JSON Data Type
This data type allows seamless integration between JSON messages and the filter/transformer scripts which are JavaScript-based. When using the JSON data type, the msg / tmp variables will be a standard JavaScript object, as opposed to an E4X XML object which some other data types use. Since JSON is a very lightweight data format, and the transition from String to JavaScript Object is all handled automatically, no serialization properties are needed.

The script must return a string containing the next message, or a null/empty string to indicate end of input. For additional information, see JavaScript Batch Script. |
