9 years ago By the way, the example files for testing doesn't correspond with what's in the spec. Everything here seems to be a mess, https://github.com/thebuzzmedia/universal-binary-json/tree/master/tests
I suggest, those be removed. I used Python to write a couple of tests and did a lot of cross-reference testing with http://dmitry-ra.github.io/ubjson-test-suite/json-converter.html#{%22arr%22:[1,2.5,3]}

9 years ago Absolutely the right place to announce this, thank you for the contribution!
I added a link to the /libraries page - http://ubjson.org/libraries/
Also you are right about the old Draft 8 examples - I just erased all the .UBJ files to avoid confusion.

9 years ago @WhiZTiM protoc is another C++ library, which in addition to UBJSON (albeit only Draft 9) also handles other formats such as JSON, MsgPack and Transenc.

9 years ago Bjorn - on the protoc website I don't see any explicit mention of UBJSON, just 'JSON' -- is there a mistake?

9 years ago Cool beans!
As the author if the C implementation can I ask what about it did not satisfy your use cases? Is there any way you found the API to be lacking?
Hi everyone, Not sure if this is the proper place to announce this, but nonetheless:
I did a brief study on the various binary alternatives to JSON, and UBJSON happened to be one of those that caught my attention.
For UBJSON, I checked out the libraries available, (Particularly the C and Qt libraries). I honestly didn't find them easy to use in its form... Don't get me wrong, they are great libraries written by awesome developers better than myself. But I felt I had the time to write a C++14 (specific) library from scratch.
Hence I have spent some time writing this, UbjsonCpp -> https://github.com/WhiZTiM/UbjsonCpp Obviously its just an alpha version, there's a lot of refactoring and cleanup to do.
The significant feature of the library that is different from the current C++ implementations are:
Prior to writing this, I implemented a serialization format (I derived) that is purely a variant of both UBJSON and MSGPACK [http://msgpack.org]. But, I felt it's good if I give back to the both communities, starting with UBJSON.
I would love to have your comments, feedback and reviews. They will encourage me further work on the library or discourage me to abandon it.
Regards, Timothy
