Binary can have any characters, even JSON symbols. For example: "value:" : "look a quote",\n"bogus" : { 10, "foo" }" The above will make a mash of any JSON structure. Better to encode binary data as Base 64, which is designed to fit within a text format. Note, however, that the casting is unfortunate. The caller knows the type. Better to have: byte[] getBytes(String value) ... byte[] getBytes(byte[] value) ... byte[] getBytes(Binary value) ... {code} Seems we'd also need a to/from Base64 method so that, on read, we do: * Get string value. * Pass string value to Base64 decoder, get bytes * Pass bytes to vector, using vector's code to understand byte meaning On encoding: * Get the vector value as a byte array * Base64 encode the array * Write it to JSON as a string All that said, Strings need not be Base64 encoded if we have a JSON encoder that will escape JSON special characters. This works as long as the JSON file itself is UTF-8 encoded because then each Unicode string has a UTF-8 equivalent.
