Question regarding marshalling and unmarshalling

[hdevml]

Hi all,

1. While marshalling it spits out a JSONObject object? Which library's
JSONObject is this? I looked at the source and could not find a
JSONObject class.

2. Does unmarshalling support unmarshalling from a String? or do I
have to unmarshal it to a JSONObject first and then to the real
object?

3. In marshalling, is there any option to marshall it directly to
Strings?

Please let me know.

Thanks

It looks like the introduction wiki page is
outdated,Marshaller.marshall(T t) returns a Json.Value.

You have to do both actions in two steps. Of course you can nest the two
calls to make it one line.

Kind regards,

Are there performance implications of point 2 and 3. Since it becomes a 2 step process? i.e. converting from String to Json.Value and then converting to the actual object?

If there are, Is there a possibility that a direct method will be created for conversion to/from a String for performance reason?

Performance should be a non issue. The JsonMarshaller is very fast, and has been optimized a lot.
