Remo Liechti commented on SLING-12269:
--------------------------------------
not so sure, if somebody was actually having an inputfield on a UI where the
user could enter some numbers, and was checking for NumberFormatException in
order to present a proper error message to the user, this could be broken.
> Changed behaviour in commons json when used as a dependency

> Key: SLING-12269
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-12269
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Commons
> Reporter: Remo Liechti
> Priority: Blocker
>
> With the new internal release 2.0.22, there seems to be a different behaviour
> when it comes to get values from JSONObject.
> The new version checks for types and throws an exception, as of the old
> version simply called toString() on any object found.
> *Old:*
> {{public String getString(String key) throws JSONException {}}
> {{ return get(key).toString();}}
> {{}}}
> *New:*
> {{public String getString(String key) throws JSONException {}}
> {{ Objectobject=this.get(key);}}
> {{ if (objectinstanceofString) {}}
> {{ return (String) object;}}
> }
> {{ throwwrongValueFormatException(key, "string", object, null);}}
> {{}}}
>
> Same is true for all other types, such as getInt, getLong etc.
> There might be more such small differences in behaviour.
