[jira] [Commented] (WW-4176) Struts2 JSON Plugin: Send Map with Strings as Key to JSON Action is ignored, Numeric Keys will work and mapped

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4176?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16133144#comment-16133144 ] 

Yasser Zamani commented on WW-4176:
-----------------------------------

[~lukaszlenart] my four years ago understanding was very wrong :)

By my today several hours work, I think you can close this issue as not a problem!

[~sabendroth]'s codes not work because it is not a duty for $.getJSON to set {{Content-Type}} to {{application/json}}, so, Struts JSON Plugin just ignores it for any further processing ([reference|https://struts.apache.org/docs/json-plugin.html])!

My following modified configuration works for me:

JSP PAGE:
{code:xml}
<%@taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.min.js"></script>
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<html>
<head>
    <title>WW-4176</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="" id="testForm1">
    <input type="hidden"  name="${_csrf.parameterName}"   value="${_csrf.token}"/>
    testForm1<input type="submit"/>
</form>
<script>
    $("#testForm1").submit(function(event){
        event.preventDefault(); //Cancel the default action (navigation) of the click.
        var token = $("input[name='_csrf']").val();
        var data={"1":"1","2":"ANOTHERVALUE","ANOTHERKEY":"1","KEY":"VALUE"};
        var sentData={"myJSONMap":data};
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "<s:url namespace="/" action="testMap"/>",
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "json",
            data: JSON.stringify(sentData),
            headers: {
                'X-CSRF-TOKEN':token
            },
            success: function(json) {
                alert("Client generated JSON"+JSON.stringify(json));
            },
            error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
                alert(xhr.responseText);
            }
        });
    });
</script>
</body>
</html>
{code}

JSON Action config:
{code:xml}
<package name="default" namespace="/" extends="struts-default,json-default">
		<action name="testMap" method="testMap" class="me.zamani.yasser.ww_convention.actions.JSON_DropDownPropertyValuesAction">
			<interceptor-ref name="json"></interceptor-ref>
            <result name="success" type="json">
			<param name="noCache">true</param>
            </result>
		</action>
</package>
{code}

> Sending Map from javascript/jsp to JSON Action, when the Keys are numeric everything works, when the keys are Strings then these entries are thrown away while the mapping process in the JSON Action takes place.
> Important note: If i create a map in the JSON Action and send it to the client everything is ok.
> alert which shows the Server generated JSON:
> {noformat}
> ServerJSON{"1":"1","2":"ANOTHERVALUE","ANOTHERKEY":"1","KEY":"VALUE"}
> {noformat}
> If i look into the sended data from javascript side in Eclipse i see in debug mode:
> {noformat}
> this=>myJSONMap:{2=[Ljava.lang.String;@3caf7a1f, 23=[Ljava.lang.String;@247aa859}
> {noformat}
> Alert shows on client side:
> {noformat}
> ClientJSON{"2":["ANOTHERVALUE"],"23":["1"]}
> {noformat}
> Hope it's clear where the problem is. Bug or misunderstood anything?
> Would like to have a List of keys,values where the keys can be String/Long/Int and the values can be String/Long/int.
> The direction Server generated Map=>JSON is ok, sending the same from client side will lose the entries with a String key.
> Further i tried also to specify my Map like
> {code:java}
> private Map<String, String> propertyValueMap = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>(); 
> {code}
> and set the getters/setters but don't work either.
> Here is a part of my code:
> JSP PAGE:
> {code:html}
> <form action="" id="testForm1">
> testForm1<input type="submit"/>
> </form>
> <script>
> $("#testForm1").submit(function(event){
> event.preventDefault(); //Cancel the default action (navigation) of the click.
> var data={"1":"1","2":"ANOTHERVALUE","ANOTHERKEY":"1","KEY":"VALUE"};
> var sentData={};
> sentData["myJSONMap"]=data;
> $.getJSON("<s:url namespace="/ajax" action="testMap"/>", sentData ,function(data3) {
> alert("Server generated JSON"+JSON.stringify(data3.mymap));
> alert("Client generated JSON"+JSON.stringify(data3.myJSONMap));
> });
> });
> {code}
