POJSON Data Formatting
text
Body
copied!<p>I am passing the following JSON object from a .jsp page to a java servlet using JSON.stringify and JQuery.ajax():</p> <pre><code>{"bin":[{"binId":"0","binDetails":[{"productCode":"AU192","qty":"4"},{"productCode":"NE823","qty":"8"}],"comments":"store pickup"},{"binId":"1","binDetails":[{"productCode":"AF634","qty":"2"}],"comments":""},{"binId":"2","binDetails":[{"productCode":"QB187","qty":"3"}],"comments":"international shipping"},{"binId":"3","binDetails":[{"productCode":"AF634","qty":"2"},{"productCode":"QB187","qty":"2"}],"comments":""}]} </code></pre> <p>This is the code in my java servlet:</p> <pre><code>StringBuffer strBuffer = new StringBuffer(); String line = null; try { BufferedReader reader = request.getReader(); while((line = reader.readLine()) != null){ strBuffer.append(line); } } catch (Exception e) { } try { JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(new JSONTokener(strBuffer.toString())); // I call a method here and pass jsonObj } catch (Exception e) { } </code></pre> <p>In the method to which I pass jsonObj I am using jsonObj.length() to find out how many items are in jsonObj and it tells me 1, which in this case I would have expected 3. I even tried this:</p> <pre><code>JSONObject bins = jsonObj.get("bin"); bins.length(); </code></pre> <p>which told me jsonObj.get("bin") was not a JSONObject. Is my data formatted incorrectly before I pass it from my .jsp or am I using the JSONObject in my java servlet incorrectly? How do I access the values in the JSONObject?</p>

Querying!
