Time to deprecate?
Now that they're built in, is it time to deprecate the library?
I still think fastJSON is the more reliable and fastest library.
I've had issues with mergJSON, and I'm not sure if it is included in the Community edition (I think the mergExt package was only Indy and up)
the JSON library made with LCB is also out until it is altered to create JSON arrays.
Not quite yet.
There are a couple of features the library does have that I know others do not offer. I also know these features are being used in projects. For folks using pre LC8 versions, this library is a must have (IMHO).
I do have a test case where fastJson is able to parse a JSON file but other solutions do not (the LC Dictionary in JSON format). I have not tried this test in a while and I suppose I should to see what the result is now.
I have thought about deprecated the library but for now, I'm leaving the project as "Active" although there's not likely to be much development work on it in the foreseeable future.
This is MUCH better than library inside livecode!
