Size limit for JSON and XML parsing?

[brycegodfrey]

I'm trying to parse a large body of data, and have been unable to do it using JSON.parse or XmlDocument2 due to its large size.

Javascript compiler exception: WrappedException of java.io.UTFDataFormatException: encoded string too long: 278472 bytes in: ....

Is there a system setting I can use to turn this up or another API to get around this limitation?   I'm on Fuji patch 8

Have you tried both of the following?

Option 1 (uses JavaScript):

var json = new JSON();

var jsObj = json.decode(stringValue);

Option 2 (uses Java):

var json = new JSONParser();

var jsObj = json.parse(stringValue);

Yeah, just tried both those and get the same error.

Where are you getting the JSON text from?

200KB+ is a lot of data..

I'm having the same issue here. The data is coming in from our asset management tool through a SOAP call. The payload field (in the ECC Queue) is a special field designated to allow massive amounts of data. However, as I'm getting back ~60mb worth of data, any attempts to parse or manipulate the response/payload data ends up in errors:

Like when trying to create a new XMLDocument(soap_response):

Problem when trying to get a Rhino object: java.lang.RuntimeException: String object has exceeded max size of 16777216: org.mozilla.javascript.ScriptableObject.examineSize(ScriptableObject.java:2173)

Or when trying to convert the response to a JSON object:

java.lang.RuntimeException: String object has exceeded max size of 16777216

All of the data is in ServiceNow (and in less than 30 seconds), but it seems that I don't have any way of manipulating it.

I have a HI ticket open, but has anyone seen this before and have a solution? (Besides limiting my SOAP return!)
