I get the feeling that the answer might be a duplicate of this: Jackson - Json to POJO With Multiple Entries but I think that potentially the question is different enough. Also
final InputStream in = new FileInputStream("json.json");
try {
for (Iterator it = new ObjectMapper().readValues(
new JsonFactory().createJsonParser(in), Map.class); it.hasNext();)
System.out.println(it.next());
}
finally { in.close();} }
