Question

I am trying to accomplish a currency converter app for android and I’m using Google Currency Converter to do it by sending an URL with this form :

http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?q="amount""from currency code"=?"to currency code"

Example :-

http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?q=10USD=?EGP

and the out put for the Example will be :

{lhs: "10 U.S. dollars",rhs: "59.701849 Egyptian pounds",error: "",icc: true}

and what I want to do is to show in the TextView (which will show the final result for the user) only this :-

59.701849 Egyptian pounds

so any ideas will be helpful and thanks for your help in advance…

Answer 1

That’s a JSON string. Use the JSONObject class http://developer.android.com/reference/org/json/JSONObject.html

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(outputString);
String rhs = obj.getString("rhs");
