JsonValue

java.lang.Object
- com.dkfqs.tools.json.eclipsesource.JsonValue

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

JsonArray, JsonObject
```
public abstract class JsonValue
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
```
Represents a JSON value. This can be a JSON object, an array, a number, a string, or one of the literals true, false, and null.
The literals true, false, and null are represented by the constants TRUE, FALSE, and NULL.

JSON objects and arrays are represented by the subtypes JsonObject and JsonArray. Instances of these types can be created using the public constructors of these classes.

Instances that represent JSON numbers, strings and boolean values can be created using the static factory methods valueOf(String), valueOf(long), valueOf(double), etc.

In order to find out whether an instance of this class is of a certain type, the methods isObject(), isArray(), isString(), isNumber() etc. can be used.

If the type of a JSON value is known, the methods asObject(), asArray(), asString(), asInt(), etc. can be used to get this value directly in the appropriate target type.

This class is not supposed to be extended by clients.

  - equals
```
public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)
```
    Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one according to the contract specified in Object.equals(Object).
    Two JsonValues are considered equal if and only if they represent the same JSON text. As a consequence, two given JsonObjects may be different even though they contain the same set of names with the same values, but in a different order.
