json: cannot unmarshal string into Go value of type int

Hello,

is it out of date? Am I missing something?

--- FAIL: Test (4.55s)

I don't see this error, how did you run tests? Because I have executed tests and don't have any errors

I used my own test to call the run() function.

I checked the raw result of PayPals API.
Quantity is somehow a string.
I managed to make it work, I had to change this:

        Item struct {
-               Quantity    int    `json:"quantity"`
+               Quantity    string `json:"quantity"`

I cant tell you, why its returning a string for me.

This Item was not created by myself, its something I bought some time ago:

"item_list":{  
    "items":[  
    {  
        "name":"...",
        "price":"22.99",
        "currency":"GBP",
        "quantity":"1"
    }
],

However, I cant use PayPals API. I thought I could load ALL payments, which is not the case (Thanks PayPal...). Looks like I have to use NVP/SOAP.

I fixed it, so now this value is decoded correctly.
