How to convert JSON string to Map using Jackson API?


This page shows how to convert JSON string to java map object using Jackson's data binding.

Note: Refer How to convert Java object to JSON string? page for dependent libraries.

package com.java2novice.json.examples;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper;
import org.codehaus.jackson.type.TypeReference;

public class JsonToMapEx {

	public static void main(String a[]){
		
		String jsonStr = "{\"name\":\"Nataraj\", \"job\":\"Programmer\"}";
		Map<String,String> resultMap = new HashMap<String,String>();
		ObjectMapper mapperObj = new ObjectMapper();
		
		System.out.println("Input Json: "+jsonStr);
		try {
			resultMap = mapperObj.readValue(jsonStr, 
							new TypeReference<HashMap<String,String>>(){});
			System.out.println("Output Map: "+resultMap);
		} catch (IOException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
}

Output:
Input Json: {"name":"Nataraj", "job":"Programmer"}
Output Map: {name=Nataraj, job=Programmer}

Preemptive scheduling Vs Time slicing?
Preemptive scheduling: The highest priority task executes until it enters the waiting or dead states or a higher priority task comes into existence.

Time slicing: A task executes for a predefined slice of time and then reenters the pool of ready tasks. The scheduler then determines which task should execute next, based on priority and other factors.
Famous Quotations
You can never get enough of what you don’t really need.
