ConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator (Microsphere :: Java :: Core 0.1.3 API)

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.Comparable<Prioritized>, Prioritized

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator, ReflectiveConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator
```
public interface ConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator
extends Prioritized
```
ConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator is an interface that defines the contract for generating JSON representations of ConfigurationProperty objects.
Implementations of this interface are responsible for converting a ConfigurationProperty into a JSON string. This can be useful for serialization, logging, or transmitting configuration metadata in a standardized format.
Example Usage
```
 
 ConfigurationProperty property = new ConfigurationProperty("server.port", "8080", "The port number");
 ConfigurationPropertyJSONGenerator generator = new SomeConcreteGenerator();
 String json = generator.generate(property);
 // json might look like: {"name":"server.port","value":"8080","description":"The port number"}
 
 
```
