DecodeJsonObjectString

Interface AntViewDocument

 

Type: Method

Parameters: String JsonValue

Returns: String

 

 

Decode escaped text in the JSON object passed.

When data is put into a JSON object, some characters are automatically escaped in order to not disrupt the JSON object.

If you then get back that data directly as a JSON string, it might not exactly look like you expected.

This is a helper function to decode the JSON object back into a string to get the actual data that you are looking for.

 

The following characters are decoded by this function:

- \b, backspace character

- \n, newline character

- \f, formfeed character

- \r, carriage return character

- \t, horizontal tab character

- \", double quote character

- \/, forward slash

 

If JsonValue has double or single quotes around the whole JSON object string, then the quotes will be removed. (So only the outside string, not any name/value pairs)

 

If the JSON object in JsonValue returns "null" then this function will return an empty string.
