Hi, Like Erik says the input is indeed illegal JSON. JSON strings are delimited using double quotes not single quotes. There is no way around this, this is not optional.
As Peter says, STON is more flexible. STON itself uses single quotes to be closer to Smalltalk. STON in its JSON compatibility mode does also recognise double quotes. So the class STONReader supports both, without further configuration.
