Parsing JSON maps / dictionaries with Gson?

Question

I need to parse a JSON Response that looks like:

{\"key1\": \"value1\", 
 \"key2\": \"value2\", 
 \"key3\": 
    {\"childKey1\": \"childValue1\", 
     \"childKe

As far as I remember you should create separate class for each json object. Try something like this:

class Key { 
    @SerializedName("childKey1")
    private String mchildKey1;

    @SerializedName("childKey2")
    private String mchildKey2;

    @SerializedName("childKey3")
    private String mchildKey3;
}

class Egg { 
    @SerializedName("key1")
    private String mKey1;

    @SerializedName("key2")
    private String mKey2;

    @SerializedName("key3")
    private Key mKey3;
}

If this is not what you expected you can write your own serialize/deserialize adapter.
