/*! \class wxJSONReader
 \brief The JSON parser

 The class is a JSON parser which reads a JSON formatted text and stores
 values in the \c wxJSONValue structure.
 The ctor accepts two parameters: the \e style flag, which controls how
 much error-tolerant should the parser be and an integer which is
 the maximum number of errors and warnings that have to be reported
 (the default is 30).

 If the JSON text document does not contain an open/close JSON character the
 function returns an \b invalid value object; in other words, the
 wxJSONValue::IsValid() function returns FALSE.
 This is the case of a document that is empty or contains only
 whitespaces or comments.
 If the document contains a starting object/array character immediatly
 followed by a closing object/array character
 (i.e.: \c {}) then the function returns an \b empty array or object
 JSON value.
 This is a valid JSON object of type wxJSONTYPE_OBJECT or wxJSONTYPE_ARRAY
 whose wxJSONValue::Size() function returns ZERO.

 \par JSON text

 The wxJSON parser just skips all characters read from the
 input JSON text until the start-object '{' or start-array '[' characters
 are encontered (see the GetStart() function).
 This means that the JSON input text may contain anything
 before the first start-object/array character except these two chars themselves
 unless they are included in a C/C++ comment.
 Comment lines that apear before the first start array/object character,
 are non ignored if the parser is constructed with the wxJSONREADER_STORE_COMMENT
 flag: they are added to the comment's array of the root JSON value.

 Note that the parsing process stops when the internal DoRead() function
 returns. Because that function is recursive, the top-level close-object
 '}' or close-array ']' character cause the top-level DoRead() function
 to return thus stopping the parsing process regardless the EOF condition.
 This means that the JSON input text may contain anything \b after
 the top-level close-object/array character.
 Here are some examples:

 Returns a wxJSONTYPE_INVALID value (invalid JSON value)
 \code
   // this text does not contain an open array/object character
 \endcode

 Returns a wxJSONTYPE_OBJECT value of Size() = 0
 \code
   {
   }
 \endcode

 Returns a wxJSONTYPE_ARRAY value of Size() = 0
 \code
   [
   ]
 \endcode

 Text before and after the top-level open/close characters is ignored.
 \code
   This non-JSON text does not cause the parser to report errors or warnings
   {
   }
   This non-JSON text does not cause the parser to report errors or warnings
 \endcode


 \par Extensions

 The wxJSON parser recognizes all JSON text plus some extensions
 that are not part of the JSON syntax but that many other JSON
 implementations do recognize.
 If the input text contains the following non-JSON text, the parser
 reports the situation as \e warnings and not as \e errors unless
 the parser object was constructed with the wxJSONREADER_STRICT
 flag. In the latter case the wxJSON parser is not tolerant.

 \li C/C++ comments: the parser recognizes C and C++ comments.
    Comments can optionally be stored in the value they refer
    to and can also be written back to the JSON text document.
    To know more about comment storage see \ref wxjson_comments

 \li case tolerance: JSON syntax states that the literals \c null,
    \c true and \c false must be lowercase; the wxJSON parser
    also recognizes mixed case literals such as, for example,
    \b Null or \b FaLSe.  A \e warning is emitted.

 \li wrong or missing closing character: wxJSON parser is tolerant
    about the object / array closing character. When an open-array
    character '[' is encontered, the parser expects the
    corresponding close-array character ']'. If the character
    encontered is a close-object char '}' a warning is reported.
    A warning is also reported if the character is missing when
    the end-of-file is reached.

 \li multi-line strings: this feature allows a JSON string type to be
    splitted in two or more lines as in the standard C/C++
    languages. The drawback is that this feature is error-prone
    and you have to use it with care.
    For more info about this topic read \ref wxjson_tutorial_style_split

 Note that you can control how much error-tolerant should the parser be
 and also you can specify how many and what extensions are recognized.
 See the constructor's parameters for more details.

