|

* How It Works
|
||||
*
|
||||
* For each JSON Object, cjson maintains a linked list of zero
|
||||
*
|
||||
* For each JSON Object, json-c maintains a linked list of zero
|
||||
* or more lh_entry (link-hash entry) structures inside the
|
||||
* Object's link-hash table (lh_table).
|
||||
*
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Each lh_entry structure on the JSON Object's linked list
|
||||
* represents a single name/value pair. The "next" field of the
|
||||
* last lh_entry in the list is set to NULL, which terminates
|
||||
* the list.
|
||||
*
|
||||
*
|
||||
* We represent a valid iterator that refers to an actual
|
||||
* name/value pair via a pointer to the pair's lh_entry
|
||||
* structure set as the iterator's opaque_ field.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* We follow cjson's current pair list representation by
|
||||
*
|
||||
* We follow json-c's current pair list representation by
|
||||
* representing a valid "end" iterator (one that refers past the
|
||||
* last pair) with a NULL value in the iterator's opaque_ field.
|
||||
*
|
||||
*
|
||||
* A JSON Object without any pairs in it will have the "head"
|
||||
* field of its lh_table structure set to NULL. For such an
|
||||
* object, json_object_iter_begin will return an iterator with
|
||||
* the opaque_ field set to NULL, which is equivalent to the
|
||||
* "end" iterator.
|
||||
*
|
||||
*
|
||||
* When iterating, we simply update the iterator's opaque_ field
|
||||
* to point to the next lh_entry structure in the linked list.
|
||||
* opaque_ will become NULL once we iterate past the last pair
