Json object returning null against given key

Question

I\'m trying to read JSON from string (obtained from web), but it returns null.

Specifically, result.append(name + id); gives me nulln

Answer 1

"id" and "name" are inside the JSON object against the key "rikeard". So you need to make changes like following:

JSONParser parser = new JSONParser();
try {
    Object obj = parser.parse(datJ);
    JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) obj;
    JSONObject rikeardObject = (JSONObject) obj.get("rikeard");
    String name = (String) rikeardObject.get("name");
    Integer id = (Integer) rikeardObject.get("id");
    result.append(name + id);

} catch (MalformedURLException e1) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e1) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (org.json.simple.parser.ParseException e1) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e1.printStackTrace();
}
