Convert JSON to XML in Java

Question

Are there any .jars out there that can be used to convert JSON to XML? A lot of the answers on SO contain dead links or involve complex configuration.

Ideally it would be nice just to include a jar in my existing project that currently converts XML to JSON. I just need it the other way around to be complete.

Have a look at [apache camel](http://camel.apache.org/xmljson.html) — Aleks G, Feb 13 '13 at 09:44

Have a look at this article:

http://answers.oreilly.com/topic/279-how-to-convert-json-to-xml-in-java/

From the article:

Use json-lib, a library which adds JSON support to any Java program. json-lib provides an XMLSerializer which can be used to output XML from a JSON object.

Indeed this is faster, but the output xml is a bit crappy. – Samuel EUSTACHI Feb 13 '13 at 09:49

I would recommand to convert JSON to java classes (using GSON for instance), then the java classes to XML (possibly using JAXB). Then you'll have a comprehensive way to manage how you want to perform the conversion.
