Posting Arrays of JSON to Server using Rhomobile AsyncHttp

Problem:
When using Rhomobile, posting data using AsyncHttp method to server, Rhomobile converts all the data to string while sending them. At times this creates issue during parsing of the data on server side, for which additional code is required to parse the string to object on server side.
data = { :searchQuery => "some text" , :param => true }
         result = Rho::AsyncHttp.post(
                      :url => "https://www.example.com",
                      :body => data
                  )
Solution:
Need to specify the content type while sending the data and parse the data through the JSON.parse method as shown below.
data = { :searchQuery => "some text" , :param => true }
        result = Rho::AsyncHttp.post(
        :url => "https://www.example.com",
        :headers => { "Content-Type" => "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                                   "Accept" => "application/json" },
        :body => Rho::JSON.parse(data)
                 )
