1.2.0 (2024-07-26)

Features Added

• JsonArray, JsonBoolean, JsonElement, JsonNull, JsonNumber, JsonObject, and JsonString have been added
  to represent a JSON structure with an object-oriented approach. JsonElement can be used to generically deserialize
  JSON content and retain JSON typing information. All classes support serialization to JSON, either at the root or as
  a portion of the overall JSON structure.
• Convenience APIs have been added to JsonSerializable to support deserialization directly from String, byte[],
  InputStream, and Reader sources without needing to use JsonProviders to create a JsonReader instance and to
  support serialization directly to String, byte[], OutputStream, and Writer targets without needing to use
  JsonProviders to create a JsonWriter instance.
• Overloads to JsonWriter's writeArray, writeArrayField, writeMap and writeMapField methods have been added
  that can control how null elements in the array or null key-value pair values are handled in serialization.

Bugs Fixed

• A bug was fixed in JsonWriter's writeArray, writeArrayField, writeMap, and writeMapField methods when handling
  null element values or null key-value pair values in serialization. Previously, handling of null values was left to
  the WriteValueCallback supplied to the methods, and if the callback method being used skipped writing null values it
  would result in JSON arrays dropping elements and an exception in Map serialization. Now, null values are always
  written in the basic overload and in the new overloads that accept boolean skipNullElements / boolean skipNullValues,
  null values are skipped if the corresponding boolean is set to true. The basic overload will have a difference in
  JSON produced, but it will be the correct representation of the data.
