How to iterate JSON data in Android

Question

{   "gb": [
    {
      "omrid": "gis-n",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 1
    },
    {
      "omrid": "gis-s",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 1
    },
    {
      "omrid": "gis-c",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 1
    },
    {
      "omrid": "gis-h",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 1
    },
    {
      "omrid": "gis-g",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 1
    },
    {
      "omrid": "hes",
      "status": 0,
      "grupp": 2
    }   ] }

This above is my JSON String (edited shorter because it became too long here).

I'm trying to find a way to be able to iterate each group and create a togglebutton with them.

So what I'm trying to do is create a togglebutton with the name stated in "omrid" with the on/off status of "status". The "grupp" is for future use eventually to sort the toggles into groups but not important now.

I have searched and searched about this and noone seems to have my specific JSON string composition and I'm a bit of a noob with JSON/Android SDK.

I would use JSONObject. THer is no difference where you run in on Android or PC.

String str = "{" + 
            "    \"gb\": [" + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"gis-n\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 1" + 
            "        }," + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"gis-s\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 1" + 
            "        }," + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"gis-c\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 1" + 
            "        }," + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"gis-h\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 1" + 
            "        }," + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"gis-g\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 1" + 
            "        }," + 
            "        {" + 
            "            \"omrid\": \"hes\"," + 
            "            \"status\": 0," + 
            "            \"grupp\": 2" + 
            "        }" + 
            "    ]" + 
            "}";

    JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(str);

    JSONArray gb = jsonObject.getJSONArray("gb");

    for (int j = 0; j < gb.length(); j++) {
        JSONObject element = gb.getJSONObject(j);

        int status = element.getInt("status");
        int grupp = element.getInt("grupp");
        String omrid = element.getString("omrid");

        System.out.println("status=" + status + "; grupp=" + grupp + "; omrid=" + omrid);

//create togglebutton here
    }

Output:

status=0; grupp=1; omrid=gis-n
status=0; grupp=1; omrid=gis-s
status=0; grupp=1; omrid=gis-c
status=0; grupp=1; omrid=gis-h
status=0; grupp=1; omrid=gis-g
status=0; grupp=2; omrid=hes
