Solar_Json::_json_decode()

protected mixed Solar_Json::_json_decode ( string $str , bool $asArray = false )

Decodes a JSON string into appropriate variable.

Parameters

  • (string) $str: String encoded in JSON format

  • (bool) $asArray: Optional argument to decode as an array.

Returns

  • (mixed) decoded value

Description

Decodes a JSON string into appropriate variable.

Note: several changes were made in translating this method from Services_JSON, particularly related to how strings are handled. According to JSON_checker test suite from » http://www.json.org/JSON_checker/, a JSON payload should be an object or an array, not a string.

Therefore, returning bool(true) for 'true' is invalid JSON decoding behavior, unless nested inside of an array or object.

Similarly, a string of '1' should return null, not int(1), unless nested inside of an array or object.
