Int64 in JSON

[Pablo Martin]

Hi!

I need to work with Int64 numbers in Json and it should be sent to the server, but a problem occurs. When I use Json.stringify it is converted to the {"hi":0,"lo":0} object. So it isn't valid to communicate with the server.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

JSON supports only a few basic types and Int64 (or Date) are not part of it. You need to find a way to deal with those types manually by using another representation. You could simply stringify the Int64 value and parse it on the server side.

The JSON standard does not specify any bounds on numbers, the syntax specification does neither, so in fact even BigInts can be dumped into JSON. One should make sure though that the target system does understand those numbers as well.

Ok, thanks for the suggestions. I thought I would need something like that.
