For example: \ struct package { string name; }; struct configuration { uint64_t id; string path; optional name; bool default; vector packages; }; \ An example of the serialized JSON representation of \cb{struct} \cb{configuration}: \ { \"id\": 1, \"path\": \"/tmp/hello-gcc\", \"name\": \"gcc\", \"default\": true, \"packages\": [ { \"name\": \"hello\" } ] } \ This sections provides details on the overall properties of such formats and the semantics of the \cb{struct} serialization. The order of members in a JSON object is fixed as specified in the corresponding \cb{struct}. While new members may be added in the future (and should be ignored by older consumers), the semantics of the existing members (including whether the top-level entry is an object or array) may not change. An object member is required unless its type is \cb{optional<>}, \cb{bool}, or \cb{vector<>} (array). For \cb{bool} members absent means \cb{false}. For \cb{vector<>} members absent means empty. An empty top-level array is always present. For example, the following JSON text is a possible serialization of the above \cb{struct} \cb{configuration}: \ { \"id\": 1, \"path\": \"/tmp/hello-gcc\" } \ " } }
