| Hello,
I have an entity that uses both Joda LocalDate and LocalTime attributes. I’m using ERRest to serialise these EOs.
LocalDate works fine under all circumstances. LocalTime seems to be serialising to XML and plist correctly, but causes the JSON serialiser to lose its mind.
INFO net.sf.json.JSONObject - Property 'field' of class org.joda.time.LocalTime has no read method. SKIPPED INFO net.sf.json.JSONObject - Property 'fieldType' of class org.joda.time.LocalTime has no read method. SKIPPED INFO net.sf.json.JSONObject - Property 'millis' of class org.joda.time.field.PreciseDurationField has no read method. SKIPPED INFO net.sf.json.JSONObject - Property 'millis' of class org.joda.time.field.PreciseDurationField has no read method. SKIPPED INFO net.sf.json.JSONObject - Property 'millis' of class org.joda.time.field.PreciseDurationField has no read method. SKIPPED
And so on. The output looks like this:
"endTime":{"chronology":{"zone":{"ID":"UTC","fixed":true}},"fieldTypes":[{"durationType":{"name":"hours"},"name":"hourOfDay","rangeDurationType":{"name":"days"}},{"durationType":{"name":"minutes"},"name":"minuteOfHour","rangeDurationType":{"name":"hours"}},{"durationType”: ...
Naturally, JSON is the output format I actually want.
What are my options here? I find it hard to believe that NSPropertyListSerialization knows how to handle Joda LocalTime specifically, so why is it getting the output right and the JSON serialiser isn’t? Is there an easy way to add custom types to ERRest? It looks like LocalDate formatting is handled in ERXRestUtils. Is that the only way to handle formatting a LocalTime?
(I probably won’t need two-way handling of these LocalTimes, so I could actually add a cover method on the EO to format the value as a String. But it would be nice if I could do this the Right Way.)
