public class JacksonXMLToJsonNodeMapper
extends JacksonXMLToObjectMapper<com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode>
implements Mapper<com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode>

A specialized Mapper that loads the contents of a valid XML Source (e.g.: file, URL, string) and converts it into a JsonNode, using Jackson's XmlMapper.

Because of differences between XML and JSON formats, there are certain limitations with Jackson's XML tree traversal support:

• Jackson cannot differentiate between an Object and an Array. Since XML lacks native structures to distinguish an object from a list of objects, Jackson will simply collate repeated elements into a single value.
• Since Jackson maps each XML element to a JSON node, it doesn't support mixed content (elements/attributes and text in same element).

Additional details can be found at Jackson's official documentation.

Notes:

• Conversion from XML to JSON may vary depending on the Mapper implementation.
• Support for Jackson modules lookup is disabled for this type of mapper.
