Re: [json-lib-user] Order of child elements is switched when converting from json to xml

[Olivier C. <oli...@gm...>]

Funny :-) Thanks for sharing the feedback.

That proves how useful this line is! I don't really like that solution
though...

In the meantime, I implemented a solution with more lines of code but that
seems to get all I need:
- a xml2json.xsl stylesheet for XML => JSON (advantage: can use
"BadgerFish" convention)
- jettison for JSON => XML (but quite complicated to implement)

So, in a word I did without JSON-lib but what a shame!
