Is there a SaxParser that reads json and fires events so it looks like xml

Question

This would be great as it would allow my xml stuff to read json w/out any change except for the different sax parser.

Answer 1

If you meant, event-based parser then there are a couple of projects out there that do this:

1. http://code.google.com/p/json-simple/

   Stoppable SAX-like interface for streaming input of JSON text

   This project has moved to https://github.com/fangyidong/json-simple

2. http://jackson.codehaus.org/Tutorial

   Jackson Streaming API is similar to Stax API

   This project has moved to https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core
