[json-lib-user] Problem collecting elements of identical name in a array

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi!

I'm trying to write JSON from an existing XML document and got a problem
with collecting all the elements with identical names. If my identical named
elements are the only ones in the same depth in the XML document, the parser
has no problem converting the document.
But if I have several siblings where a couple of them are identical, the
result JSON is not transformed correctly.

I'm doing this from a Groovy script.:

import net.sf.json.xml.XMLSerializer
import net.sf.json.JSON

def xml = """<body>
              <menulist>
                 <titles><foo>foo1</foo><foo>foo2</foo></titles>
                  <item>

<value><name>item1</name><action>doAction</action></value>
                  </item>
                  <item>

<value><name>item2</name><action>doAction</action></value>
                  </item>
             </menulist>
          </body>"""

XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer()
JSON json = serializer.read(xml)
return json.toString()

The JSON result:
[
    {
        "titles": [
            "foo1",
            "foo2"
        ],
        "item": [
            {
                "name": "item1",
                "action": "doAction"
            },
            [
                {
                    "name": "item2",
                    "action": "doAction"
                }
            ]
        ]
    }
]

If I remove the <titles> node the XML document is correctly parsed.

Does anyone else have the same problem? Or maybe have a nice workaround?
