Iterating through objects in JsonCpp

I have a C++ application that uses jsoncpp to decode a JSON string. I have created the following function but it 开发者_Go百科only shows me the top level objects...

How do I get it to dump the entire object list?

--Function--

SaveJSON( json_data ); 

bool CDriverConfigurator::PrintJSONTree( Json::Value & root, unsigned short depth /* = 0 */) 
{
    printf( " {type=[%d], size=%d} ", root.type(), root.size() ); 

    if( root.size() > 0 ) {
        for( Json::ValueIterator itr = root.begin() ; itr != root.end() ; itr++ ) {
            PrintJSONTree( itr.key(), depth+1 ); 
        }
        return true;
    }

    // Print depth. 
    for( int tab = 0 ; tab < depth; tab++) {
        printf( "-"); 
    }
    
    if( root.isString() ) {
        printf( " %s", root.asString().c_str() ); 
    } else if( root.isBool() ) {
        printf( " %d", root.asBool() ); 
    } else if( root.isInt() ) {
        printf( " %d", root.asInt() ); 
    } else if( root.isUInt() ) {
        printf( " %d", root.asUInt() ); 
    } else if( root.isDouble() ) {
        printf( " %f", root.asDouble() ); 
    }
    else 
    {
        printf( " unknown type=[%d]", root.type() ); 
    }


    printf( "\n" ); 
    return true;
}

You have some errors related to seemingly not having a great handle on recursion or the key->value nature of JSON and how that relates to the library you're using. I haven't tested this code at all, but it should work better.

void CDriverConfigurator::PrintJSONValue( const Json::Value &val )
{
    if( val.isString() ) {
        printf( "string(%s)", val.asString().c_str() ); 
    } else if( val.isBool() ) {
        printf( "bool(%d)", val.asBool() ); 
    } else if( val.isInt() ) {
        printf( "int(%d)", val.asInt() ); 
    } else if( val.isUInt() ) {
        printf( "uint(%u)", val.asUInt() ); 
    } else if( val.isDouble() ) {
        printf( "double(%f)", val.asDouble() ); 
    }
    else 
    {
        printf( "unknown type=[%d]", val.type() ); 
    }
}

bool CDriverConfigurator::PrintJSONTree( const Json::Value &root, unsigned short depth /* = 0 */) 
{
    depth += 1;
    printf( " {type=[%d], size=%d}", root.type(), root.size() ); 

    if( root.size() > 0 ) {
        printf("\n");
        for( Json::Value::const_iterator itr = root.begin() ; itr != root.end() ; itr++ ) {
            // Print depth. 
            for( int tab = 0 ; tab < depth; tab++) {
               printf("-"); 
            }
            printf(" subvalue(");
            PrintJSONValue(itr.key());
            printf(") -");
            PrintJSONTree( *itr, depth); 
        }
        return true;
    } else {
        printf(" ");
        PrintJSONValue(root);
        printf( "\n" ); 
    }
    return true;
}

If you are just looking to print out the Json::Value, there's a method for that:

Json::Value val;
/*...build the value...*/
cout << val.toStyledString() << endl;

Also, you may want to look into the Json::StyledWriter, the documentation for it is here. I believe it print a human friendly version. Also, Json::FastWriter, documentation here, prints a more compact form.

This is a good example that can print either json objects and object member (and it's value) :

Json::Value root;               // Json root
Json::Reader parser;            // Json parser

// Json content
string strCarPrices ="{ \"Car Prices\": [{\"Aventador\":\"$393,695\", \"BMW\":\"$40,250\",\"Porsche\":\"$59,000\",\"Koenigsegg Agera\":\"$2.1 Million\"}]}";

// Parse the json
bool bIsParsed = parser.parse( strCarPrices, root );
if (bIsParsed == true)
{
    // Get the values
    const Json::Value values = root["Car Prices"];

    // Print the objects
    for ( int i = 0; i < values.size(); i++ )
    {
        // Print the values
        cout << values[i] << endl;

        // Print the member names and values individually of an object
        for(int j = 0; j < values[i].getMemberNames().size(); j++)
        {
            // Member name and value
            cout << values[i].getMemberNames()[j] << ": " << values[i][values[i].getMemberNames()[j]].asString() << endl;
        }
    }
}
else
{
    cout << "Cannot parse the json content!" << endl;
}

The output :

{
        "Aventador" : "$393,695",
        "BMW" : "$40,250",
        "Koenigsegg Agera" : "$2.1 Million",
        "Porsche" : "$59,000"
}
Aventador: $393,695
BMW: $40,250
Koenigsegg Agera: $2.1 Million
Porsche: $59,000

There is an easy way to iterate over all fields in json::value. I omitted the printf stuff.
