Convert JSON to/from Java Object in Java (Gson):
import com.google.gson.Gson;
class Person {
private String name;
private int age;
public String getName() {return name;}
public int getAge() {return age;}
}
public class JsonParser {
// Constructors, getters, setters...
public static void main(String[] args) {
String jsonString = "{\"name\":\"Mika\",\"age\":30}";
// Create Gson instance
Gson gson = new Gson();
// Convert JSON to Java Object
Person person = gson.fromJson(jsonString, Person.class);
// Access the Java Object
System.out.println("JSON to Person:");
System.out.println("Name: " + person.getName());
System.out.println("Age: " + person.getAge());
String json = gson.toJson(person);
System.out.println("Person to JSON String:");
System.out.println(json);
}
}
Output:
