How to convert XML to JSON in Java? Example

Since XML and JSON are two popular data interchange formats, you will often need to convert one into other. For example, many SOAP web services returns XML response and if you are using Java and wants to convert that XML response to JSON, then you can use JSON library from https://json.org. It provides a class called XML.java, which provides static methods to convert an XML text into a JSONObject. It also support JSON to XML conversion, which will learn in second part of the article. In order to use this class, you can dowload JAR files from Maven Central repository, or you can add required dependency in your pom.xml file.
