toJavaList

public <T> List<T> toJavaList(String json,
                              Class<T> type)
                   throws FacebookJsonMappingException

Description copied from interface: JsonMapper

Given a JSON string, create and return a new instance of a corresponding Java list which contains elements of type type.

The Java type must have a visible no-argument constructor.

Specified by:

toJavaList in interface JsonMapper

Type Parameters:

T - Java type to map to for each element of the list.

Parameters:

json - The JSON to be mapped to a Java type.

type - Java type token.

Returns:

A Java object (of type List which contains elements of type type) representation of the JSON input.

Throws:

FacebookJsonMappingException - If an error occurs while mapping JSON to Java.

JsonMapper.toJavaList(java.lang.String, java.lang.Class)

toJavaObject

public <T> T toJavaObject(String json,
                          Class<T> type)
               throws FacebookJsonMappingException

Description copied from interface: JsonMapper

Given a JSON string, create and return a new instance of a corresponding Java object of type type.

The Java type must have a visible no-argument constructor.

Specified by:

toJavaObject in interface JsonMapper

Type Parameters:

T - Java type to map to.

Parameters:

json - The JSON to be mapped to a Java type.

type - Java type token.

Returns:

A Java object (of type type) representation of the JSON input.

Throws:

FacebookJsonMappingException - If an error occurs while mapping JSON to Java.

toJson

public String toJson(Object object)
              throws FacebookJsonMappingException

Description copied from interface: JsonMapper

Given a Java object, create and return a JSON string that represents it.

The object's properties will be traversed recursively, allowing for arbitrarily complex JSON generation.

Specified by:

toJson in interface JsonMapper

Parameters:

object - The Java object to map to JSON. Can be a Javabean, List, or Map.

Returns:

A JSON string.

Throws:

FacebookJsonMappingException - If an error occurs while mapping Java to JSON.
