> I found this issue when using server-side processing with JQuery Datatables and attempting to populate.  
> Say I have this getter/field on my action:
> {code:java}
> public List<List<String>> getListOfLists() {
> 	return listOfLists;
> }
> {code}
> My struts.xml is defined as follows:
> {code:xml}
> <action name="GetData" method="loadData"
> class="com.example.web.action.WebAction">
> 	<result type="json" >
> 		<param name="ignoreHierarchy">false</param>
> 		<param name="includeProperties">listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]</param>
> 	</result>
> </action>
> {code}
> However, the include patterns that are constructed within JSONUtil are not accurate.  Instead of making the expected pattern that would work:
> {noformat}
> listOfLists
> listOfLists\[\d+\]
> listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]
> {noformat}
> Only the following are created:
> {noformat}
> listOfLists\[\d+\]
> listOfLists\[\d+\]\[\d+\]
> {noformat}
> Because the first "listOfLists" is not created, the property is excluded in the results.
> This all happens because of line 463 in JSONUtil:
> {code:java}
> addPattern(results, patternExpr.substring(0, patternExpr.lastIndexOf(includePatternData.get(ARRAY_BEGIN_STRING).get(type))), type);
> {code}
> Since we're going at the last index of the ARRAY_BEGIN_STRING string, it's skipping the first index.  This could be updated to be smarter to build the include patterns as expected.
