Lukasz Lenart updated WW-4301:
------------------------------

    Description: 
I found this issue when using server-side processing with JQuery Datatables and 
attempting to populate.  

Say I have this getter/field on my action:
{code:java}
public List<List<String>> getListOfLists() {
        return listOfLists;
}
{code}
My struts.xml is defined as follows:
{code:xml}
<action name="GetData" method="loadData"
class="com.example.web.action.WebAction">
        <result type="json" >
                <param name="ignoreHierarchy">false</param>
                <param 
name="includeProperties">listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]</param>
        </result>
</action>
{code}
However, the include patterns that are constructed within JSONUtil are not 
accurate.  Instead of making the expected pattern that would work:
{noformat}
listOfLists
listOfLists\[\d+\]
listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]
{noformat}
Only the following are created:
{noformat}
listOfLists\[\d+\]
listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]
{noformat}
Because the first "listOfLists" is not created, the property is excluded in the 
results.

This all happens because of line 463 in JSONUtil:
{code:java}
addPattern(results, patternExpr.substring(0, 
patternExpr.lastIndexOf(includePatternData.get(ARRAY_BEGIN_STRING).get(type))), 
type);
{code}
Since we're going at the last index of the ARRAY_BEGIN_STRING string, it's 
skipping the first index.  This could be updated to be smarter to build the 
include patterns as expected.
