GitHub – paolo-rossi/delphi-neon: JSON Serialization library for Delphi

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/30

Like many of the post Delphi 2007 Delphi RTL features, replacements are so much better in functionality and stability.

One of those replacement examples is [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – paolo-rossi/delphi-neon: JSON Serialization library for Delphi

It reminds me of

[Wayback/Archive] GitHub – JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json: Json.NET is a popular high-performance JSON framework for .NET which was way better than the original .NET JSON support. The .NET framework has improved greatly since then. Delphi JSON support hasn’t.

Delphi/C# reencode textfiles: some links as I thought I published sources, but didn’t

A long time ago (likely around 2009) I remember writing some code to re-encode text files in both Delphi and C#.

Somehow I thought I had published both, but I could only find parts of the C# code back in .NET/C# – converting UTF8 to ASCII (yes, you can loose information with this) using System.Text.Encoding.

So here are some links just in case I ever want to reproduce it in Delphi too (and a reminder to always perform this using TStream derivatives, never use TStrings or derivatives like TStringList for this):
