Spring JSON Mapping from Android to Custom Object with jackson -

i'm trying pass jsonarray android spring java server.

i've tried 2 ways. 1 passing jsonarray string , catching @pathvariable annotation.

this way can [{"id":6,"numdishes":1,"observations":"false"},{"id":2,"numdishes":3,"observations":"false"}] , guess make work way.

the code use is:

in android

httpget request = new httpget(serverurl + action);//action has 2 params httpresponse response = httpclient.execute(target, request); 

in server arrives /orderservice/addorder/1/[{"id":6,"numdishes":1,"observations":"false"},{"id":2,"numdishes":3,"observations":"false"}]

@requestmapping(method=requestmethod.get, value="/addorder/{tablenumber}/{jsonparam}") public void addorder(@pathvariable integer tablenumber, @pathvariable string jsonparam) {     log.info("string encoded: " + jsonparam); } 

anyway i'd prefer directly. like

android

httppost request = new httppost(serverurl + action + urlencoder.encode(paramsstring, "utf-8"));  request.setheader("accept", "application/json"); request.setheader("content-type", "application/json"); httpresponse response = httpclient.execute(target, request); 

server

public class orderpojo extends arraylist<dishpojo>{}     @requestmapping(method=requestmethod.post, value="/addorderpost/{tablenumber}/{jsonparam}")     public void addorderpost(@pathvariable integer tablenumber, @requestbody orderpojo jsonparam) {         log.info("addorderpost orderpojo: " + jsonparam);     } 

also, because think part of problem, have inside spring-servlet:

<bean id="jacksonmessageconverter" class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.mappingjacksonhttpmessageconverter"/>     <bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.annotationmethodhandleradapter">         <property name="messageconverters">           <list>             <ref bean="jacksonmessageconverter"/>           </list>         </property>     </bean>       <mvc:annotation-driven/> 

am in right path? how can parse object directly custom object inside server?

here solution

    //android client. calling server     list<namevaluepair> namevaluepairs = new arraylist<namevaluepair>(1);     jsonobject jo = new jsonobject();     jo.put("x1", utilsettings.gettablenumberpreference(context));     jo.put("x2", createjsonobject());     namevaluepairs.add(new basicnamevaluepair("xxx", jo.tostring()));       stringentity en = new stringentity(namevaluepairs.get(0).getvalue());      en.setcontentencoding(new basicheader(http.content_encoding, http.utf_8));      en.setcontenttype("application/json");      request.setentity(en);      request.setheader(http.content_type, "application/json");      httpresponse response = httpclient.execute(target, request);      result = entityutils.tostring(response.getentity());      //server side     public class object1pojo{         private integer x1;         private list<dishpojo> x2;     }      public class object2pojo {         private string x1;         private string x2;         private string x3;     }      @requestmapping(method=requestmethod.post, value="/addobjectpost", consumes="application/json")     public @responsebody void addobjectpost(@requestbodyobject1pojo o1) {         log.info(o1);     }   //xml <mvc:annotation-driven>         <mvc:message-converters>             <!-- converts @responsebody string return types response body -->             <bean id="stringhttpmessageconverter" class="org.springframework.http.converter.stringhttpmessageconverter"/>              <!-- standard form encoding -->             <bean id="formhttpmessageconverter" class="org.springframework.http.converter.formhttpmessageconverter"/>                 <bean id="jacksonmessageconverter" class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.mappingjacksonhttpmessageconverter">                 <property name="supportedmediatypes" value="application/json" />             </bean>                                                                       </mvc:message-converters>     </mvc:annotation-driven>      <!-- <bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.defaultannotationhandlermapping" /> -->     <bean id="jsonviewresolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.json.mappingjacksonjsonview" />     <bean id="viewresolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.beannameviewresolver" />
