JsonWriter

public JsonWriter(java.io.Writer writer,
                  int mode)

Create a JsonWriter where the writer mode can be chosen.

Parameters:

writer - the Writer where the JSON is written to

mode - the JsonWriter mode

Since:

1.3.1

JsonWriter

public JsonWriter(java.io.Writer writer,
                  JsonWriter.Format format)

Create a JsonWriter where the format is provided.

Parameters:

writer - the Writer where the JSON is written to

format - the JSON format definition

                  JsonWriter.Format format)

Create a JsonWriter where the writer mode can be chosen and the format definition is provided.

Following constants can be used as bit mask for the mode:

• AbstractJsonWriter.DROP_ROOT_MODE: drop the root node
• AbstractJsonWriter.STRICT_MODE: do not throw ConversionException, if writer should generate invalid JSON
• AbstractJsonWriter.EXPLICIT_MODE: ensure that all available data is explicitly written even if addition objects must be added

Parameters:

writer - the Writer where the JSON is written to

mode - the JsonWriter mode

format - the JSON format definition

Since:

mode - the JsonWriter mode

format - the JSON format definition

bufferSize - the buffer size of the internally used QuickWriter

Method Detail

flush

public void flush()

Description copied from interface: HierarchicalStreamWriter

Flush the writer, if necessary.

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: HierarchicalStreamWriter

Close the writer, if necessary.

underlyingWriter

public HierarchicalStreamWriter underlyingWriter()

Description copied from class: AbstractWriter

Return the underlying HierarchicalStreamWriter implementation.

If a Converter needs to access methods of a specific HierarchicalStreamWriter implementation that are not defined in the HierarchicalStreamWriter interface, it should call this method before casting. This is because the writer passed to the Converter is often wrapped/decorated by another implementation to provide additional functionality (such as XPath tracking).

For example:

MySpecificWriter mySpecificWriter = (MySpecificWriter)writer; // INCORRECT!
 mySpecificWriter.doSomethingSpecific();

MySpecificWriter mySpecificWriter = (MySpecificWriter)writer.underlyingWriter();  // CORRECT!
 mySpecificWriter.doSomethingSpecific();

Implementations of HierarchicalStreamWriter should return 'this', unless they are a decorator, in which case they should delegate to whatever they are wrapping.

Specified by:

underlyingWriter in interface HierarchicalStreamWriter

Overrides:

underlyingWriter in class AbstractWriter

startObject

protected void startObject()

Start a JSON object.

Specified by:

protected void addValue(java.lang.String value,
                        AbstractJsonWriter.Type type)

Specified by:

addValue in class AbstractJsonWriter

Parameters:

value - the value itself

type - the JSON type

startArray

protected void startArray()

Start a JSON array.

Specified by:

startArray in class AbstractJsonWriter

nextElement
