How can i send the request and receive the response (JSON ) via JAVA (android)?

Question

How can I send in java(android) the http request and parse response in JSON format. I know that this is simple but i'm newbie in Java (android).

It seems that you would want to send a simple http get request to the provided url. To send a simple GET request:

1. Create an object of HttpClient

HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();

2. Create an object of HttpGet

HttpGet request = new HttpGet("http://www.example.com");

3. make request to the server side

HttpResponse response;

try {
response = client.execute(request);

    Log.d("Response of GET request", response.toString());
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
      // TODO Auto-generated catch block
     e.printStackTrace();
}

Then depending on the format of your response, you want to parse it. Also don't forget to include necessary permission on your manifest.xml file such as permission to use internet.
