[JSON][json-org] is a lightweight data-interchange format. It can represent

numbers, strings, ordered sequences of values, and collections of name/value

pairs.

[json-org]: http://json.org/

JsonCpp is a C++ library that allows manipulating JSON values, including

serialization and deserialization to and from strings. It can also preserve

existing comment in unserialization/serialization steps, making it a convenient

format to store user input files.

## Documentation

[JsonCpp documentation][JsonCpp-documentation] is generated using [Doxygen][].

## A note on backward-compatibility

* `1.y.z` is built with C++11.

* `0.y.z` can be used with older compilers.

* `00.11.z` can be used both in old and new compilers.

* Major versions maintain binary-compatibility.

### Special note

The branch `00.11.z`is a new branch, its major version number `00` is to show that it is

different from `0.y.z` and `1.y.z`, the main purpose of this branch is to make a balance

between the other two branches. Thus, users can use some new features in this new branch

that introduced in 1.y.z, but can hardly applied into 0.y.z.

## Using JsonCpp in your project

### The vcpkg dependency manager

You can download and install JsonCpp using the [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/) dependency manager:

    git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git

    cd vcpkg

    ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh

    ./vcpkg integrate install

    ./vcpkg install jsoncpp

The JsonCpp port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors. If the version is out of date, please [create an issue or pull request](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) on the vcpkg repository.