 \par Unicode vs ANSI

 The parser can read JSON text from two very different kind of objects:

 \li a string object (\b wxString)
 \li a stream object (\b wxInputStream)

 When the input is from a string object, the character represented in the
 string is platform- and mode- dependant; in other words, characters are
 represented differently: in ANSI builds they depend on the charset in use
 and in Unicode builds they depend on the platform (UCS-2 on win32, UCS-4
 or UTF-8 on GNU/Linux).

 When the input is from a stream object, the only recognized encoding format
 is UTF-8 for both ANSI and Unicode builds.

 \par Example:

 \code
  wxJSONValue  value;
  wxJSONReader reader;

  // open a text file that contains the UTF-8 encoded JSON text
  wxFFileInputStream jsonText(_T("filename.utf8"), _T("r"));

  // read the file
  int numErrors = reader.Parse(jsonText, &value);

  if (numErrors > 0)  {
    ::MessageBox(_T("Error reading the input file"));
  }
 \endcode

 Starting from version 1.1.0 the wxJSON reader and the writer has changed in
 their internal organization.
 To know more about ANSI and Unicode mode read \ref wxjson_tutorial_unicode.

//! Ctor
/*!
 Construct a JSON parser object with the given parameters.

 JSON parser objects should always be constructed on the stack but
 it does not hurt to have a global JSON parser.

 \param flags this paramter controls how much error-tolerant should the
        parser be

 \param maxErrors the maximum number of errors (and warnings, too) that are
    reported by the parser. When the number of errors reaches this limit,
    the parser stops to read the JSON input text and no other error is
    reported.

 The \c flag parameter is the combination of ZERO or more of the
 following constants OR'ed toghether:

 \li wxJSONREADER_ALLOW_COMMENTS: C/C++ comments are recognized by the
     parser; a warning is reported by the parser
 \li wxJSONREADER_STORE_COMMENTS: C/C++ comments, if recognized, are
     stored in the value they refer to and can be rewritten back to
     the JSON text
 \li wxJSONREADER_CASE: the parser recognizes mixed-case literal strings
 \li wxJSONREADER_MISSING: the parser allows missing or wrong close-object
     and close-array characters
 \li wxJSONREADER_MULTISTRING: strings may be splitted in two or more
     lines
 \li wxJSONREADER_COMMENTS_AFTER: if STORE_COMMENTS if defined, the parser
     assumes that comment lines apear \b before the value they
     refer to unless this constant is specified. In the latter case,
     comments apear \b after the value they refer to.
 \li wxJSONREADER_NOUTF8_STREAM: suppress UTF-8 conversion when reading a
         string value from a stream: the reader assumes that the input stream
         is encoded in ANSI format and not in UTF-8; only meaningfull in ANSI
         builds, this flag is simply ignored in Unicode builds.

 You can also use the following shortcuts to specify some predefined
 flag's combinations:

  \li wxJSONREADER_STRICT: all wxJSON extensions are reported as errors, this
      is the same as specifying a ZERO value as \c flags.
  \li wxJSONREADER_TOLERANT: this is the same as ALLOW_COMMENTS | CASE |
      MISSING | MULTISTRING; all wxJSON extensions are turned on but comments
      are not stored in the value objects.

 \par Example:

 The following code fragment construct a JSON parser, turns on all
 wxJSON extensions and also stores C/C++ comments in the value object
 they refer to. The parser assumes that the comments apear before the
 value:

 \code
   wxJSONReader reader(wxJSONREADER_TOLERANT | wxJSONREADER_STORE_COMMENTS);
   wxJSONValue  root;
   int numErrors = reader.Parse(jsonText, &root);
 \endcode
*/
wxJSONReader::wxJSONReader(int flags, int maxErrors) {
    m_flags     = flags;
    m_maxErrors = maxErrors;
    m_noUtf8    = false;
#if !defined(wxJSON_USE_UNICODE)
    // in ANSI builds we can suppress UTF-8 conversion for both the writer and the reader
    if (m_flags & wxJSONREADER_NOUTF8_STREAM)    {
        m_noUtf8 = true;
    }
#endif
}

//! Dtor - does nothing
wxJSONReader::~wxJSONReader() {
}

//! Parse the JSON document.
/*!
 The two overloaded versions of the \c Parse() function read a
 JSON text stored in a wxString object or in a wxInputStream
 object.

