How do I extract value from Json

Use a JSON parser. There are plenty of JSON parsers written in Java.

http://www.json.org/

Look under the Java section and find one you like.


Pasting my code here, this should help. It shows the package which can be used.

import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;

public class extractingJSON {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        String jsonStr = "{\"name\":\"SK\",\"arr\":{\"a\":\"1\",\"b\":\"2\"}}";
        JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(jsonStr);
        String name = jsonObj.getString("name");
        System.out.println(name);

        String first = jsonObj.getJSONObject("arr").getString("a");
        System.out.println(first);

    }

}

see this code what i am used in my application

String data="{'foo':'bar','coolness':2.0, 'altitude':39000, 'pilot':{'firstName':'Buzz','lastName':'Aldrin'}, 'mission':'apollo 11'}";

I retrieved like this

JSONObject json = (JSONObject) JSONSerializer.toJSON(data);        
    double coolness = json.getDouble( "coolness" );
    int altitude = json.getInt( "altitude" );
    JSONObject pilot = json.getJSONObject("pilot");
    String firstName = pilot.getString("firstName");
    String lastName = pilot.getString("lastName");

    System.out.println( "Coolness: " + coolness );
    System.out.println( "Altitude: " + altitude );
    System.out.println( "Pilot: " + lastName );
