Gson v2.2.2 Release Notes

  • 2012-07-02

    • Gson now allows a user to override default type adapters for Primitives and Strings. This behavior was allowed in earlier versions of Gson but was prohibited started Gson 2.0. We decided to allow it again: This enables a user to parse 1/0 as boolean values for compatibility with iOS JSON libraries.
    • (Incompatible behavior change in JsonParser): In the past, if JsonParser encountered a stream that terminated prematurely, it returned JsonNull. This behavior wasn't correct because the stream had invalid JSON, not a null. JsonParser is now changed to throw JsonSyntaxException in this case. Note that if JsonParser (or Gson) encounter an empty stream, they still return JsonNull.
