What is the best way to parse vec3s into glm::vec3

[shrikky]

I tried the following, but it didn't work.

void from_json(const json& j, glm::vec3& vec)
{
	j.at("x").get_to(vec.x);
	j.at("y").get_to(vec.y);
	j.at("z").get_to(vec.z);
}

Please help me out,
thank you :)

You need to define the from_json function in the same namespace as the type (see the README), so the following should work:

namespace glm
{

void from_json(const json& j, vec3& vec)
{
	j.at("x").get_to(vec.x);
	j.at("y").get_to(vec.y);
	j.at("z").get_to(vec.z);
}

}

that worked, I completely overlooked that. thank you very much nlohmann :)

These questions would definitely help others as well, I will leave it to you to manage labels.
