java - Reverse ToStringBuilder : convert string to object -

is there way convert output tostringbuilder java object?

i looking easy way represent java object in readable text file , being able convert , forth between string , object.

thanks,

you must define strict format , follow parser. there 2 accepted formats:

• xml - can use java.beans.xmlencoder
• json - use jackson or gson

if don't choose these formats have handle parsing yourself.

the tostringbuilder not seem have reverse equivalent. furthermore wrong use string representation such purposes - meant debug.
