How you can convert JsonArray from String of JsonArray format in Java?

Question

Now, I try to link that fullcalendar in jQuery UI and Database(Oracle 10g). But, a problem has occurred.

I want to parse that JsonArray from String of JsonArray format.

ex) String of JsonArray format

-> String jsonArrayStr="[{test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'},
 {test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}, 
 {test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}]";

String of JsonArray format->JsonArray

->JSONArray jsonArray = **(?)**

Answer 1

like this using this library

String jsonArrayStr="[{test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'},{test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}, {test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}]";
JSONArray jrr = new JSONArray(jsonArrayStr);

• user3363859: Thank you. I tried to your method. but Error occurred that "The constructor JSONArray(String) is undefined".
• Vinay: Are you using the library which I linked in my answer? [code.google.com/p/org-json-java/downloads/…
• user3363859: I succeeded that convert to JsonArray from String of JsonArray format. And I try to convert that JsonObject from JsonObject in JsonArray. Could you explain about this method?
• Vinay: No you cannot convert jsonarray to jsonobject as contents with in {} are jsonobject and [] and these are jsonarray you need to change the structure. the things are key and value pairs like {key : value } in jsonobject and and [val, val, val] in json array.

You are confusing me with your tags: "java" and "jquery", did you mean "JavaScript"? Because Java has no relation with jQuery....

If you mean JavaScript, this may be your solution:

var jsonArrayStr = "[{test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'},{test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}, {test1:'test',test2:2,test3:'test3'}]";
var jsonArray = JSON.parse( jsonArrayStr );

If you mean really Java, try the following code:

JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonArrayStr);

Dependencies:

import org.json.simple.JSONArray;
import org.json.simple.JSONObject;

• Scary Wombat: maybe tags are confusing but OP does ask How you can convert JsonArray from String of JsonArray format in Java?
• ReeCube: maybe he doesn't know the difference? Anyway it's confusing!
• user3363859: Thank you. but I have been called server form Data in JavaScript for client. This data is value of String.
