Converting an CSV file to a JSON object in Java

Question

Is there an open source java library to convert a CSV (or XLS) file to a JSON object?

I tried using json.cdl, but somehow it does not seem to work for large CSV stri

Answer 1

You can use Open CSV to map CSV to a Java Bean, and then use JAXB to convert the Java Bean into a JSON object.
