(.NET Core C#) JSON Hex Encoding

See more JSON Examples

Let's say your JSON contains content that is hex encoded like this: \u05d1\u05d3\u05d9\u05e7

This example shows how to get the decoded string.

string s = "{ \"example\": \"\\u05d1\\u05d3\\u05d9\\u05e7\" }";

Chilkat.JsonObject json = new Chilkat.JsonObject();

bool success = json.Load(s);

// When getting the member data, it is automatically decoded.
Debug.WriteLine("member data: " + json.StringOf("example"));

// Output:
// member data: בדיק

// When getting the full JSON, it remains encoded. This is expected and intentional.
Debug.WriteLine("full JSON: " + json.Emit());

// Output:
// full JSON: {"example":"\u05d1\u05d3\u05d9\u05e7"}

// To get the full JSON without the encoding, you can decode manually.
Chilkat.StringBuilder sb = new Chilkat.StringBuilder();
json.EmitSb(sb);
// The hex encoding used by JSON is utf-8.
sb.Decode("json","utf-8");

Debug.WriteLine(sb.GetAsString());

// Output:
// {"example":"בדיק"}
