edu.wisc.game.reflect.JsonToJava

public class JsonToJava
extends Object

Tools for importing Java objects from JSON structures. The conversion is guided by the structure of the destination Java objects. Not every Java object can be deserialized by this technique; for example, if a Java object has a field of the type Vector (or Vector<Object>), rather than (or Vector<SomeClass>), this tool will not know what kind of objects it is to be filled with.
