How to parse JSON Array Not Json Object in Android

Question

I have a trouble finding a way how to parse JSONArray  It looks like this      name   name1   url   url1     name   name2   url   url2          I  know how to parse it if the JSON was written differently  In other words  if I had json object returned instead of an array of objects    But it s all I have and have to go with it    EDIT  It is a valid json  I made an iPhone app using this json  now I need to do it for Android and cannot figure it out  There are a lot of examples out there  but they are all JSONObject related  I need something for JSONArray   Can somebody please give me some hint  or a tutorial or an example   Much appreciated

Create a POJO Java Class for the objects in the list like so:

class NameUrlClass{
       private String name;
       private String url;
       //Constructor
       public NameUrlClass(String name,String url){
              this.name = name;
              this.url = url; 
        }
}

Now simply create a List of NameUrlClass and initialize it to an ArrayList like so:

List<NameUrlClass> obj = new ArrayList<NameUrlClass>;

You can use store the JSON array in this object

obj = JSONArray;//[{"name":"name1","url":"url1"}{"name":"name2","url":"url2"},...]

A few great suggestions are already mentioned  Using GSON is really handy indeed  and to make life even easier you can try this website It s called jsonschema2pojo and does exactly that   You give it your json and it generates a java object that can paste in your project  You can select GSON to annotate your variables  so extracting the object from your json gets even easier

I ll just give a little Jackson example   First create a data holder which has the fields from JSON string     imports         JsonIgnoreProperties ignoreUnknown   true  public class MyDataHolder        JsonProperty  name       public String mName        JsonProperty  url       public String mUrl      And parse list of MyDataHolders  String jsonString      your json ObjectMapper mapper   new ObjectMapper    List lt MyDataHolder gt  list   mapper readValue jsonString       new TypeReference lt ArrayList lt MyDataHolder gt  gt           Using list items  String firstName   list get 0  mName  String secondName   list get 1  mName

Stebra See this example  This may help you       public class CustomerInfo            SerializedName  customerid       public String customerid       SerializedName  picture       public String picture        SerializedName  location       public String location       public CustomerInfo              And when you get the result  parse like this  List lt CustomerInfo gt  customers   null  customers    List lt CustomerInfo gt  gson fromJson result  new TypeToken lt List lt CustomerInfo gt  gt       getType

In this example there are several objects inside one json array  That is   This is the json array     name   name1   url   url1     name   name2   url   url2         This is one object    name   name1   url   url1    Assuming that you have got the result to a String variable called jSonResultString   JSONArray arr   new JSONArray jSonResultString        loop through each object   for  int i 0  i lt arr length    i        JSONObject jsonProductObject   arr getJSONObject i     String name   jsonProductObject getString  name      String url   jsonProductObject getString  url
