Method Detail

### toJSONArray

    public static JSONArray toJSONArray(java.lang.String string)
                                 throws JSONException

  Convert a well-formed (but not necessarily valid) XML string into a JSONArray using the JsonML transform. Each XML tag is represented as a JSONArray in which the first element is the tag name. If the tag has attributes, then the second element will be JSONObject containing the name/value pairs. If the tag contains children, then strings and JSONArrays will represent the child tags. Comments, prologs, DTDs, and `<[ [ ]]>` are ignored.

  Parameters:
    `string` - The source string.
  Returns:
    A JSONArray containing the structured data from the XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`

### toJSONArray

    public static JSONArray toJSONArray(XMLTokener x)
                                 throws JSONException

  Convert a well-formed (but not necessarily valid) XML string into a JSONArray using the JsonML transform. Each XML tag is represented as a JSONArray in which the first element is the tag name. If the tag has attributes, then the second element will be JSONObject containing the name/value pairs. If the tag contains children, then strings and JSONArrays will represent the child content and tags. Comments, prologs, DTDs, and `<[ [ ]]>` are ignored.

  Parameters:
    `x` - An XMLTokener.
  Returns:
    A JSONArray containing the structured data from the XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`

### toJSONObject

    public static JSONObject toJSONObject(XMLTokener x)
                                   throws JSONException

  Convert a well-formed (but not necessarily valid) XML string into a JSONObject using the JsonML transform. Each XML tag is represented as a JSONObject with a "tagName" property. If the tag has attributes, then the attributes will be in the JSONObject as properties. If the tag contains children, the object will have a "childNodes" property which will be an array of strings and JsonML JSONObjects. Comments, prologs, DTDs, and `<[ [ ]]>` are ignored.

  Parameters:
    `x` - An XMLTokener of the XML source text.
  Returns:
    A JSONObject containing the structured data from the XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`

### toJSONObject

    public static JSONObject toJSONObject(java.lang.String string)
                                   throws JSONException

  Convert a well-formed (but not necessarily valid) XML string into a JSONObject using the JsonML transform. Each XML tag is represented as a JSONObject with a "tagName" property. If the tag has attributes, then the attributes will be in the JSONObject as properties. If the tag contains children, the object will have a "childNodes" property which will be an array of strings and JsonML JSONObjects. Comments, prologs, DTDs, and `<[ [ ]]>` are ignored.

  Parameters:
    `string` - The XML source text.
  Returns:
    A JSONObject containing the structured data from the XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`

### toString

    public static java.lang.String toString(JSONArray ja)
                                     throws JSONException

  Reverse the JSONML transformation, making an XML text from a JSONArray.

  Parameters:
    `ja` - A JSONArray.
  Returns:
    An XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`

### toString

    public static java.lang.String toString(JSONObject jo)
                                     throws JSONException

  Reverse the JSONML transformation, making an XML text from a JSONObject. The JSONObject must contain a "tagName" property. If it has children, then it must have a "childNodes" property containing an array of objects. The other properties are attributes with string values.

  Parameters:
    `jo` - A JSONObject.
  Returns:
    An XML string.
  Throws:
    `JSONException`
