To All,

It was a productive conference and it was great seeing old friends.
Even got to make a few new ones!

Hope we can do it again soon.

Any info on parsing incoming JSON.

We discussed this at length and we determined that parsing JSON is a bit different than parsing XML.

Alaska software has a Var2JSON() function which creates JSON from any type of variable.
eXpress++ has DC_Object2JS(), DC_Value2JS() and DC_Array2JS() functions.

I assumed that if Alaska has a Var2JSON() function then they probably have a JSON2Var() function.
Well they do, but it is undocumented.

We gave it a try in XDOT and every time it returned the same value: "NIY"

We assume this means "Not Invented Yet".

Apparently, parsing JSON is not so straight forward.
Regardless, I decided that I will look into this and see if I can create a DC_JS2ObjectTree() function that works like DC_XML2ObjectTree().

I still don't know how to publish a 360 degree photosphere JPG yet.
I'm going to be very busy for a few weeks.
It will take research.

Ok, just never seen one before...
