Empty StringBuilder causes No state found: INIT EOF

Hi guys

I was doing unit test on my application and I discovered that sending a empty StringBuilder causes a crash. I think that you be good to detect it before start the parsing and then, return a empty JsonObject or JsonArray.

Almost every parser of JSON will throw unexpected end of input. A JSON parser will look for a valid start token, such as STRING, TRUE, FALSE, OPEN_BRACE, OPEN_BRACKET or QUOTE. But, in that case, after trying all these, the found token was EOF, therefore it was unexpected.

It’s default behavior, as you can see on Chrome default JavaScript implementation.

The behavior is correct, @ppamorim. According to any JSON RFC specification, the first entry must be a JSON-valid expression. Empty string is a syntax error. No matches for ", {, [, \d, true, false or any other valid start token.
