Answer 1

This thread is pretty old, but I stumbled upon the same problem an hour ago and found the correct solution. You have to check for the type of JsonValue and if its a JsonString, you can parse it to JsonString and call its getString() method.

if(val.getValueType().equals(JsonValue.ValueType.STRING)) {
  c.setValue(((JsonString) val).getString());
} else {
  c.setValue(val.toString());
}

Answer 2

quotes in arrays depends on which JOSN Lib are using:

org.codehaus.jettison.json.JSONArray or org.json.JSONArray

Answer 3

String mailMessage = JSONObject.toJSONString("JsonObject").replace("\"", " ").trim();

Answer 4

What worked for me is

defect.get("FormattedID").toString().substring(1,defect.get("FormattedID").toString().length()-1)

Answer 5

you can use the below to get string without double quotes

    JsonObject childJSONObject = new JsonObject(); 
   JSONValue testValue = childJSONObject.get("name").getAsString();

this gives the string without double quotes " " in the string

Answer 6

just

s.replaceAll("\"", "");

removes all " characters in your string.

or in your case

testValue.toString().replaceAll("\"", "");
