VPackParser fails on valid json

[kpiszczek]

When trying to parse json containing array with multiple objects with null values parser fails with exception.

String json = "{\"values\": [ {\"a\": null}, {\"b\": null}]}";
VPackParser parser = new VPackParser.Builder().build();
parser.fromJson(json);

Results in:

Unexpected exception at position -1: null

I'm using java-velocypack version 1.0.9

@kpiszczek thanks for reporting.

I already fixed it and deployed a new snapshot (1.0.10-SNAPSHOT).

Note: fromJson(json) will not include any null values. If you want them included in your vpack you have to use fromJson(json, true)

released version 1.0.10 today. It will be included in arangodb-java-driver version 4.2.2 which I will release today too.
