To get all the keys in JSONObject into String array

Question

I want to create a json object from existing json object. For this i want to get all the keys in JSONObject to a String[] array. Is there any default method to get the keys

Answer 1

To construct JSONObject from other JSONObject you can use constructor that accept JSONObject and array of keys names that should be copied. To do it:

Iterator keysToCopyIterator = firstJSONObject.keys();
List keysList = new ArrayList();
while(keysToCopyIterator.hasNext()) {
    String key = (String) keysToCopyIterator.next();
    keysList.add(key);
}
String[] kesyArray = keysList.toArray(new String[keysList.size()]);
JSONObject secondJSONObject = new JSONObject(firstJSONObject, );
