JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)

Eintrag zuletzt aktualisiert am: 09.11.2006

"JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language." (http://json.org/)

JSON wird eingesetzt in der Microsoft AJAX Library und den ASP.NET AJAX Extensions.
