• Recursive traversal of Maps, Iterables (Collection, List, Set etc.), Enumerations, arrays and ResourceBundles
• Data structure loop detection
• Reflection of objects is supported allowing lazy encoding of objects
• Property name validation (can use ECMAScript or JSON rules)
• Output to String or java.io.Writer
• JSON parsing to Java objects from Strings or java.io.Reader
• Options to fix certain types of bad data
• Automatic escaping of characters required to be escaped by the JSON standard.
• Several different escaping options
• Option to format dates on output and handle different formats when parsing
• ECMAScript 6 code point escapes are supported for reading and optionally for writing
• Supports Java 5, 6, 7 and 8.
• Options to support arbitrary precision numbers
