jsonlite2

Good things in life are free...

A light-weight C/C++ JSON library, relying on KISS (Keep It Stupid Simple) principle (similar to my other json library jsonlite). This time I decided to make the C version first, translating it to C++ afterwards seemed easier to me.

Overview

Yes, this library is designed to aim for fast compilation times, simplicity, ease of use and full compliance with JSON standard.

The C++ version

The C++ version of this library is a single-include header file, C++11 compliant, yet again relying on KISS principle. This time I decided not to use custom exceptions, also, the linter part of it is exception-free.

Obtaining

Both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows binaries of this library can be obtained here. The library has been compiled with MinGW GCC and should also be compatible with Microsoft's Visual C++ compiler and the others, since MinGW uses the same format for C libraries.

If you want you can compile the library yourself, just use the makefile provided in the c subdirectory.
