REST and JSON - converting string to JSON array

Question

I\'m new to JSON and REST. I\'m working with a server that returns strings like these:

[{\"username\":\"Hello\",\"email\":\"hello@email.com\",\"credits\":\"1         


        

Answer 1

I have used org.json.simple.JSONObject and org.json.simple.JSONArray, and I hope net.sf.json.JSONArray also work same.

You should put following string format for output (JSONArray array = new JSONArray(output); )

 {"YOUR_ARRAY_NAME": [{"username":"Hello","email":"hello@email.com","credits":"100","twitter_username":""},{"username":"Goodbye","email":"goodbye@email.com","credits":"0","twitter_username":""}]}

Now this is String representation of JSONArray.
