19 * Serialize and deserialize folly::dynamic values as JSON.
21 * Before you use this you should probably understand the basic
22 * concepts in the JSON type system:
24 * Value : String | Bool | Null | Object | Array | Number
25 * String : UTF-8 sequence
26 * Object : (String, Value) pairs, with unique String keys
27 * Array : ordered list of Values
30 * Number : (representation unspecified)
32 * ... That's about it. For more information see http://json.org or
35 * If your dynamic has anything illegal with regard to this type
36 * system, the serializer will throw.
