JSON Formatter (& Validator!) Gson - Google Code. Gson is a Java library that can be used to convert Java Objects into their JSON representation.
It can also be used to convert a JSON string to an equivalent Java object. Gson can work with arbitrary Java objects including pre-existing objects that you do not have source-code of. There are a few open-source projects that can convert Java objects to JSON. However, most of them require that you place Java annotations in your classes; something that you can not do if you do not have access to the source-code. Most also do not fully support the use of Java Generics. Welcome to SOJO -
