Re: [json-lib-user] fromBean - field order

[Andres A. <aal...@ya...>]

Hi Lazlo,

You are correct, according to the spec: "An object is
an unordered set of name/value pairs."
Its possible to change the lib and let it keep record
of the insertion order, but it wont be using
LinkedHashMap, as that class was introduced in JDK
1.4.

Two solutions are available:
 a) use commons.collection's LinkedMap
 b) home grown Map that preservers order insertion

For option a) a new dependency must be introduced.
For option b) the DRY concept applies.

Once the storage is solved, we can turn on the order
of which PropertyDescriptors are obtained.
