> There is an issue in the generation of JSON from the TSimpleJSONProtocol, where if there are quotes inside of a string, then those quotes will not be serialized correctly. These quotes need one more layer of escaping to produce valid JSON.
>  
> For instance, if you have the Thrift structure defined by:
>  
> {code:java}
> struct MyThriftStruct {
>     1: required string my_string
> }
> {code}
>  
> And, I then define an object of that type in Java:
> {code:java}
> MyThriftStruct t = new MyThriftStruct();
> t.my_string = "I said: \"this is a fairly nice string.\""{code}
>  
> And, if I then serialize this using the TSimpleJsonProtocol in this manner:
> {code:java}
> TSerializer thriftJsonSer = new TSerializer(new TNotSoSimpleJSONProtocol.Factory());
> String myThriftStructJsonString = return thriftJsonSer.toString(t);
> {code}
>  
> This will result in JSON that cannot be deserialized because the quotes inside of the string were not escaped properly.
