How to test if JSON object is empty in Java

Question

The JSON object I\'m receiving looks like this:

[{\"foo1\":\"bar1\", \"foo2\":\"bar2\", \"problemkey\": \"problemvalue\"}]

What I\'m trying

Answer 1

Object getResult = obj.get("dps"); 
if (getResult != null && getResult instanceof java.util.Map && (java.util.Map)getResult.isEmpty()) {
    handleEmptyDps(); 
} 
else {
    handleResult(getResult); 
}
