Answer 1

It might be obvious, but make sure that you are sending to the parser URL object not a String containing www adress. This will not work:

    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    String www = "www.sample.pl";
    Weather weather = mapper.readValue(www, Weather.class);

But this will:

    ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
    URL www = new URL("http://www.oracle.com/");
    Weather weather = mapper.readValue(www, Weather.class);
