Can't parse json from allocine

[pasnox]

The parser ( tested in both branches, master / 1.0.0 ) is not able to parse correctly content from AlloCiné.
You can get a copy of the json here: http://api.allocine.fr/rest/v3/movie?code=53300&format=json&mediafmt=mp4-hip&partner=100043982026&profile=large&sed=20130514&sig=rD6tw9RCQS3dpccdrYMyD3gWhk4%3D

The parser return false, but strangely the returned qvariant seem to have some content inside ?

Thanks,

I found the origin of the problem.
I was reusing the same parser to parse multiple data.
Doing that result in some parsing problems.
When recreating the parser each time, the problem disappear.

That's not good, I'm going to fix the issue.

I have some problems reproducing the issue, could you paste the json file here? I cannot access it anymore.

[pasnox]

Just now i can't. But the probleme is easily reproductible with random json.
Just create one parser, and use it to parse multime json content ( which u can store in a QList of QByteArray by example).

I cannot reproduce the issue. I tried to parse the same json data 3 times in a row using the same parser. I've also tried to parse a json object followed by another one (all repeated 3 times) but nothing happened.

Do you know how to reproduce the issue?

[pasnox]

In my test, i was parsing around 10 different json content. i will try to create a testcase tomorrow and send u.

Hi,

Here is a crappy export of the incrimined code that should reproduce the problem.
Url are presented to u as encoded one.
Feel free to reuse the sample and adapt with the request content.
Do quick, the url are valid only today (french hours).

        const QByteArray releaseData = reply->readAll(); // bytearray of current reply

        if ( !ok ) { // normally if u reproduce the bug, u should receive here bad result for good json ( except for url returning ip loggued error from the server )

A copy of the json files is available here in case more time is needed:

Ok, I quickly adapted the code I wrote to use the json data you posted. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it.

Could you take a look at commit 550cada (which is inside of the issue_25 branch) and tell me if something is missing?

[flavio]

@pasnox could you checkout this branch and run the unit tests? That would be really useful.

[pasnox]

Hi,

I recall that for having the bug, at least one of the json content received was an error ip loggued from server.
So in the loop, consider adding a bad json content at the middle or random place so on parse fails.

Goog / Bad / Goog / Good / Good / Good / Bad / Bad / Good may be a good test.

[flavio]

Fixed on master.

[pasnox]

Great! thanks
