Hello, Let me clarify the issue I have. I would like to be able to customize the way the JSON plugin formats the date when converting an objecto to json. Specifically, when I'm returning a JSONResult to a client. In order to do that I need to modify the DateFormatter used by JSONWriter so I can change its timezone. I took a look at the code, and it seems that make that modification is going to be hard. It would be something like this:
Extend JSONWriter to be able to use timezone with a Date(Maybe receiving the timezone as a parameter, or using annotation at the field level) Extend JSONUtil to call my custom JSONWriter. Extend JSONResult to call my customer JSONUtil, by overriding the method createJSONString. This would pretty much imply copy the whole code, as the method has a bunch of dependences from private variables when calling JSONUtil. Can anyone suggest a better approach?
