YAJL JSON Parser (Objective-C Bindings)

June 15, 2009 — 4 Comments

I recently was investigating using a more lightweight JSON parser for iPhone projects (other than the standard SBJSON library) and came across the YAJL C JSON library. While using it as a document style parser didn’t result in a huge performance gain, it does a support a streaming “SAX” style parser which might help memory usage in larger documents.

Hopefully, sometime soon I will do some performance comparisons. In the meantime, if you try these bindings, let me know how it goes. You can find it on github at: http://github.com/gabriel/yajl-objc.

So is there no generator in the obj-c bindings? Only a parser?

Yeah, right now, only parsing…
