Method Detail

toXml

String toXml(Object obj)

Converts an object to XML. If the object to convert is a IJsonObject, its elements of type "IJsonArray" will have a "isArray='true'" attribute added. This way, the XML can be deserialized back to a IJsonObject correctly.

toXml

String toXml(Object obj,
             boolean pretty)

Converts an object to XML.

Parameters:

pretty - If true, the generated XML will be formatted.

fromXml

IJsonObject fromXml(String xml)

Deserializes a XML to an IJsonObject. This will correctly manage the XML generated by toXml(), arrays included.

fromXmlToJsonArray

IJsonArray fromXmlToJsonArray(String xml)

Deserializes a XML to an IJsonArray. This will correctly manage the XML generated by toXml(), arrays included.

fromXml

<T> T fromXml(String xml,
              Class<T> clazz)

Deserializes a XML to the given Class. Be aware that if you use a default Type like Map<String, Object>, the arrays will probably won't be deserialized correctly. Use the version returning a IJsonObject to get the arrays to work out of the box!

fromXmlToType

<T> T fromXmlToType(String xml,
                    Type type)

Deserializes a XML to the given Type. Be aware that if you use a default Type like Map<String, Object>, the arrays will probably won't be deserialized correctly. Use the version returning a IJsonObject to get the arrays to work out of the box!

fromXmlInputStream

<T> T fromXmlInputStream(InputStream inputStream,
                         Class<T> clazz)

Deserializes a XML inputstream to the given Type. Be aware that if you use a default Type like Map<String, Object>, the arrays will probably won't be deserialized correctly. Use the version returning a IJsonObject to get the arrays to work out of the box!
