Method Detail

asBigDecimal

public static java.math.BigDecimal asBigDecimal(java.lang.String jsonNumberString)

Helper method for converting JSON number Strings into BigDecimals.

Parameters:

jsonNumberString - a String representation of a JSON number.

Returns:

a BigDecimal representing the given JSON number String.

Throws:

java.lang.NumberFormatException - if the given String is not a valid JSON number.

asBigInteger

public static java.math.BigInteger asBigInteger(java.lang.String jsonNumberString)

Helper method for converting JSON number Strings into BigIntegers.

Parameters:

jsonNumberString - a String representation of an integer JSON number.

Returns:

a BigInteger representing the given JSON number String.

Throws:

java.lang.NumberFormatException - if the given String is not a valid JSON number or is not an integer.

asDouble

public static java.lang.Double asDouble(java.lang.String jsonNumberString)

Helper method for converting JSON number Strings into Doubles. Note that use of this method is risky as java Doubles have limited precision, whereas JSON numbers have unlimited precision, i.e. converting a JSON number to a Double may result is a loss of accuracy.

Parameters:

jsonNumberString - a String representation of an integer JSON number.

Returns:

a Double representing the given JSON number String.

Throws:

java.lang.NumberFormatException - if the given String is not a valid JSON number.

asInteger

public static java.lang.Integer asInteger(java.lang.String jsonNumberString)

Helper method for converting JSON number Strings into Integers. Note that use of this method is risky as java Integers have limited precision (between Integer.MIN_VALUE and Integer.MAX_VALUE) whereas JSON numbers have unlimited precision.

Parameters:

jsonNumberString - a String representation of an integer JSON number.

Returns:

a Integer representing the given JSON number String.

Throws:

java.lang.NumberFormatException - if the given String is not a valid JSON number or is not an integer.
