json_parse_file Subroutine

private subroutine json_parse_file(json, file, p, unit)

Parse the JSON file and populate the json_value tree.

Inputs

The inputs can be:

  • file & unit : the specified unit is used to read JSON from file. [note if unit is already open, then the filename is ignored]
  • file : JSON is read from file using internal unit number

Example

    type(json_core) :: json
    type(json_value),pointer :: p
    call json%parse(file='myfile.json', p=p)

History

  • Jacob Williams : 01/13/2015 : added read from string option.
  • Izaak Beekman : 03/08/2015 : moved read from string to separate subroutine, and error annotation to separate subroutine.

Arguments

Type IntentOptional AttributesName
class(json_core), intent(inout) :: json
character(kind=CDK,len=*), intent(in) :: file

JSON file name

type(json_value), pointer:: p

output structure

integer(kind=IK), intent(in), optional :: unit

file unit number (/= 0)
