%%% JavaScript Object Notation ("JSON", http://www.json.org) is a simple
%%% data syntax meant as a lightweight alternative to other representations,
%%% such as XML.  JSON is natively supported by JavaScript, but many
%%% other languages have conversion libraries available.
%%%
%%% This module translates JSON types into the following Erlang types:
%%%
%%%	JSON			Erlang
%%%	----			------
%%%	number			number
%%%	string			string
%%%	array			{array, ElementList}
%%%	object			tagged proplist with string (or atom) keys (i.e. {struct, PropList} )
%%%	true, false, null	atoms 'true', 'false', and 'null'
%%%
%%% Character Sets: the external representation, and the internal
%%% representation of strings, are lists of UTF-16 code units.
%%% The encoding of supplementary characters, as well as
%%% transcoding to other schemes, such as UTF-8, can be provided
%%% by other modules.  (See discussion at
%%% http://groups.yahoo.com/group/json/message/52)
%%%
%%%######################################################################
%%% UPD by Gaspar: for this moment utf-8 encoding inplemented by default
%%%                if incoming character list have symbols with codes
%%%                > 255
%%%######################################################################
%%%
%%% Numbers: Thanks to Erlang's bignums, JSON-encoded integers of any
%%% size can be parsed.  Conversely, extremely large integers may
%%% be JSON-encoded.  This may cause problems for interoperability
%%% with JSON parsers which can't handle arbitrary-sized integers.
%%% Erlang's floats are of fixed precision and limited range, so
%%% syntactically valid JSON floating-point numbers could silently
%%% lose precision or noisily cause an overflow.  However, most
%%% other JSON libraries are likely to behave in the same way.
%%%
%%% Strings: If we represented JSON string data as Erlang binaries,
%%% we would have to choose a particular unicode format.  Instead,
%%% we use lists of UTF-16 code units, which applications may then
%%% change to binaries in their application-preferred manner.
%%%
%%% Arrays: Because of the string decision above, and Erlang's
%%% lack of a distinguished string datatype, JSON arrays map
%%% to Erlang tuples.  Consider utilities like tuple_fold/3
%%% to deal with tuples in their native form.
%%%######################################################################
%%% UPD by Gaspar: array changed to {array, ArrayElementList}
%%%                ArrayElementList -> list
%%%                to provide compatibility to xmlrpc module
%%%######################################################################
%%%
%%% Objects: Though not explicitly stated in the JSON "spec",
%%% JSON's JavaScript heritage mandates that member names must
%%% be unique within an object.  The object/tuple ambiguity is
%%% not a problem, since the atom 'struct' is not an
%%% allowable value.  Object keys may be atoms or strings on
%%% encoding but are always decoded as strings.
%%%
%%%######################################################################
%%% UPD by Gaspar: struct changed to {array, PropList}
%%%                object keys always decoded to atoms to
%%%                provide full compatility with xmlrpc module

%%% PARSING
%%%
%%% The decode function takes a char list as input, but
%%% interprets the end of the list as only an end to the available
%%% input, and returns a "continuation" requesting more input.
%%% When additional characters are available, they, and the
%%% continuation, are fed into decode/2.  You can use the atom 'eof'
%%% as a character to signal a true end to the input stream, and
%%% possibly flush out an unfinished number.  The decode_string/1
%%% function appends 'eof' to its input and calls decode/1.
%%%
%%% Parsing and scanning errors are handled only by match failures.
%%% The external caller must take care to wrap the call in a "catch"
%%% or "try" if better error-handling is desired.  Eventually parse
%%% or scan errors will be returned explicitly with a description,
%%% and someday with line numbers too.
%%%
%%% The parsing code uses a continuation-passing style to allow
%%% for the parsing to suspend at any point and be resumed when
%%% more input is available.
%%% See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation_passing_style

%% Return {done, Result, LeftoverChars} if a value is recognized,
%% or {more, Continuation} if more input characters are needed.
%% The Result can be {ok, Value}, eof, or {error, Reason}.
%% The Continuation is then fed as an argument to decode/2 when
%% more input is available.
%% Use the atom 'eof' instead of a char list to signal

%%% tests will in fact test the Erlang equivalence of the
%%% JSON -> Erlang -> JSON -> Erlang coding chain.
