Erroneous code example in docs
The following code on this page seems to be broken (I guess it was intended to contain a obj
function call):
// The json builder declares a JSON structure
val result = json {
"firstName" to "Dale",
"lastName" to "Cooper",
"age" to 64,
"names" to array("Dale", "Bartholomew")
}
On another note, the example
// The json builder declares a JSON structure
val result = json {
// in this structure the array function can be used
// takes a vararg of values
array("1", "2", "3")
// or an iterable of values
array((1..3).map { "$it" })
// apply function on array receiver
array {
for (i in 1..3) {
add("$i")
}
}
}
is slightly confusing to me, as it is not clear that only the last array{}
function will actually have an impact on the json builder. As a kotlin beginner, I expected the result of the json builder to be ["1","2","3","1","2","3","1","2","3"]
, instead of ["1","2","3"]
. Is this correct?
I think are example is indeed misleading it should be like this https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-lang-kotlin/blob/3.5/vertx-lang-kotlin/src/test/kotlin/io/vertx/lang/kotlin/test/JsonTest.kt#L82 for the last one
