Re: [json-lib-user] Strings with square brackets being interpreted as arrays

[Pedro P. <ped...@we...>]

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I need to import the whole  
JSON file, and then append it to another JSONObject, so cherry-picking  
the bits I care about (like what your solution seems to imply) is not  
a possibility.

 From what I can gather, the problem is with the tokenizer evaluating  
values and then not distinguishing between quoted strings and unquoted  
arrays in the value string. Going to try and figure out whether that's  
solvable in a moderately simple way.

Regards,

Pedro Pinheiro
