Package javax.json

Interface JsonBuilderFactory

  • public interface JsonBuilderFactory
    Factory to create JsonObjectBuilder and JsonArrayBuilder instances. If a factory instance is configured with some configuration, that would be used to configure the created builder instances.

    This is a near-exact copy of the same-titled Java EE 8 Class: javax.json.JsonBuilderFactory
    Commenting has been slightly modified to accompany HiLiting the Code Examples.

    JsonObjectBuilder and JsonArrayBuilder can also be created using Json's methods. If multiple builder instances are created, then creating them using a builder factory is preferred.

    Example:
     JsonBuilderFactory factory = Json.createBuilderFactory(...);
 
 JsonArray value = factory
      .createArrayBuilder()
      .add(factory.createObjectBuilder()
          .add("type", "home")
          .add("number", "212 555-1234"))
      .add(factory.createObjectBuilder()
          .add("type", "fax")
          .add("number", "646 555-4567"))
      .build();
