No, this is a misunderstanding. There is no requirement that the sequence *as a whole* is well-formed UTF-8 text. For example, if the first JSON text is written only in part for whatever reason (system crash, etc.) to a log file, the next process can write a 0x1E byte and carry on. > I.e. the blob, to be compliant with this document, MUST be UTF-8 encoded JSON. The possible-JSON part is either UTF-8 encoded JSON or it's arbitrary junk. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan [email protected] Said Agatha Christie / To E.