 If \c val is a NULL pointer, the function does not store the
 values: it can be used as a JSON checker in order to check the
 syntax of the document.
 Returns the number of \b errors found in the document.
 If the returned value is ZERO and the parser was constructed
 with the \c wxJSONREADER_STRICT flag, then the parsed document
 is \e well-formed and it only contains valid JSON text.

 If the \c wxJSONREADER_TOLERANT flag was used in the parser's
 constructor, then a return value of ZERO
 does not mean that the document is \e well-formed because it may
 contain comments and other extensions that are not fatal for the
 wxJSON parser but other parsers may fail to recognize.
 You can use the \c GetWarningCount() function to know how many
 wxJSON extensions are present in the JSON input text.

 Note that the JSON value object \c val is not cleared by this
 function unless its type is of the wrong type.
 In other words, if \c val is of type wxJSONTYPE_ARRAY and it already
 contains 10 elements and the input document starts with a
 '[' (open-array char) then the elements read from the document are
 \b appended to the existing ones.

 On the other hand, if the text document starts with a '{' (open-object) char
 then this function must change the type of the \c val object to
 \c wxJSONTYPE_OBJECT and the old content of 10 array elements will be lost.

 \par Different input types

 The real parsing process in done using UTF-8 streams. If the input is
 from a \b wxString object, the Parse function first converts the input string
 in a temporary \b wxMemoryInputStream which contains the UTF-8 conversion
 of the string itself.
 Next, the overloaded Parse function is called.

 @param doc    the JSON text that has to be parsed
 @param val    the wxJSONValue object that contains the parsed text; if NULL the
         parser do not store anything but errors and warnings are reported
 @return the total number of errors encontered

//! Read a string value
/*!
 The function reads a string value from input stream and it is
 called by the \c DoRead() function when it enconters the
 double quote characters.
 The function read all bytes up to the next double quotes
 (unless it is escaped) and stores them in a temporary UTF-8
 memory buffer.
 Also, the function processes the escaped characters defined
 in the JSON syntax.

 Next, the function tries to convert the UTF-8 buffer to a
 \b wxString object using the \b wxString::FromUTF8 function.
 Depending on the build mode, we can have the following:
 \li in Unicode the function always succeeds, provided that the
    buffer contains valid UTF-8 code units.

 \li in ANSI builds the conversion may fail because of the presence of
    unrepresentable characters in the current locale. In this case,
    the default behaviour is to perform a char-by-char conversion; every
    char that cannot be represented in the current locale is stored as
    \e unicode \e escaped \e sequence

 \li in ANSI builds, if the reader is constructed with the wxJSONREADER_NOUTF8_STREAM
     then no conversion takes place and the UTF-8 temporary buffer is simply
     \b copied to the \b wxString object

 The string is, finally, stored in the provided wxJSONValue argument
 provided that it is empty or it contains a string value.
 This is because the parser class recognizes multi-line strings
 like the following one:
 \code
   [
      "This is a very long string value which is splitted into more"
      "than one line because it is more human readable"
   ]
 \endcode
 Because of the lack of the value separator (,) the parser
 assumes that the string was splitted into several double-quoted
 strings.
 If the value does not contain a string then an error is
 reported.
 Splitted strings cause the parser to report a warning.

 This function implements a simple variant
 of the \b strtoll C-library function.
 I needed this implementation because the wxString::To(U)LongLong
 function does not work on my system:

  \li GNU/Linux Fedora Core 6
  \li GCC version 4.1.1
  \li libc.so.6

 The wxWidgets library (actually I have installed version 2.8.7)
 relies on \b strtoll in order to do the conversion from a string
 to a long long integer but, in fact, it does not work because
 the 'wxHAS_STRTOLL' macro is not defined on my system.
 The problem only affects the Unicode builds while it seems
 that the wxString::To(U)LongLong function works in ANSI builds.

 Note that this implementation is not a complete substitute of the
 strtoll function because it only converts decimal strings (only base
 10 is implemented).
