Question

Hi I have the following class and need to convert the incoming Json using Gson

public class JsonConverter<T>{

private boolean success = Boolean.TRUE;
private List<T> data;
private int total;
private String message;

public JsonConverter(){

}

public JsonConverter(List<T> data, int count){
    this.data = data;
    this.total = count;
} //getters and setters

I have an incoming Json with a data property that contains the values of some a class which has the following definition:

class A {private long calendarId;
private String title;
private String description;
private int colorId;
private boolean isHidden;
private long userId; //getter and setter

}

Example:
Json string:

{“data”:{“calendarId”:”ext-gen223″,”title”:”work”,”description”:”work”,”isHidden”:false,”colorId”:”2″}}

I want to get the value from Json String and set it inside the List data (which should be a list of Class A objects) of Class JsonConverter using Gson.

Thanks

Used Type type = new TypeToken<JsonConverter<A>>(){}.getType(); and got it running!
