how to read object of type json_object * in c++

[boddumanohar]

I am working on an application where two process exchange data through shared memory. So instead of using structs to pack the data, I choose to use JSON so that I won't face any issues due to compilers.

My sender side is written in C and the receiver side is written in C++14 code.

On my sender side, I can just use

json_object * jobj = json_tokener_parse(string);

and copy this jobj into the shared memory region.

On the reciver side, which is C++, how do I read get the json data from the json_object * object?

I really appreciate the help.

Looks like #412 again.

You should be able to #include <json-c/json.h> and call json-c functions the same way in C++ as you do in C.
