3827,Embeded null written as \0 rather than \u0000 in property_tree::write_json,Michael Anderson <drmikeando@…>,Sebastian Redl,"Here's an example
{{{
#include ""boost/property_tree/json_parser.hpp""
#include ""boost/array.hpp""

int main()
{
  boost::property_tree::ptree pt;
  // Some random data to encode
  boost::array<unsigned char, 8> data = { 3,0,'W','A',0,'M',255,'z' };
  pt.put(""binary"", std::string(data.begin(), data.end() ) );
  boost::property_tree::write_json(std::cout, pt );
}
}}}

This produces the output
{{{
{
    ""binary"": ""\u0003\0WA\0M\uFFFFz""
}
}}}
but from the description of JSON strings at http://www.json.org/
and the more detailed version at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt
it would appear that the correct encoding of the 0 character is 
\u00000 rather than \0 ( which is correctly handled for other non-prinatable characters. )
