Can anyone tell me how to get a value from a json array in Android. The array has no name

Question

Json arrays in Android Java

Answer 1

Ok, firstly you can turn it into a JavaScript variable like this:

var myJson =
[
{
"title" : "messages"
}
{
"title" : "store"
}
];

Then you can start selecting, using either keys or property names.

For the first object, the key is 0. Put it in square brackets like this.

var firstObj = myJson[0];

Answer 2

JSON files are objects not arrays.

So what you are saying is that the file just begins with curly brackets like { and no other code?

Answer 3

yes inside the json object is an array, i know how to retrieve values where arrays have names but what about where the arrays have no names

Answer 4

Can you show me part of it?

Answer 5

it's like this
[
{
"title" : "messages"
}
{
"title" : "store"
}
]

Answer 6

Answer 7

Answer 8

Oops. I think it would be the same, just use String[] instead of var.

String[] myJson =
//JSON here
