Scratch pad for changes destined for the 5.7 release notes page.
This was done to avoid split packages (i.e. packages which appear in more than one JAR) in Apache Tapestry and making it easier to be used in projects using Java 9 modules (JPMS).
To improve intercompatiblity with java.util.Map
/ java.util.Collection
, the type JSONObject
now implements Map<String, Object>
, and JSONArray
implements Collection<Object>
.
Existing JSONObject
code might break due to slightly different method signatures:
JSONObject get(String name) => JSONObject get(Object name)
JSONObject putAll(Map<String, ?> newProperties) => void putAll(Map<? extends String, ? extends Object> newProperties)
Additionally to the new implemented interfaces, the types itself throw more descriptive RuntimeException
descendants, with as much as contextual information as possible. They can be found in the package org.apache.tapestry5.json.exceptions
.
JSONArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
JSONInvalidTypeException
JSONSyntaxException
JSONTypeMismatchException
JSONValueNotFoundException
The class JSONCollectors
provides access to java.util.streams.Collector
for JSONArray
and JSONObject
.
