parsing URL in String from JSON


1) I've got a JSON file:

{
  "serverURI":"http://localhost:8080/PocketUNI_API/serverURLs",
  "newsURI":"http://localhost:8080/gateway/rss/rss.xml",
  "modulesURI":"http://localhost:8080/PocketUNI_API/modules"
}

2) I need to get URLs on Java client in String format.

String json = jsonReceiver.makeHttpRequest(URL_SERVER, "GET", params);
JSONArray uris = new JSONArray(json);

Receiver works fine and json shows the correct string received, but when it goes to parsing with JSONArray it throws an error

org.json.JSONException: Value {"serverURI":"http:\/\/192.168.0.... of type org.json.JSONObject cannot be converted to JSONArray. 

Question: How to parse json with URL values?


Solution

  • You don't get a JSONArray but a JSONObject.

    JSONObject uris = new JSONObject(json);
