Jackson-json precision doubles coding

Question

I code a complex map structure with arrays of double values. High precision is not important and the size of the output, so I'm trying to get a JSON tool (in this case Jackson) to serialize double values ​​using the provided DecimalFormat.

The following is my best shot, but this fails because the serializer is not selected by the object builder to encode the array:

class MyTest
{
  public class MyDoubleSerializer extends JsonSerializer<double[]>
  {
    public void serialize(double[] value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider) throws IOException, JsonProcessingException
    {
      for (double d : value)
      {
        jgen.writeStartArray();
        jgen.writeRaw( df.format( d ) );
        jgen.writeEndArray();
      }
    }
  }

  @Test
  public void test1() throws Exception
  {
    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    SimpleModule module = new SimpleModule("MyModule", new Version(0, 1, 0, "alpha"));
    module.addSerializer(double[].class, new MyDoubleSerializer());
    mapper.registerModule(module);

    Map<String, Object> data = new HashMap<String, Object>();
    double[] doubleList = { 1.1111111111D, (double) (System.currentTimeMillis()) };
    data.put( "test", doubleList );
    System.out.print( mapper.writeValueAsString( data ));
  }
}

Conclusion:

{"test": [1.1111111111,1.315143204964E12}

What I was looking for:

{"test": [1.32E12, 1.11E0]}

Any ideas?

Also, I don't like when you need to create a String, and write - as raw - is there a way I could pass a StringBuffer to a DecimalFormat for this?

thank

Double.

, writeRaw() , Json writer writeValue() .

            String x = df.format( value );
