/**
* This is the main class for using Gson. Gson is typically used by first constructing a
* Gson instance and then invoking {@link #toJson(Object)} or {@link #fromJson(String, Class)}
* methods on it.
*
* <p>You can create a Gson instance by invoking {@code new Gson()} if the default configuration
* is all you need. You can also use {@link GsonBuilder} to build a Gson instance with various
* configuration options such as versioning support, pretty printing, custom
* {@link JsonSerializer}s, {@link JsonDeserializer}s, and {@link InstanceCreator}s.</p>
*
* <p>Here is an example of how Gson is used for a simple Class:
*
* <pre>
* Gson gson = new Gson(); // Or use new GsonBuilder().create();
* MyType target = new MyType();
* String json = gson.toJson(target); // serializes target to Json
* MyType target2 = gson.fromJson(json, MyType.class); // deserializes json into target2
* </pre></p>
*
* <p>If the object that your are serializing/deserializing is a {@code ParameterizedType}
* (i.e. contains at least one type parameter and may be an array) then you must use the
* {@link #toJson(Object, Type)} or {@link #fromJson(String, Type)} method. Here is an
* example for serializing and deserialing a {@code ParameterizedType}:
*
* <pre>
* Type listType = new TypeToken<List<String>>() {}.getType();
* List<String> target = new LinkedList<String>();
* target.add("blah");
*
* Gson gson = new Gson();
* String json = gson.toJson(target, listType);
* List<String> target2 = gson.fromJson(json, listType);
* </pre></p>
*
* <p>See the <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/gson/gson-user-guide">Gson User Guide</a>
* for a more complete set of examples.</p>

* Constructs a Gson object with default configuration. The default configuration has the
* following settings:
* <ul>
* <li>The JSON generated by <code>toJson</code> methods is in compact representation. This
* means that all the unneeded white-space is removed. You can change this behavior with
* {@link GsonBuilder#setPrettyPrinting()}. </li>
* <li>The generated JSON omits all the fields that are null. Note that nulls in arrays are
* kept as is since an array is an ordered list. Moreover, if a field is not null, but its
* generated JSON is empty, the field is kept. You can configure Gson to serialize null values
* by setting {@link GsonBuilder#serializeNulls()}.</li>
* <li>Gson provides default serialization and deserialization for Enums, {@link Map},
* {@link java.net.URL}, {@link java.net.URI}, {@link java.util.Locale}, {@link java.util.Date},
* {@link java.math.BigDecimal}, and {@link java.math.BigInteger} classes. If you would prefer
* to change the default representation, you can do so by registering a type adapter through
* {@link GsonBuilder#registerTypeAdapter(Type, Object)}. </li>
* <li>The default Date format is same as {@link java.text.DateFormat#DEFAULT}. This format
* ignores the millisecond portion of the date during serialization. You can change
* this by invoking {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(int)} or
* {@link GsonBuilder#setDateFormat(String)}. </li>
* <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Expose} annotation.
* You can enable Gson to serialize/deserialize only those fields marked with this annotation
* through {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithoutExposeAnnotation()}. </li>
* <li>By default, Gson ignores the {@link com.google.gson.annotations.Since} annotation. You
* can enable Gson to use this annotation through {@link GsonBuilder#setVersion(double)}.</li>
* <li>The default field naming policy for the output Json is same as in Java. So, a Java class
* field <code>versionNumber</code> will be output as <code>"versionNumber@quot;</code> in
* Json. The same rules are applied for mapping incoming Json to the Java classes. You can
* change this policy through {@link GsonBuilder#setFieldNamingPolicy(FieldNamingPolicy)}.</li>
* <li>By default, Gson excludes <code>transient</code> or <code>static</code> fields from
* consideration for serialization and deserialization. You can change this behavior through
* {@link GsonBuilder#excludeFieldsWithModifiers(int...)}.</li>
* </ul>
