Different order of JSON items causes different results

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    • Unexpected results
    • `ST_GEOMFROMGEOJSON` when passed a JSON object that specified its "type" after all of the other GeoJSON objects that define it would previously return NULL rather than the object, thanks to Akshat Nehra of AWS for providing a solution to this

    Description

      Hi,

      In JSON, the order of items should has no influence on the results; however, the following test case shows a counterexample:

      SELECT ST_ASTEXT(ST_GEOMFROMGEOJSON('{"type":"GeometryCollection","geometries":[]}')); -- GEOMETRYCOLLECTION EMPTY
      		 
      SELECT ST_ASTEXT(ST_GEOMFROMGEOJSON('{"geometries":[],"type":"GeometryCollection"}')); -- NULL
      		 
      SHOW WARNINGS; -- Warning	4038	Syntax error in JSON text in argument 1 to function 'st_geomfromgeojson' at position 18
