无法解析具有巨大价值的JSON

Question

In my JSON I have 4 root values. 3 of them are parsed just good. The 4th dict is not even in the result. In this dict there is a UTF-8 string with key "base64" which length is 50915 symbols.

This happens only on the server (PHP 5.3.*), on my local (PHP 5.4.4) all works fine. What the hell is going on? Is there a limit on one object size?

Code

$json   = new Services_JSON(SERVICES_JSON_LOOSE_TYPE);
$result = $json->decode($var);

Answer 1

I think you should use json_decode instead.

As far as I know, the PEAR library to handle JSON was build because there were no proper way to handle JSON before PHP 5.1. I think you can leave this library aside and use json_* function instead.
