Usage

XML document handler

A XmlDocumentJsonHandler is a JsonHandler that creates a XML Document, that represents the described JSON document, using the following rules:

• A JSON array is represented as a tag with name array.
• A JSON object is represented as a tag with name object.
• A JSON object entry is represented as a tag with name entry.
• The name of a JSON object entry is represented as an attribute of the entry tag with name name.
• A JSON null is represented as a tag with name null.
• A JSON boolean is represented as a tag with name boolean.
• The value of the JSON boolean represented as an attribute of the boolean tag with name value.
• A JSON number is represented as a tag with name number.
• The value of the JSON boolean represented as an attribute of the number tag with name value.
• A JSON string is represented as a tag with name string.
• The value of the JSON boolean represented as an attribute of the string tag with name value.

// a JsonDocument
JsonDocument document = ...

// returns a xml document  
Document xmlDocument = document.handle(new XmlDocumentJsonHandler());

The returned XML Document for the example.json has the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<object>
   <entry name="null">
      <null />
   </entry>
   <entry name="boolean">
      <boolean value="true" />
   </entry>
   <entry name="longValue">
      <number value="-42" />
   </entry>
   <entry name="double">
      <number value="-23.42" />
   </entry>
   <entry name="array">
      <array>
         <string value="foo" />
         <string value="bar" />
      </array>
   </entry>
</object>
