Exceptions messages are a bit unclear
See original GitHub issueHi,
Take for example this invalid JSLT:
{
"id" : ,
}
This will produce this exception (using the demo playground):
com.schibsted.spt.data.jslt.JsltException: Parse error: Encountered " "," ", "" at line 2, column 10.
How do you read whatever is between Encountered and at line 2,...? It’s kind of confusing IMO.
Let me know what do you think, thank you for this great library!

You entered the JSON object in the
JSTLtext area in the playground.I, OTOH, entered the same JSON object in the
Inputtext area. That explains the different errors experienced.Reopening, because those error messages really could be better than they are.
