I request a JSON response from a home controlling device:
NSData* responseData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url];
The JSON data in responseData is complete and valid. However, if I try
NSDictionary* dict = [NSJSONSerialization
JSONObjectWithData:responseData
options:kNilOptions
error:&error];
NSLog("Error: %@", error);
it gives me the following error:
Error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 “The operation couldn’t be completed. (Cocoa error 3840.)” (Duplicate key for object around character 0.) UserInfo=0x6a8b8e0 {NSDebugDescription=Duplicate key for object around character 0.}
I searched the web but couldn’t find anything helpful so far.
Edit: The JSON response it quite long, so instead of posting it here, please find it here.
It looks like the JSON is fine by pasting it into http://jsonformat.com/ – maybe you found an Apple bug? Another way to try and validate would be to use a third-party iOS library and see if it gives you the same error? Say, TouchJSON?
