-Introduction
-------------
-
-[JSON][json-org] is a lightweight data-interchange format. It can represent
-numbers, strings, ordered sequences of values, and collections of name/value
-pairs.
-
-[json-org]: http://json.org/
-
-[JsonCpp][] is a C++ library that allows manipulating JSON values, including
-serialization and deserialization to and from strings. It can also preserve
-existing comment in unserialization/serialization steps, making it a convenient
-format to store user input files.
-
-[JsonCpp]: http://open-source-parsers.github.io/jsoncpp-docs/doxygen/index.html
-
-## A note on backward-compatibility
-* `1.y.z` is built with C++11.
-* `0.y.z` can be used with older compilers.
-* Major versions maintain binary-compatibility.
-
-# Using JsonCpp in your project
------------------------------
-The recommended approach to integrating JsonCpp in your project is to include
-the [amalgamated source](#generating-amalgamated-source-and-header) (a single
-`.cpp` file and two `.h` files) in your project, and compile and build as you
-would any other source file. This ensures consistency of compilation flags and
-ABI compatibility, issues which arise when building shared or static
-libraries. See the next section for instructions.
-
-The `include/` should be added to your compiler include path. Jsoncpp headers
-should be included as follow:
-
- #include <json/json.h>
-
-If JsonCpp was built as a dynamic library on Windows, then your project needs to
-define the macro `JSON_DLL`.
-
-Generating amalgamated source and header
-----------------------------------------
-JsonCpp is provided with a script to generate a single header and a single
-source file to ease inclusion into an existing project. The amalgamated source
-can be generated at any time by running the following command from the
-top-directory (this requires Python 2.6):
-
- python amalgamate.py
-
-It is possible to specify header name. See the `-h` option for detail.
-
-By default, the following files are generated:
-* `dist/jsoncpp.cpp`: source file that needs to be added to your project.
-* `dist/json/json.h`: corresponding header file for use in your project. It is
- equivalent to including `json/json.h` in non-amalgamated source. This header
- only depends on standard headers.
-* `dist/json/json-forwards.h`: header that provides forward declaration of all
- JsonCpp types.
-
-The amalgamated sources are generated by concatenating JsonCpp source in the
-correct order and defining the macro `JSON_IS_AMALGAMATION` to prevent inclusion
-of other headers.

-Building and testing with CMake
--------------------------------
-[CMake][] is a C++ Makefiles/Solution generator. It is usually available on most
-Linux system as package. On Ubuntu:
-
- sudo apt-get install cmake
-
-[CMake]: http://www.cmake.org
-
-Note that Python is also required to run the JSON reader/writer tests. If
-missing, the build will skip running those tests.
-
-When running CMake, a few parameters are required:
-
-* a build directory where the makefiles/solution are generated. It is also used
- to store objects, libraries and executables files.
-* the generator to use: makefiles or Visual Studio solution? What version or
- Visual Studio, 32 or 64 bits solution?
-
-Steps for generating solution/makefiles using `cmake-gui`:
-
-* Make "source code" point to the source directory.
-* Make "where to build the binary" point to the directory to use for the build.
-* Click on the "Grouped" check box.
-* Review JsonCpp build options (tick `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` to build as a
- dynamic library).
-* Click the configure button at the bottom, then the generate button.
-* The generated solution/makefiles can be found in the binary directory.
-
-Alternatively, from the command-line on Unix in the source directory:
-
- mkdir -p build/debug
- cd build/debug
- cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DBUILD_STATIC_LIBS=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DARCHIVE_INSTALL_DIR=. -G "Unix Makefiles" ../..
- make
-
-Running `cmake -h` will display the list of available generators (passed using
-the `-G` option).
-
-By default CMake hides compilation commands. This can be modified by specifying
-`-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=true` when generating makefiles.
-
-Building and testing with SCons
--------------------------------
-**Note:** The SCons-based build system is deprecated. Please use CMake; see the
-section above.
-
-JsonCpp can use [Scons][] as a build system. Note that SCons requires Python to
-be installed.
-
-[SCons]: http://www.scons.org/
-
-Invoke SCons as follows:
-
- scons platform=$PLATFORM [TARGET]
-
-where `$PLATFORM` may be one of:
-
-* `suncc`: Sun C++ (Solaris)
-* `vacpp`: Visual Age C++ (AIX)
-* `mingw`
-* `msvc6`: Microsoft Visual Studio 6 service pack 5-6
-* `msvc70`: Microsoft Visual Studio 2002
-* `msvc71`: Microsoft Visual Studio 2003
-* `msvc80`: Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
-* `msvc90`: Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
-* `linux-gcc`: Gnu C++ (linux, also reported to work for Mac OS X)
-
-If you are building with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, you need to set up the
-environment by running `vcvars32.bat` (e.g. MSVC 2008 command prompt) before
-running SCons.
-
-## Running the tests manually
-You need to run tests manually only if you are troubleshooting an issue.
-
-In the instructions below, replace `path/to/jsontest` with the path of the
-`jsontest` executable that was compiled on your platform.
-
- cd test
- # This will run the Reader/Writer tests
- python runjsontests.py path/to/jsontest
-
- # This will run the Reader/Writer tests, using JSONChecker test suite
- # (http://www.json.org/JSON_checker/).
- # Notes: not all tests pass: JsonCpp is too lenient (for example,
- # it allows an integer to start with '0'). The goal is to improve
- # strict mode parsing to get all tests to pass.
- python runjsontests.py --with-json-checker path/to/jsontest
-
- # This will run the unit tests (mostly Value)
- python rununittests.py path/to/test_lib_json
-
- # You can run the tests using valgrind:
- python rununittests.py --valgrind path/to/test_lib_json
-
-## Running the tests using scons
-Note that tests can be run using SCons using the `check` target:
-
- scons platform=$PLATFORM check
-
-Building the documentation
---------------------------
-Run the Python script `doxybuild.py` from the top directory:
-
- python doxybuild.py --doxygen=$(which doxygen) --open --with-dot
-
-See `doxybuild.py --help` for options.
-
-Adding a reader/writer test
----------------------------
-To add a test, you need to create two files in test/data:
-
-* a `TESTNAME.json` file, that contains the input document in JSON format.
-* a `TESTNAME.expected` file, that contains a flatened representation of the
- input document.
-
-The `TESTNAME.expected` file format is as follows:
-
-* each line represents a JSON element of the element tree represented by the
- input document.
-* each line has two parts: the path to access the element separated from the
- element value by `=`. Array and object values are always empty (i.e.
- represented by either `[]` or `{}`).
-* element path: `.` represents the root element, and is used to separate object
- members. `[N]` is used to specify the value of an array element at index `N`.
-
-See the examples `test_complex_01.json` and `test_complex_01.expected` to better
-understand element paths.
-
-Understanding reader/writer test output
----------------------------------------
-When a test is run, output files are generated beside the input test files.
-Below is a short description of the content of each file:
-
-* `test_complex_01.json`: input JSON document.
-* `test_complex_01.expected`: flattened JSON element tree used to check if
- parsing was corrected.
-* `test_complex_01.actual`: flattened JSON element tree produced by `jsontest`
- from reading `test_complex_01.json`.
-* `test_complex_01.rewrite`: JSON document written by `jsontest` using the
- `Json::Value` parsed from `test_complex_01.json` and serialized using
- `Json::StyledWritter`.
-* `test_complex_01.actual-rewrite`: flattened JSON element tree produced by
- `jsontest` from reading `test_complex_01.rewrite`.
-* `test_complex_01.process-output`: `jsontest` output, typically useful for
- understanding parsing errors.
