Volley Get and Post JSONObject Request code example

Example 1: jsonObjectRequest = new JsonObjectRequest( Request.Method.GET, url, ecplain

JsonObjectRequest req = new JsonObjectRequest(URL, new JSONObject(params),
           new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
               @Override
               public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                   // handle response
               }
           }, new Response.ErrorListener() {
               @Override
               public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                   // handle error                        
               }
           }) {

       @Override
       public Map<String, String> getHeaders() throws AuthFailureError {
           HashMap<String, String> headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
           headers.put("CUSTOM_HEADER", "Yahoo");
           headers.put("ANOTHER_CUSTOM_HEADER", "Google");
           return headers;
       }
   };
