ASF GitHub Bot commented on TINKERPOP-1274: ------------------------------------------- Github user spmallette commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/351 I thought that java integer would be implied. I believe that if we wrote a java short for example it would type to a "Short" then you would know what kind of number it is. We purposely went away from the fully qualified class name which really doesn't mean much to non-JVM languages in favor of the more brief and less scary simple name - I thought we had decided that a smaller byte size for the network outweighed the downside of being less specific about the type. no? > I would also like to point out that this format [{"@class":"java.lang.Integer"}, 1] can be a pain in systems that do not necessarily order lists. I seem to remember that we discussed that before but don't remember the outcome - @newkek do you remember what was said? > GraphSON Version 2.0 > -------------------- > > Key: TINKERPOP-1274 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1274 > Project: TinkerPop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: io > Affects Versions: 3.1.2-incubating > Reporter: stephen mallette > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.2.1 > > > Develop a revised version of GraphSON that provides better support for > non-JVM languages that consume it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
