Converting JSON string to a JSON object in Scala

Question

I want to convert a simple JSON string such as {\"Name\":\"abc\", \"age\":10} to the corresponding JSON object (not a custom Scala object such as \"Person\"). D

You might want to use a library like Spray JSON. It provides a lot of easy to use functionality for converting to and from JSON. If you decide to use Spray JSON you can do this:

import spray.json._
// some code here
val json = "your json string here".parseJson
