Jansson uses a single struct type to pass error information to the user.

Syntax

typedef struct json_error_t
{
  int line;
  int column;
  int position;
  char source[JSON_ERROR_SOURCE_LENGTH];
  char text[JSON_ERROR_TEXT_LENGTH];
} json_error_t;

Members

line: The line number on which the error occurred.
column: The column on which the error occurred. Note that this is the character column, not the byte column, i.e. a multibyte UTF-8 character counts as one column.
position: The position in bytes from the start of the input. This is useful for debugging Unicode encoding problems.
source[JSON_ERROR_SOURCE_LENGTH]: Source of the error. This can be (a part of) the file name or a special identifier in angle brackets (e.g. ). JSON_ERROR_SOURCE_LENGTH is 80.
text[JSON_ERROR_TEXT_LENGTH]: The error message (in UTF-8), or an empty string if a message is not available. JSON_ERROR_TEXT_LENGTH is 160.

Remarks

Note:

Note that the contents of the json_error_t type variable are usually left unspecified if the call is successful.
