Is it possible to assign references to objects in JSON? I have data that looks like this:
[{
name:"name",
Parent:[{
name:"parentName"
Parent:[{
.....//and so on
}]
}]
}]
I need to traverse it in JavaScript and also change the person’s name. How can I do this?
You can’t. You can specify the path to the parent as a string and evaluate that at runtime, but as JSON is just strings, integers, arrays, and dictionaries, you can’t use references.
