JSON is a light-weight, language independent, data interchange format.
See http://www.JSON.org/
The files in this package implement JSON encoders/decoders in Java.
It also includes the capability to convert between JSON and XML, HTTP
headers, Cookies, and CDL.
This is a reference implementation. There is a large number of JSON packages
in Java. Perhaps someday the Java community will standardize on one. Until
then, choose carefully.
The license includes this restriction: "The software shall be used for good,
not evil." If your conscience cannot live with that, then choose a different
package.

/**
* A JSON Pointer is a simple query language defined for JSON documents by
* RFC 6901.
*
* In a nutshell, JSONPointer allows the user to navigate into a JSON document
* using strings, and retrieve targeted objects, like a simple form of XPATH.
* Path segments are separated by the '/' char, which signifies the root of
* the document when it appears as the first char of the string. Array
* elements are navigated using ordinals, counting from 0. JSONPointer strings
* may be extended to any arbitrary number of segments. If the navigation
* is successful, the matched item is returned. A matched item may be a
* JSONObject, a JSONArray, or a JSON value. If the JSONPointer string building
* fails, an appropriate exception is thrown. If the navigation fails to find
* a match, a JSONPointerException is thrown.
*
