You can grab a set of Java classes to handle JSON at http://json.org/java/

There you can find the XML and JSONObject classes, among others. This code could work for you:

public String XMLtoJSON(String xml) {
    JSONObject jsonObj = XML.toJSONObject(xml);
    String json = jsonObj.toString();
    return json;
}

In @antur123's answer, I believe all instances of "string" should be "String", in which case that code should work. – ultrageek Nov 14 '11 at 07:59

You need to import org.json.XML in your class to resolve XML. Or Put org.json.XML to your classpath.

Underscore-java can convert xml to json.

import com.github.underscore.U;

String xml = "<xx yy=\"nn\"><mm>zzz</mm></xx>";

String json = U.xmlToJson(xml);  
System.out.println(json);
