Detailed Description

Abstract base class of a JSON value.

A JSON document is composed of one value (usually of type "object" or "array"). JSON is defined by RFC 8259.

This implementation is simple and basic.

Fetching a non-existent element, field or whatever always fails silently by returning a reference to a "null" value. Thus, it is possible to access a complex chain of references without caring about intermediate errors. At the end, a "null" value will be returned.

Floating-point values are not yet implemented. Reading a number always give a null object.
