Switch to a Jackson for Json
re-thc opened this issue · 4 comments
Hi, can the json implementation be switched to Jackson? Jackson is standardized and used across the board in most projects. json-simple creates an extra dependency for us. Also as it's more heavily tested any issues, such as security are better looked after.
As an added bonus Jackon is faster. If size is an issue please look at jackson-jr.
Thanks!
Hi @hc-codersatlas,
I started this project long time ago (see here). But, at the moment, I do not have the time to get it done. And - as far as I remember - I was kind of stuck because jackson-databind requires Java 7 and we wanted to stick to 6 with our driver. I try to discuss this topic internally since months with no progress so far. I will gladly keep you informed.

Thanks for the response. Hopefully we can move to Jackson. Looking forward to adopt Arangodb for our use case.
@hc-codersatlas I replaced json-simple with jackson right now. The change will be included in the upcoming driver release next week.
Great, thanks.
