Parsing JSONObject having dynamic key

Question

I have following JSON as response from my server. At first, I thought, it was invalid JSON but after validating it, it seems to be correct:

JOSN: {
    \"cat         


        

Answer 1

But how do I parse the JSON I have here?

if keys inside category JSONObject is dynamic then use JSONObject.keys() to get Iterator for getting values as:

JSONObject mainJSONObj=new JSONObject();
// get category JSONObject from mainJSONObj
JSONObject categoryJSONObj=mainJSONObj.getJSONObject("category");

// get all keys from categoryJSONObj

Iterator iterator = categoryJSONObj.keys();
  while (iterator.hasNext()) {
    String key = iterator.next();
    Log.i("TAG","key:"+key +"--Value::"+categoryJSONObj.optString(key);
  }
