Answer 1

Parse these JSON to Collection of Objects and use comparator to sort it using your preferred field.

• Use GSON to parse it to collection of objects

Example:

import com.google.gson.Gson;

class Person {
  private int age;
  private String name;
}

String json = "{'age':22,'name':'Jigar'}";
Gson gson = new Gson();
TestJsonFromObject obj = gson.fromJson(json, Person.class);  

If you want to create JSON from Object.

Person p = new Person();
p.setName("Jigar");
p.setAge(22);
String jsonStr = new com.google.gson.Gson().toJson(obj);
