Enums are serialized differently with 4.15.0

Phase.ACTIVE would serialize to

  • before 4.15.0: "phase":{"name":"ACTIVE"}
  • with 4.15.0: "phase":"ACTIVE"

Can we have please at least mentioned this in changelog or/and some guidance on how to preserve old behaviour?

commented

The changelog.md file has been updated to include the comment below for 4.15.0.

This version writes Enums in a more compact way with the field name associated to a JSON String name of the enum. However, the prior versions of json-io wrote Enums out as JSON objects. The JSON reader will read Enums either way. If you want the output to continue to write Enums as a JSON Object, use the .writeEnumsAsOptions() on the WriteOptionsBuilder, and it will output enums as it used to.

@jdereg Awesome, thank you!

Small correction though - there's no .writeEnumsAsOptions() method in WriteOptionsBuilder, but .writeEnumsAsObjects.

Thank you for catching this. Corrected.
