( ) const

Get the most common data type of the value inside a possibly nested vector.

- If the value is a single value, that type is returned.
- If any vector value is a ValueMap, TpRecord is returned.
- If any vector contains non-matching data types, TpOther is returned.
- Otherwise the 'highest' data type is returned.

void casacore::JsonValue::clear ( )

private

Remove the value.

void casacore::JsonValue::copyValue ( const JsonValue & that )

private

Copy the value from another one.

DataType casacore::JsonValue::dataType ( ) const

inline

Get the data type of the value.

A ValueMap is returned as TpRecord, a vector as TpOther.

Array<Bool> casacore::JsonValue::getArrayBool ( ) const

Get the value as an Array.

The value must be a scalar or a regularly nested vector.

Array<DComplex> casacore::JsonValue::getArrayDComplex ( ) const

Array<double> casacore::JsonValue::getArrayDouble ( ) const

Array<Int64> casacore::JsonValue::getArrayInt ( ) const

Array<String> casacore::JsonValue::getArrayString ( ) const

Bool casacore::JsonValue::getBool ( ) const

Get the value in the given data type.

Numeric data type promotion can be done as well as conversion of integer to bool (0=False, other=True). An exception is thrown if a mismatching data type is used. Note that a null value can only be obtained as double (giving NaN).

ValueHolder casacore::JsonValue::getValueHolder ( ) const

Get the value as a ValueHolder.

A null value results in a null (empty) ValueHolder. An exception is thrown if the value cannot be represented as such, because it is a vector of differently typed values or nested vectors.

const JsonKVMap& casacore::JsonValue::getValueMap ( ) const

Get the value as a JsonKVMap (no conversion is possible).

std::vector<Bool> casacore::JsonValue::getVecBool ( ) const

As above, but get the value as a vector.

If the value is a scalar, a vector with length 1 is returned.
