Use this guide to master the XML metalanguage and JSON data format along
with significant Java APIs for parsing and creating XML and JSON
documents from the Java language. New in this edition is coverage of
Jackson (a JSON processor for Java) and Oracle's own Java API for JSON
processing (JSON-P), which is a JSON processing API for Java EE that
also can be used with Java SE. This new edition of Java XML and
JSON also expands coverage of DOM and XSLT to include additional API
content and useful examples.
All examples in this book have been tested under Java 11. In some cases,
source code has been simplified to use Java 11's var language feature.
The first six chapters focus on XML along with the SAX, DOM, StAX,
XPath, and XSLT APIs. The remaining six chapters focus on JSON along
with the mJson, GSON, JsonPath, Jackson, and JSON-P APIs. Each chapter
ends with select exercises designed to challenge your grasp of the
chapter's content. An appendix provides the answers to these exercises.
