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.

Objective-C

#import <NSString.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>
#import <CkoStringBuilder.h>

BOOL success = NO;

NSString *s = @"{ \"example\": \"\\u05d1\\u05d3\\u05d9\\u05e7\" }";

CkoJsonObject *json = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];

success = [json Load: s];

//  When getting the member data, it is automatically decoded.
NSLog(@"%@%@",@"member data: ",[json StringOf: @"example"]);

//  Output:
//  member data: בדיק

//  When getting the full JSON, it remains encoded. This is expected and intentional.
NSLog(@"%@%@",@"full JSON: ",[json Emit]);

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

//  To get the full JSON without the encoding, you can decode manually.
CkoStringBuilder *sb = [[CkoStringBuilder alloc] init];
[json EmitSb: sb];
//  The hex encoding used by JSON is utf-8.
[sb Decode: @"json" charset: @"utf-8"];

NSLog(@"%@",[sb GetAsString]);

//  Output:
//  {"example":"בדיק"}
