Hello,

I've run into a bug with putting JSONObjects inside of JSONObjects.
Here's some sample code.

public void onModuleLoad()
{
JSONObject j1 = new JSONObject();
j1.put("test1", new JSONString(""));

JSONObject j2 = new JSONObject();
j2.put("test1", new JSONString(""));

JSONObject j3 = new JSONObject();
j3.put("j1", j1);
j3.put("j2", j2);

Window.alert(j3.toString());

The expected output is:
{"j1":{"test1":""}, "j2":{"test1":""}}

But instead it returns:
{"test1":{"test1":""}, "test1":{"test1":""}}

Thanks. Is there a workaround until the next patch is released?

That is a bug -- thanks for finding it. You can work around it by
calling the alternative toString() routine below. Just put this static
function in a class (e.g. JSONPatch), and replace
xxxx.yyyy.zzzz.JSONPatch with the package name you've chosen.

The bug has already been fixed and will be included in the next GWT
release.

       Thanks again,

                 Henry
