INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / C10 - IDS 12.10 | |
Problem description: | |
Per http://json.org/ a string value in a JSON document needs to escape double-quotes (its own delimiters), the escape character ('\') and a number of control characters. Obviously there's no such attempt by genbson() UDR when producing string output. | |
