Class Json2XmlConverter

java.lang.Object

net.sf.practicalxml.converter.json.Json2XmlConverter

public class Json2XmlConverter
extends Object

This class contains a hand-written recursive-descent parser for JSON strings. Instances are constructed around a source string, and used only once (thus thread-safety is not an issue).

See json.org for the JSON grammar. This implementation will also accept strings that do not quote their field names.

The current implementation creates a child element for each element of an array, producing output similar to that from the Bean->XML conversion.
