Parsing JSON to POJO using GSON

Question

My JSON looks like follow :

\"message_defaults\": {
      \"LabResultsRequestDefaultMessage\": {
        \"MsgTypeId\": 8,
        \"StaffId\":

You can do the following without changing your json structure.

Type mapType = new TypeToken>() {}.getType();
Map messagesMap = gson.fromJson(json, mapType);
List messages = new ArrayList(messagesMap.values());
