Hello
I have recently used NeoJSON for the first time. All went pretty well, but I would like to make a small tweak to the output, which probably involves defining a mapping. I have read through the information in the NeoJSON pdf, and also looked at the class comments, but I am a bit lost. Could Sven or anyone please give me a hint? What I want is to construct a JSON object as a Pharo dictionary, but then control the order in which the fields are output to the JSON file. Clearly the order is irrelevant for a computer, but it could be helpful to a human reader to put them in an order which reflects the way humans think about the objects. The keys of a dictionary are of course unordered, so this is not possible, but if we step back a bit we see that a dictionary is often constructed from a collection of associations; if we could stop at this stage, and have a mapping which outputs the associations in the order in which they appear in the collection, this would give the control I am looking for. Am I talking nonsense, or is there any way of implementing this using NeoJSON mappings? Best wishes Peter Kenny
