/**
* Provides a streaming API to parse and generate
* JSON.
*
*
* The streaming API consists of the interfaces
* {@link javax.json.stream.JsonParser} and
* {@link javax.json.stream.JsonGenerator}. The interface {@code JsonParser}
* contains methods to parse JSON in a streaming way. The interface
* {@code JsonGenerator} contains methods to write JSON to an output source
* in a streaming way.
*
*
* {@code JsonParser} provides forward, read-only access to JSON data using the
* pull parsing programming model. In this model the application code controls
* the thread and calls methods in the parser interface to move the parser
* forward or to obtain JSON data from the current state of the parser.
*
*
* {@code JsonGenerator} provides methods to write JSON to an output source.
* The generator writes name/value pairs in JSON objects and values in JSON
* arrays.
*
*
* The streaming API is a low-level API designed to process large amounts of
* JSON data efficiently. Other JSON frameworks (such as JSON binding) can be
* implemented using this API.
