The JSON class

Provides a basic interface to convert program variable values to/from JSON data.

The util.JSON class provides methods to parse and convert a JSON string to a RECORD variable.

JSON (JavaScript™ Object Notation) is a well known lightweight data-interchange format for JavaScript. For more details, see http://www.json.org. A JSON string (or object) is a comma-separated list of name:value pairs with the ':' character separating the key and the value. The list is enclosed in curly braces ({,}). The names are double-quoted strings.

This class is provided in the util C-Extension library; To use the util.JSON class, you must import the util package in your program:
