I am using the WINK implementation shipped with WebSphere V8. I have came
across an issue that I think may be a possible bug. I am also using JSON
Jackson that is shipped as part of WebSphere runtime for JSON/Object
conversions.
When I have the following line in my handler:
return Response.ok(user.getName()).build();
I get the following exception on the client when I try to get the Name value
org.codehaus.jackson.JsonParseException: Unexpected character ('c' (code 99)):
....
Looking at my response I see the name Doe,Jhon there. Note that the name String
is not quoted and hence the parser fails.
Now if I go and change my server code to
return Response.ok("\""+user.getName()+"\"").build();
The response would look as "Doe,John" and hence all works and I get no
exception on the client side.
When one or more Java objects are returned as part of response in 'ok' method,
I see all property name and values as quoted and not sure why a single String
value is not.
I am not sure whether this is a bug in JSON provider [JSON Jackson shipped in
WebSphere] I use on the Server or a bug in WINK.
