|
|---|
| 42 | * Provides an object model API to process <a href="http://json.org/">JSON</a>.
|
|---|
| 43 | *
|
|---|
| 44 | * <p>The object model API is a high-level API that provides immutable object
|
|---|
| 45 | * models for JSON object and array structures. These JSON structures are
|
|---|
| 46 | * represented as object models using the Java types {@link javax.json.JsonObject}
|
|---|
| 47 | * and {@link javax.json.JsonArray}. The interface {@code javax.json.JsonObject} provides
|
|---|
| 48 | * a {@link java.util.Map} view to access the unordered collection of zero or
|
|---|
| 49 | * more name/value pairs from the model. Similarly, the interface
|
|---|
| 50 | * {@code JsonArray} provides a {@link java.util.List} view to access the
|
|---|
| 51 | * ordered sequence of zero or more values from the model.
|
|---|
| 52 | *
|
|---|
| 53 | * <p>The object model API uses builder patterns to create and modify
|
|---|
| 54 | * these object models. The classes {@link javax.json.JsonObjectBuilder} and
|
|---|
| 55 | * {@link javax.json.JsonArrayBuilder} provide methods to create and modify models
|
|---|
| 56 | * of type {@code JsonObject} and {@code JsonArray} respectively.
|
|---|
| 57 | *
|
|---|
| 58 | * <p>These object models can also be created from an input source using
|
|---|
| 59 | * the class {@link javax.json.JsonReader}. Similarly, these object models
|
|---|
| 60 | * can be written to an output source using the class {@link javax.json.JsonWriter}.
|
|---|
| 61 | * <p>
|
|---|
| 62 | * This package includes several classes that implement other JSON related
|
|---|
| 63 | * standards: <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901">JSON Pointer</a>,
|
|---|
| 64 | * <a Href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902">JSON Patch</a>, and
|
|---|
| 65 | * <a Href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396">JSON Merge Patch</a>.
|
|---|
| 66 | * They can be used to retrieve, transform or manipulate values in an
|
|---|
| 67 | * object model.
