Nullable Types and Non Nullable Default Value Strategy

[ArcherEmiya05]

Looking at this settings, I get a little confuse about what will happen if the type is nullable base from the JSON itself but setting the default value strategy as non null? Is the type becomes nullable or non null

It became nullable Any? I am expecting nullable String

Sample

"links": [
                {
                    "url": null,
                    "label": "« Previous",
                    "active": false
                },
                {
                    "url": "http://localhost:8000/api/active-announcements?page=1",
                    "label": "1",
                    "active": true
                },
                {
                    "url": "http://localhost:8000/api/active-announcements?page=2",
                    "label": "2",
                    "active": false
                },
                {
                    "url": "http://localhost:8000/api/active-announcements?page=3",
                    "label": "3",
                    "active": false
                },
      ]

@JsonClass(generateAdapter = true)
data class Link(
    @Json(name = "active")
    val active: Boolean = false,
    @Json(name = "label")
    val label: String = "",
    @Json(name = "url")
    val url: Any? = Any()
)

The type will be nullable if the json value is null, and will be non-nullable if the json value never be null

For your case, it seems there are some bugs, will fix it next version.

Thank you for your feedback
