<%@page import="org.json.simple.JSONObject"%>
<%
JSONObject obj=new JSONObject();
obj.put("name","foo");
obj.put("num",new Integer(100));
obj.put("balance",new Double(1000.21));
obj.put("is_vip",new Boolean(true));
obj.put("nickname",null);
out.print(obj);
out.flush();
%>

my android java code is as follows…

package com.campuspro.start;

import org.apache.http.HttpEntity;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONObject;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class JsonDemo extends Activity 
{
TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.jsonresult);
HttpClient client=new DefaultHttpClient();
String url="http://10.0.2.2:7001/f/json.jsp";

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    try{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.result_json);
    HttpGet get=new HttpGet(url);
    HttpResponse r=client.execute(get);
    int status=r.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
    if(status==200)
    {
        HttpEntity e=r.getEntity();
        String data=EntityUtils.toString(e);
        JSONArray arr=new JSONArray(data);
        JSONObject last=arr.getJSONObject(0);
        String result=last.getString("name");
        tv.setText(result);
    }

}catch(Exception e)
{

Answer 1

You have error in

TextView tv=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.jsonresult);

You should set it up after setContentView(R.layout.result_json);
