How to parse JSON response (different object types) with GSON

Question

Problem: parse the following response from Foursquare Venues API:

{
    meta: {
        code: 200
    }
    notifications: [
    {
        type: \"notificationTr         


        

Answer 1

This is correct because the object you are trying to access is not an array, you should do something like this:

JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
JsonObject data = parser.parse(response).getAsJsonObject();
Meta meta = gson.fromJson(data.get("meta"), Meta.class);
Response myResponse = gson.fromJson(data.get("response"), Response.class);

Or you can create an object containing 3 classes for the 3 objects and then parse everything through GSON.
