Question

I have a JSON string from PHP’s json_encode(). This is how it looks in JSONViewer.stack.hu, and this is how it looks in the browser.

Is it possible to use NSJSONSerialization to download the JSON data directly? If so, I am going to save the downloaded JSON data to SQLite by using FMDB.

id jsonObjectFromUrlString(NSString *urlString)
{
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString];
    NSError *error = nil;
    id jsonObject = nil;
    NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url options:NSDataReadingUncached error:&error];
    if(error)
        NSLog(@"%@", error);
    else
        jsonObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers error:&error];
    if(error)
        NSLog(@"%@", error);
    return jsonObject;
}
