ultrajson.h - Added support for detecting overflow scenario when a PyLong bigger than 64-bits signed is supposed to be converted to such. Now a proper Python exception is thrown 2011-09-19 17:30:35 +02:00
ultrajsondec.c fix an issue where loading numbers between 2**31 and 2**32 became negative signed values rather than the right value (for instance, try ujson.loads('{"id":3590016419}') and you will get {u'id': -704950877}) 2011-12-05 17:29:18 -05:00

README 

UltraJSON is a fast and extendable JSON encoder and decoder written in pure C

Python bindings are available as the module ujson (through easy_install / pypi):
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ujson/


Installation instructions:

1. Build and install ujson Python extension (requires root)
Go to <root>/python
Type: python setup.py build install  

2. Run tests (as needed)
Type: python tests.py

Same instructions applies for Windows except that step 1) isn't necessary since
a prebuilt static library is included.
