(AutoIt) Decode 2-digit Hex Escaped
Demonstrates how to replace escaped us-ascii chars such as \x7b and \x22 with the chars.
; We have the following string with some us-ascii chars escaped like this:
Local $s = "\x7b\x22responseContext\x22:\x7b\x22"
; Note: The above escaping does not conform to any standard format (as far as I know).
; Chilkat does not have anything to decode from the above.
; However, we can 1st transform into a standard format, and then decode..
; JSON escapes chars outside us-ascii like this: "Hello, \ud83d\ude03!"
; We can transform the above to this: "\u007b\u0022responseContext\u0022:\u007b\u0022"
; And then decode..
$oSb = ObjCreate("Chilkat.StringBuilder")
$oSb.Append($s)
Local $iNumReplaced = $oSb.Replace("\x","\u00")
; Now decode from "json" escapes
$oSb.Decode("json","utf-8")
; Show the decoded string
ConsoleWrite($oSb.GetAsString() & @CRLF)
; Here's the result: {"responseContext":{"
