FLEX AS3 convert JSON to array

Question

I have the following JSON string:

"["Dog","Cat","Mouse","Monkey","Horse"]"

I want to create a string array in ActionScript from this. Is this possible in AS3?

JSON.parse() converts from JSON to AS3, and JSON.stringify() does the opposite.

You can use a JSON parser like as3corelib to extract the data.

example:

var results:Array = JSON.decode(urlloader.data).result;

for each(var youritem:Object in results) {
    trace(youritem.codeD);
}

There is a native support for JSON in Actionscript for quite a long time. No need to use 3rd party libs
