Unless it's some unchangeable legacy system, I can't imagine how one would justify twisting data in this way. And besides, this approach doesn't allow the app to be "unchangeable"; you'd have to adopt a new schema, and as long as you're doing that you might as well just switch to a real JSON parser.
Even their simple example makes my head hurt...

It seems to be allow JSON data to be consumed and produced by an existing IBM toolchain designed for handling XML; which is probably useful for organizations that have invested heavily in the XML toolchain.
- chaz72 12y agoYes, I think so. I mean, it is ridiculous and horrible, but ... After thinking through it for a few minutes and pairing it with an XSL schema translator, this could enable some integration on systems where there is no code and it's all pure XML data driven.
- anacleto 12y agoI totally agree. The title should be: "LOL: JSONx is an IBM standard format to represent JSON as XML."
