JSONObject should render useing single quotes so that double quotes don't have
to be escaped
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TAPESTRY-2211
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2211
Project: Tapestry
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.0.10
Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
Priority: Minor
When JSON output is sent to the client, it escapes each double quote with a
backslash character.
Most of the Tapestry code and typical markup uses double quotes, so there's a
lot of characters to escape, which not only increases the size of the output,
but makes it less readable.
Example:
{"script":"Tapestry.initializeZones([],
[[\"form:11866b5b0ae\",\"output\"],[\"clear:11866b5b0ae\",\"output
\"]]);Tapestry.registerValidation({\"password:11866b5b0ae\":[[\"required\",\"You
must provide a value
for Password.\"],[\"minlength\",\"You must provide at least 6 characters for
Password.\",6]],\"birthYear
:11866b5b0ae\":[[\"required\",\"You must provide a value for Birth
Year.\"],[\"min\",\"Birth Year requires
a value of at least 1900. \",1900],[\"max\",\"Birth Year requires a value no
larger than 2007.\",2007
]],\"firstName:11866b5b0ae\":[[\"required\",\"You must provide a value for
First Name.\"],[\"minlength
\",\"You must provide at least 3 characters for First
Name.\",3]],\"lastName:11866b5b0ae\":[[\"required
Using single quotes around JSON Object keys and values would make this a lot
more readable, as only the occasional single quote would need to be backslash
escaped.
Hm. The official JSON spec (http://www.json.org/) seems to indicate that
strings must be quoted with double quotes.
