All Known Subinterfaces:: OracleJsonArray, OracleJsonBinary, OracleJsonDate, OracleJsonDecimal, OracleJsonDouble, OracleJsonFloat, OracleJsonIntervalDS, OracleJsonIntervalYM, OracleJsonNumber, OracleJsonObject, OracleJsonString, OracleJsonStructure, OracleJsonTimestamp, OracleJsonTimestampTZ

public interface OracleJsonValue

The interface for JSON type in Oracle Database. This is the super type of all JSON type values: OracleJsonObject, OracleJsonArray, OracleJsonString, OracleJsonDecimal, OracleJsonFloat, OracleJsonDouble, OracleJsonTimestamp, OracleJsonTimestampTZ, OracleJsonDate, OracleJsonBinary, OracleJsonIntervalDS, OracleJsonIntervalYM, OracleJsonValue.TRUE, OracleJsonValue.FALSE, and OracleJsonValue.NULL. Use the method getOracleJsonType() to determine the specific type of a value.

Example:

 
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonArray;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonDouble;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonFactory;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonObject;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonString;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonValue;
  import oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonValue.OracleJsonType;
  
  public class JsonValueExample {
  
    public static void main(String[] args) {
  
      OracleJsonFactory factory = new OracleJsonFactory();
  
      OracleJsonArray arr = factory.createArray();
      arr.add(factory.createString("foo"));
      arr.add(factory.createDouble(123.456d));
      
      OracleJsonObject obj = factory.createObject();
      obj.put("hello", "world");
      arr.add(obj);
  
      arr.add(OracleJsonValue.NULL);
      arr.add(OracleJsonValue.TRUE);
      
      System.out.println(arr.toString());
      
      for (OracleJsonValue value : arr) {
        OracleJsonType kind = value.getOracleJsonType();
        System.out.println(kind);
        switch (kind) {
        case DOUBLE:
          OracleJsonDouble jsonDouble = value.asJsonDouble();
          System.out.println(" - " + jsonDouble.doubleValue());
          break;
        case STRING:
          OracleJsonString jsonString = value.asJsonString();
          System.out.println(" - " + jsonString.getString());
          break;
        case OBJECT:
          OracleJsonObject jsonObject = value.asJsonObject();
          System.out.println(" - " + jsonObject.toString());
          break;
        case TRUE:
        case NULL:
          break; // do nothing
        default:
          throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected");
        }
      }
    }
  }

Running this example prints:

  ["foo",123.456,{"hello":"world"},null,true]
  STRING
   - foo
  DOUBLE
   - 123.456
  OBJECT
   - {"hello":"world"}
  NULL
  TRUE

Field Detail

NULL
```
static final OracleJsonValue NULL
```
JSON null.

TRUE
```
static final OracleJsonValue TRUE
```
JSON true.

FALSE
```
static final OracleJsonValue FALSE
```
JSON false.

Method Detail

getOracleJsonType
```
OracleJsonValue.OracleJsonType getOracleJsonType()
```
Returns the type of this JSON value.

Returns:

the value type

toString
```
String toString()
```
Returns the JSON text for this value.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

JSON text

wrap

<T> T wrap(Class<T> wrapper)

Returns a JSON-P (javax.json) wrapper around this value. For example:

    
      import javax.json.JsonObject;
      ...
      OracleJsonObject oraObject = ...;
      JsonObject  jsonObject = oraObject.wrap(JsonObject.class);

The returned object is a logical view of the underlying value. Any changes to the value will be observed by the returned wrapper object. All instances of javax.json.JsonValue produced by JDBC implement the java.sql.Wrapper interface which can be used to map back to an instance of oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonValue. For example:

    
      import javax.json.JsonObject;
      import java.sql.Wrapper
      ...
      JsonObject jsonObject = ...;
      OracleJsonObject oraObject = ((Wrapper)jsonObject).unwrap(OracleJsonObject.class);

The following table summarizes the object-model mappings between oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonValue and javax.json.JsonValue.

`oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonObject`	`javax.json.JsonObject`
`oracle.sql.json.OracleJsonArray`	`javax.json.JsonArray`
