mORMot Open Source

Hi,

Sorry I forgot to tell you about the environment. It's Delphi XE6  Windows 7 x64. I don't know where to find the revision #, but I downloaded the sources on August 8 (2 months ago).

I think everybody would expect mORMot to work out of the box for System types (GUID is one of them), without wasting creating custom parser for everything. It kills the purpose of using the mORMot in the first place.

The problem is not even in the JSON parser, but how the Interface-based function is invoked, i.e. its parameters are instantiated from JSON string. You can easily reproduce this problem even in your examples:

1. Open projects Project14Client.dpr  and  Project14ServerHttpWeak.dpr from your Samples folder

2. Change the interface of the ICalendar in the Project14Interface.pas file by adding a GUID parameter in the beginning of the parameter list:

  ICalculator = interface(IInvokable)
    ['{9A60C8ED-CEB2-4E09-87D4-4A16F496E5FE}']
    function Add(const AGUID: TGUID; n1,n2: integer): integer;
  end;

3. Change the ICalculator implementation in the Project14ServerHttpWeak:

type
  TServiceCalculator = class(TInterfacedObject, ICalculator)
  public
    function Add(const AGUID: TGUID; n1,n2: integer): integer;
  end;

function TServiceCalculator.Add(const AGUID: TGUID; n1, n2: integer): integer;
begin
  result := n1+n2;
end;

4. Run these samples. You will get the error message:

(sicShared) execution failed (probably due to bad input parameters) for Calculator.Add

Please take a look yourself and issue a fix to that.

Thanks!
