    • toString

      public String toString()
      Converts this JSON collection into a parsable string representation. Warning: This method assumes that the data structure is acyclical. Starting in release 5.2, the result will be pretty printed for readability.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      a printable, displayable, portable, transmittable representation of the object, beginning with { (left brace) and ending with } (right brace).

      Prints the JSONObject to the write (compactly or not).
