Original Question
I found this wiki on Liferay website --> https://web.liferay.com/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/JSON+Serialization
it says that I can serialize objects to JSON by just using the code below
JSONFactoryUtil.looseSerialize(object);
It does the job, but the date fields on my object is not formatted in such I way that I wanted. It looks like the one below
{
"companyId": 20154,
"createDate": 1470512924000,
"endDateTime": 1531008000000,
"groupId": 20181,
"modifiedDate": 1470512924000,
"startDateTime": 1518048000000,
"status": 0,
"statusByUserId": 23703,
"statusByUserName": "Regular User",
"statusDate": 1470513234000,
"userId": 23703,
"userName": "Regular User",
"uuid": "cbf1779a-411c-4c03-b7c5-bfefb364b4b1"
}
How can I format it? it says also on the wiki that "Loose Serialization" is based on the flexjson library.
So I checked flexjson library and found out that they have default DateTransformer that I need to use, but the eclipse intellisense did not recognize the said transfomer.
Here is my reference with DateTransformer of Flexjson --> http://flexjson.sourceforge.net/
it says there that I can format it by using the code below:
JSONSerializer serializer = new JSONSerializer()
.transform(new BasicDateTransformer(), Date.class)
.transform(new DateTransformer("MM/dd/yyyy"), "person.birthday");
Question is how can I do that in Liferay SDK? I'm using the Ant style build type.
Added
I got this error:
flexjson.JSONException: [ expandoBridge.table.expandoBridge ]: Error while trying to deepSerialize.
