AS3 JSON parsing
from flash player 11, and sdk 4.6 there is native support for json. To use it you should change
var foods:Array = JSON.decode(jsonstring);to
var foods:Array = JSON.parse(jsonstring);while JSON is not from as3corelib but from sdk itself. Pretty much faster ;)
You will need to use the JSON Object Class (below link)http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/
and then something like this..
var data:String = "{\"name\":\"pizza\",\"price\":\"4.50\",\"quantity\":\"2\"}";var food:JSONObject = new JSONObject(data);trace(food.name); // Pizzatrace(food.price); // 4.50trace(food.quantity); // 2food.number++;var newData:String = String(food);trace(newData); // {"name":"pizza","price":"4.50","quantity":"2"}
Interesting datastructure... this should do it:
import com.adobe.serialization.json.JSON;/* ... other code ... */var foods:Array = JSON.decode(jsonstring);for(var i:int = 0; i < foods.length; i++) { for(var j:int = 0; j < foods[i].length; j++) { trace(foods[i][j].name); }}
