    > class staj_object_iterator

A staj_object_iterator is an InputIterator that accesses the individual stream events from a staj_cursor and, provided that when it is constructed the current stream event has type begin_object, it returns the elements of the JSON object as items of type std::pair<string_type,T>. If when it is constructed the current stream event does not have type begin_object, it becomes equal to the default-constructed iterator.

Member types

Constructors

staj_object_iterator() noexcept; (1)

staj_object_iterator(staj_object_view<Key, T, Json>& view); (2)

staj_object_iterator(staj_object_view<Key, T, Json>& view,
                     std::error_code& ec);  (3)

(1) Constructs the end iterator

(2) Constructs a staj_object_iterator that refers to the first member of the object following the current stream event begin_object. If there is no such member, returns the end iterator. If a parsing error is encountered, throws a ser_error.

(3) Constructs a staj_object_iterator that refers to the first member of the object following the current stream event begin_object. If there is no such member, returns the end iterator. If a parsing error is encountered, returns the end iterator and sets ec.

Member functions

const key_value_type& operator*() const

const key_value_type* operator->() const

staj_object_iterator& operator++();
staj_object_iterator operator++(int); 
staj_object_iterator& increment(std::error_code& ec);

Advances the iterator to the next object member.

Non-member functions

template <class Key, class T, class Json>
bool operator==(const staj_object_iterator<Key, T, Json>& a, const staj_object_iterator<Key, T, Json>& b)

template <class Json, class T>
bool operator!=(const staj_object_iterator<Key, T, Json>& a, const staj_object_iterator<Key, T, Json>& b)

Examples

Iterate over a JSON object, returning key-json value pairs

const std::string example = R"(
{
   "application": "hiking",
   "reputons": [
   {
       "rater": "HikingAsylum.array_example.com",
       "assertion": "advanced",
       "rated": "Marilyn C",
       "rating": 0.90
     }
   ]
}
)";

int main()
{
    json_cursor cursor(example);

    auto view = staj_object<std::string,json>(cursor);

    for (const auto& kv : view)
    {
        std::cout << kv.first << ":\n" << pretty_print(kv.second) << "\n";
    }
    std::cout << "\n\n";
}

Output:

application:
"hiking"
reputons:
[
    {
        "assertion": "advanced",
        "rated": "Marilyn C",
        "rater": "HikingAsylum.array_example.com",
        "rating": 0.90
    }
]
