Applications

• Use for simple C++ parsing.
• Parse valid JSON + Infinity, NaN values.

Design

• Consists of a single class, Pull Parser, and supporting exceptions.
• The PullParser interface is higher level C++ class designed to make parsing code resemble more closely the schema defining the data.
• Fragmentation issues concerning numbers disappear behind the PullParser class.
• The user "pulls" data from the JSON file piece by piece, rather than trying to catch data in a callback and maintain state between callbacks.
• Reading large strings is akin to reading file data (chunk by chunk)
• For those of you who like exceptions, you will like the Pull Parser as each "pull" carries with it an expectation of type. Error catching is very smooth.
• Thrown exceptions identify which character in the input caused the exception.
• For those of you who despise exceptions, feel free to contribute an exception free version.

Usage

Please see source package or github repository.

Project Ideas

• Create library to incrementally parse CouchDB responses (especially views)
