Extension for core...

[Rob Dawson]

One of the guys on my project wrote this...

package ext;

import com.google.gson.Gson;
import play.templates.JavaExtensions;

public class JsonExtensions extends JavaExtensions {

public static String toJson(Object o) {
Gson gson = new Gson();
return gson.toJson(o);
}
}

seems like it would be something that it would make sense to go back into the main framework as an extension.

Could you explain the use case?
More specifically, how would you use this instead of using renderJSON()

This is to be used in templates : alert(${ myString.toJson() })

and yes it would be cool as a framework feature :-)

Yes probably. Please add this snippet to a bug report. We'll add it in
a future release.

For anything work-related, use g...@zenexity.fr; for everything else,
write guillau...@gmail.com

But the method doesn't take a String, it takes an Object... so I still don't get the use case. More specifically, why would you want to output json on an HTML page?
Sorry if I'm not seeing something obvious :)
