This artifact provides a single jar that contains all classes required to use remote Jakarta Enterprise Beans and Jakarta Messaging, including all dependencies. It is intended for use by those not using maven, maven users should just import the Jakarta Enterprise Beans and Jakarta Messaging BOM's instead (shaded JAR's cause lots of problems with maven, as it is very easy to inadvertently end up with different versions on classes on the class path).

There is a newer version: 35.0.0.Beta1

/**
 * Provides an object model API to process JSON.
 *
 * The object model API is a high-level API that provides immutable object
 * models for JSON object and array structures. These JSON structures are
 * represented as object models using the Java types {@link javax.json.JsonObject}
 * and {@link javax.json.JsonArray}. The interface {@code javax.json.JsonObject} provides
 * a {@link java.util.Map} view to access the unordered collection of zero or
 * more name/value pairs from the model. Similarly, the interface
 * {@code JsonArray} provides a {@link java.util.List} view to access the
 * ordered sequence of zero or more values from the model.
 *
 * 
The object model API uses builder patterns to create and modify
 * these object models. The classes {@link javax.json.JsonObjectBuilder} and 
 * {@link javax.json.JsonArrayBuilder} provide methods to create and modify models
 * of type {@code JsonObject} and {@code JsonArray} respectively.
 *
 * 
These object models can also be created from an input source using
 * the class {@link javax.json.JsonReader}. Similarly, these object models
 * can be written to an output source using the class {@link javax.json.JsonWriter}.
 * 
 * This package includes several classes that implement other JSON related
 * standards: JSON Pointer,
 * JSON Patch, and
 * JSON Merge Patch.
 * They can be used to retrieve, transform or manipulate values in an
 * object model.
