This post explains how to read json data as a stream. The previous post explains the same using JsonReader. The difference is that to use JsonReader we need to build the entire object (which represents json data) in memory. Whereas with JsonParser we dont need to build the entire object. The below code explains how…… Continue reading Reading json data in streaming way

Marshalling and Unmarshalling java class
1) First we need to create jaxb context as shown below. A instance of this class is always required, as it is through this class we get marshaller and unmarshaller objects JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(Country.class); An instance of JAXBContext is thread safe but it is heavy weight object. So it is recommended to reuse the…… Continue reading Marshalling and Unmarshalling java class
How to use SequenceInputStream
SequenceInputStream reads data from multiple inputstreams in an order. It starts with first inputstream and once it is done reading the first inputstream, it starts reading data from the next available inputstream. Two constructors are available for creating an instance of this stream. First one being SequenceInputStream(InputStream s1, InputStream s2) The above constructors limits us…… Continue reading How to use SequenceInputStream
Updating an existing json data
This post explain how we can update an existing json data stored in a file.
