Fetching JSON object from Servlet Java
- by ChrisA
I want to create an application that will fetch a JSON object from a servlet to deserialize it, and then use its variables to do other things.
My servlet has the following code in the doPost:
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
ObjectOutputStream os;
os = new ObjectOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
String s = new String("A String");
Gson gson = new Gson();
String gsonObject= gson.toJson(s);
os.writeObject(gsonObject);
os.close();
}
Now, while the servlet is running, I can access it via a browser, if I post same code in the doGet method, that would download a servlet file, which is not what I want.
What should I use in my second application that would connect to the servlet, fetch the object, so that I can manipulate it later?
Thanks in advance.
