Re: YAJL JSON Parser

[Scott Klement <rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It sounds like you are using DATA-INTO with case=convert... so the 
DATA-INTO opcode (this part isn't handled by YAJL) is converting _id 
into just id, therefore they are both mapped to the same field.   
Depending on your document, you may be able to use case=any or 
case=lower instead.

If you call YAJL routines directly instead of using DATA-INTO, this 
would be a non-issue.

If you can't use case=any/lower for your needs, I could potentially make 
a small change to YAJLINTO that adds a prefix onto keys that start with 
the _ character so that RPG doesn't just strip it off.
