129<div class="block">Base class for all JSON nodes, which form the basis of JSON
130 Tree Model that Jackson implements.
131 One way to think of these nodes is to consider them
132 similar to DOM nodes in XML DOM trees.
133<p>
134 As a general design rule, most accessors ("getters") are included
135 in this base class, to allow for traversing structure without
136 type casts. Most mutators, however, need to be accessed through
137 specific sub-classes (such as <code>ObjectNode</code>
138 and <code>ArrayNode</code>).
139 This seems sensible because proper type
140 information is generally available when building or modifying
141 trees, but less often when reading a tree (newly built from
142 parsed JSON content).
143<p>
144 Actual concrete sub-classes can be found from package
145 <a href="../../../../com/fasterxml/jackson/databind/node/package-summary.html"><code>com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.node</code></a>.
146<p>
147 Note that it is possible to "read" from nodes, using
148 method <code>TreeNode.traverse(ObjectCodec)</code>, which will result in
149 a <code>JsonParser</code> being constructed. This can be used for (relatively)
150 efficient conversations between different representations; and it is what
151 core databind uses for methods like <a href="../../../../com/fasterxml/jackson/databind/ObjectMapper.html#treeToValue-com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode-java.lang.Class-"><code>ObjectMapper.treeToValue(TreeNode, Class)</code></a>
