storing xml inside json object

Question

I need to store complete xml document as part of json object. when i receive the request and try to create json object from json string like below -

{"content":{
"name" : "xyz",
"details":"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
 <ns0:Report xmlns:ns0=\"http://www.khisko.com/triTypes\">
  <StackTrace>Job-8004 Error in [xxxxxxxxxx]
      Output data invalid&#xD;
  at com.xyz.tst.a(Unknown Source)&#xD;
      caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException&#xD;
   </StackTrace>
   <Msg>Output data invalid</Msg>
  </ns0:Report>"
 }}

I am getting Unterminated string error at first char of details. how can i handle it.

i am using org.json.JSONObject constructor which takes java string as parameter and passing above json as java string.

Thanks

You can encode and decode xml string like

{
  "content": {
    "name": "xyz",
    "details": "PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj1cIjEuMFwiIGVuY29kaW5nPVwiVVRGLThcIj8+CiA8bnMwOlJlcG9ydCB4bWxuczpuczA9XCJodHRwOi8vd3d3LmtoaXNrby5jb20vdHJpVHlwZXNcIj4KICA8U3RhY2tUcmFjZT5Kb2ItODAwNCBFcnJvciBpbiBbeHh4eHh4eHh4eF0KICAgICAgT3V0cHV0IGRhdGEgaW52YWxpZCYjeEQ7CiAgYXQgY29tLnh5ei50c3QuYShVbmtub3duIFNvdXJjZSkmI3hEOwogICAgICBjYXVzZWQgYnk6IGphdmEubGFuZy5OdWxsUG9pbnRlckV4Y2VwdGlvbiYjeEQ7CiAgIDwvU3RhY2tUcmFjZT4KICAgPE1zZz5PdXRwdXQgZGF0YSBpbnZhbGlkPC9Nc2c+CiAgPC9uczA6UmVwb3J0Pg==",
