Binding to JSON & XML - Geocode Example

In a previous post I introduced the JSON binding that was added in the MOXy component in EclipseLink 2.4.  In that post I explained how the same metadata that is used for XML binding can be directly applied to JSON binding.  In this post I will demonstrate how powerful this is, by mapping one object model to both XML and JSON using the same set of metadata.  Google Maps Geocoding API V2 will be used to provide the XML and JSON inputs for this example.

You can try this out now using a download available from:

XPath Based Mapping - Geocode Example

In a previous post I introduced MOXy's XPath based mapping JAXB extension.  In this post I'll use Google Maps Geocoding API V2 to demonstrate how powerful this extension is.
