Android Question Unexpected behaviour by JSON Parser

[FrankBerra]

Hi everyone!
I am trying to work with HEX and JSON parser. After a lot of troubles i faced a strange thing.
In the following code the User.Get("Surname") returns me the value "4.0" instead of the expected "4d".
("4d" should be the hex rappresentation of the letter "M")

Where i am wrong?

I attach here the working example.

Dim Users As String = "[{Name=4d, Surname=4d},{Name=4d, Surname=4d}]"
               
    Dim ListaOfUsers As List
    ListaOfUsers.Initialize
               
    Dim ParserProfili As JSONParser
    ParserProfili.Initialize(Users)
    ListaOfUsers = ParserProfili.NextArray
   
    For Each User As Map In ListaOfUSers
        Log("Name: " & User.Get("Name"))
        Log("Surname: " & User.Get("Surname"))
    Next

"4d" is a valid Double so User.Get("Name") is converting it to a Double (4) and then to a String ("4.0") and then Logging it. You need to use Byte Converter to treat it as a hex String and convert it to a String, like so:

Dim bc As ByteConverter
Log("Name: " & bc.StringFromBytes(bc.HexToBytes("Name: " & User.Get("Name")),"UTF8"))

Thanks, but the problem is still there because User.Get("Name") retrieve the wrong string and so converting it with byteconverter it says:
java.lang.Exception: hex string has odd number of characters

The names and values must be enclosed by double quotes (QUOTE) to be interpreted as strings.
Your string construction doesn't permit this. In your sample code, I use stringbuilder to acomplish this.
See your modified project attached.
