This worked for me  JSONObject jsonObj   new JSONObject    jsonObj put  quot phonetype quot   quot N95 quot    jsonObj put  quot cat quot   quot WP quot     jsonObj to  Hashmap as following using gson HashMap lt String  Object gt  hashmap   new Gson   fromJson jsonObj toString    HashMap class    package used  lt dependencies gt       lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org json lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt json lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 20180813 lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt       lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt com google code gson lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt gson lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 2 8 6 lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt   lt  dependencies gt

This is simple operation no need to use any external library   You can use this class instead     handles even lists   nested lists and json   public class Utility        public static Map lt String  Object gt  jsonToMap Object json  throws JSONException            if json instanceof JSONObject              return  jsonToMap   JSONObject json             else if  json instanceof String                        JSONObject jsonObject   new JSONObject  String json                return  jsonToMap  jsonObject                      return null              private static Map lt String  Object gt   jsonToMap  JSONObject json  throws JSONException           Map lt String  Object gt  retMap   new HashMap lt String  Object gt              if json    JSONObject NULL                retMap   toMap json                     return retMap              private static Map lt String  Object gt  toMap JSONObject object  throws JSONException           Map lt String  Object gt  map   new HashMap lt String  Object gt              Iterator lt String gt  keysItr   object keys            while keysItr hasNext                  String key   keysItr next                Object value   object get key                if value instanceof JSONArray                    value   toList  JSONArray  value                              else if value instanceof JSONObject                    value   toMap  JSONObject  value                             map put key  value                     return map              public static List lt Object gt  toList JSONArray array  throws JSONException           List lt Object gt  list   new ArrayList lt Object gt             for int i   0  i  lt  array length    i                  Object value   array get i               if value instanceof JSONArray                    value   toList  JSONArray  value                              else if value instanceof JSONObject                    value   toMap  JSONObject  value                             list add value                     return list              To convert your JSON string to hashmap use this     HashMap lt String  Object gt  hashMap   new HashMap lt  gt  Utility jsonToMap response

You could use Jackson to do this  I have yet to find a simple Gson solution   Where data map json is a JSON  object  resource file and data list json is a JSON  array  resource file   import java io

Don t do this yourself  I suggest  Use a library  e g  the Gson library from Google   https   code google com p google-gson

In Java we can do it using the following statement   We need to use Jackson ObjectMapper for the same and provide the HashMap class as the mapping class  Finally store the result as a HashMap object   HashMap lt String String gt  hashMap   new ObjectMapper   readValue jsonString  HashMap class
