I am trying to develop a console application which is a console application. In that application I need one param which must be as JSON. The value can be as {"intype":"1","name":"John O'Neil","val":"Test123","ordnr":"Invoice # 123","trannr":"000001675611"}. On that, if I call GetOptionValue('myparam') I receive as {"intype":"1","name":"John ONeil,val:Test123,ordnr:Invoice. How can I get full value as it is? As I have to parse the JSON. The single quote of name is breaking the whole thing. This is how I am executing it:
./project1 -tranvalues '{"intype":"1","name":"John O'Neil","val":"Test123","ordnr":"Invoice # 123","trannr":"000001675611"}'

In your JSON string you could replace your single quote in "John O'Neil" by:
- 2 single quotes
- an escape sequence \'
- a unicode \u0027
It requires to prepare the JSON string before to use it as parameter of course :/

This is what my client said:
"There are standards for sending data in JSON based on URL Encoding. Your system has to support those standards. Using \'' etc. is not to the standards."
So in JSON I can force my client to put
- 2 single quotes
- an escape sequence \'

How can I convert that single quote? As in GetOptionValue when ever single quote find it breaks whole line.
Sternas Stefanos Please help. Where are you?
