<div class="block">Provides an object model API to process <a href="http://json.org/">JSON</a>.
<p>The object model API is a high-level API that provides immutable object
models for JSON object and array structures. These JSON structures are
represented as object models using the Java types <a href="JsonObject.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonObject</code></a>
and <a href="JsonArray.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonArray</code></a>. The interface <code>jakarta.json.JsonObject</code> provides
a <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/Map.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.util" class="externalLink"><code>Map</code></a> view to access the unordered collection of zero or
more name/value pairs from the model. Similarly, the interface
<code>JsonArray</code> provides a <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/List.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.util" class="externalLink"><code>List</code></a> view to access the
ordered sequence of zero or more values from the model.
<p>The object model API uses builder patterns to create and modify
these object models. The classes <a href="JsonObjectBuilder.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonObjectBuilder</code></a> and
<a href="JsonArrayBuilder.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonArrayBuilder</code></a> provide methods to create and modify models
of type <code>JsonObject</code> and <code>JsonArray</code> respectively.
<p>These object models can also be created from an input source using
the class <a href="JsonReader.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonReader</code></a>. Similarly, these object models
can be written to an output source using the class <a href="JsonWriter.html" title="interface in jakarta.json"><code>JsonWriter</code></a>.
<p>
This package includes several classes that implement other JSON related
standards: <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901">JSON Pointer</a>,
<a Href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902">JSON Patch</a>, and
<a Href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396">JSON Merge Patch</a>.
They can be used to retrieve, transform or manipulate values in an
object model.</div>
