Re: YAJL

In the HTTP protocol, one can use content-length, or chunked, or connection close when reading data.

In this case, the response is sent as chunked, as indicated by Transfer-Encoding: chunked.

In this case, there is a length, followed by payload, any number of this combination, followed by 0 to indicate end of data.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [WEB400] YAJL
I have an RPGLE program creating JSON using YAJL. When I dump the buffer to
the IFS, the data is correct.  However, when I return it to my app or
Fiddler (with Fiddler I can look at the raw hex coming back), it has extra
characters before and after the JSON data.



Below  is the complete response that I am receiving.  Any idea where the 13e
in the middle and the 0 at the end are coming from?  These are not in the
buffer when I dump it to the IFS.  I am guessing this is somehow related to
a configuration of the HTTP server but since I don't know what the
characters are, I don't know what to look for to know how to turn them off.
