Just to be clear. I have the following code:

    public Response update(@QueryParam("format") String format,
MultivaluedMap<String, String> formParamsMulti) {
      
        Map formParamsMap = convertMultiToSingleValueMap(formParamsMulti);

        String postalAddresses = (String)
formParamsMap.get("PostalAddress");

    }

postalAddresses contains a JSON String. I have a JAXB generated class
for PostalAddress and need to know how to unmarshal a PostalAddress
object from the JSON String. Thanks.
