>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.7
>            Reporter: Graeme Rocher
>
> In order to compose logic with StreamingJsonBuilder it is often desirable to 
> split up the code into parts to make it more maintainable. For example with 
> Grails' JSON views you may have several different templates that make up the 
> entire JSON response.
> In order to support this we had to fork StreamingJsonBuilder and add the 
> capability to pass a Writable as a value. The reason is, otherwise you have 
> to buffer in memory an entire string for child template. For example now you 
> would have to do something like this:
> {code}
>         new StringWriter().with { w ->
>             def builder = new StreamingJsonBuilder(w)
>             def sw = new StringWriter() 
>            new StreamingJsonBuilder(sw).call {
>                         sectionId "world"
>             }
>             builder.response {
>                 status "ok"
>                 results sw.toString()
>             }
>       }
> {code}
> Which is inefficient and eliminates the memory benefits of streaming. Ideally 
> you want to do this:
> {code}
>         new StringWriter().with { w ->
>             def builder = new StreamingJsonBuilder(w)
>             def writable = new Writable() {
>                 @Override
>                 Writer writeTo(Writer writer) throws IOException {
>                     new StreamingJsonBuilder(writer).call {
>                         sectionId "world"
>                     }
>                     return writer
>                 }
>             }
>             builder.response {
>                 status "ok"
>                 results writable
>             }
>         }
> {code}
> Which allows you to continue streaming for child attributes of a JSON 
> document. 
> I have a pull request incoming for this improvement
