How to emit a JSON object? about socket.io-client-cpp

[melode11]

This macro is just for unit-test.
However there's indeed no direct interfaces receiving JSON object because this lib is not going to be depended on any JSON libraries at interface level.
The correct way is to convert your json object/array to object_message or array_message.

melode11, thank you for the answer. However, I still don't know how to send an object_message. The constructor of this class takes empty input, and it only has get_map() method, so "set_map()", so how can I input a set of key:value pair?

I spent some time to debug the code, still could not find a workaround to send a JSON object (instead of a string in quotations). Could you please give an example of how to do that?

[melode11]

get_map gives the internal map reference, you can set any string - message key-value pair into it.
or just

object_map_ptr->get_map() = your_map;

[melode11]

suppose you got a json:

{
   name:'Bob',
   friends:['Tom','Jim']
}

you need to concrete a object_message with below structure:

object_message:
           |__name(string): bob(string_message)
           |__friends(string):array_message:Tom(string_message), Jim(string_message)

Do I explained clearly?

Yes, I followed your suggestion and it works. Thanks again!

@melode11
Hi, how will it be able to communicate with sock.io(js version) in this way?
