Class JsonObject

org.json.simple.JsonObject
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, Map<String,Object>, Jsonable
public class JsonObject extends HashMap<String,Object> implements Jsonable
JsonObject is a common non-thread safe data format for string to data mappings. The contents of a JsonObject are only validated as JSON values on serialization. Meaning all values added to a JsonObject must be recognized by the Jsoner for it to be a true 'JsonObject', so it is really a JsonableHashMap that will serialize to a JsonObject if all of its contents are valid JSON.
Since:
2.0.0
