The sandbox now contains an updated version of the "json.testGroup" file which includes the test cases for the new functionality. In order to run it, you would need to replace the existing "json.testGroup" in "oorexx\test\trunk\ooRexx\extensions\json".
This concludes the present work on "json.cls". If there are no objections raised in the next two weeks I would like to replace the current version of both, "json.cls" and "json.testGroup" with the sandbox version. ---rony On 06.06.2021 18:19, Rony G.
