Overview

This project contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson. While the original use case was JSON data-binding, it can typically be used for other data formats as well, as long as parser and generator implementations exist.

Project contains versions 2.0 and above: source code for earlier (1.x) versions is available from Codehaus SVN repository

Note that the main differences compared to 1.0 core jar are:

  • Maven build instead of Ant
  • Java package is now com.fasterxml.jackson.databind (instead of org.codehaus.jackson.map)
