Hi devs,
Some time ago Jerome Velociter raised a vote [1] for adding a JSON
Velocity Tool. The vote passed but the tool wasn't committed. I'd like
to do it know (for 4.0M1) with two changes:
1. Use Jackson [2] instead of json-lib [3] because it has a more recent release
2. Add only the toJSON method for now because we can use
$escapetool.javascript to accomplish the same result as toValueString
Not true, $escapetool.javascript always escapes both " and ' in a
string, and this isn't valid JSON, according to jsonlint.com (and the
JSON specification on json.org):
{"key" : "value with escaped \" and esaped \' is wrong"}
So far I used $escapetool.javascript($var).replace('\''',
'''') to fix this.
Reply quickly if you are against it.
Thanks,
Marius
