Hi All,
I do not know if this is a related forum or not but I am working in web so I guess it will be. I have a situation where I am getting a json String from request in a java class. Now I want to parse the json string to get appropriate values. Can anyone tell me which library should I use for this. An example will be great.

I used this Java implementation of JSON: http://www.json.org/java/index.html. There are others, but JSON is pretty simple so there isn't much to go wrong. As for examples, you've got the API documentation there and you'll see it's pretty simple. It should only take you a few minutes to figure out which objects to use.

You have to cast it to a JSONObject and then get the values using the getter methods.
