Represent JSON Array into String

Question

I am trying to make a JSON array into the String, but it is giving me error, like delete this token everytime. Is there anything wrong I am doing?

private String jString = "{
    \"geodata\": [
        {
                \"id\": \"1\",
                \"name\": \"Jenifer Hathway\",
                \"email\": \"[email protected]\",
                \"address\": \"xx-xx-xxxx,x - street, x - country\",
                \"gender\" : \"female\",
                \"latitude\" : \"37.33774833333334\",
                \"longitude\" : \"-121.88670166666667\",
                \"phone\": {
                    \"mobile\": \"+91 0000000000\",
                    \"home\": \"00 000000\",
                    \"office\": \"00 000000\"
                }
        },
        {
                \"id\": \"2\",
                \"name\": \"Johnny Depp\",
                \"email\": \"[email protected]\",
                \"address\": \"xx-xx-xxxx,x - street, x - country\",
                \"gender\" : \"male\",
                \"latitude\" : \"37.336453\",
                \"longitude\" : \"-121.884985\",
                \"phone\": {
                    \"mobile\": \"+91 0000000000\",
                    \"home\": \"00 000000\",
                    \"office\": \"00 000000\"
                }
        }

    ]
}";

I think you have a typo in this line: \"name\": Jenifer Hathway\", I think you want: \"name\": \"Jenifer Hathway\", — OnResolve

After making that changes, I have edited the question, still it is giving me delete token error. Something I am missing again.. — AKIWEB

I've take your string, removed the escape character and pasted into this [jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/] JSON validator which returns back valid. Maybe try posting the error verbatim — OnResolve

I'm guessing you have this String inside a class. but if you don't, it will give you that error. — La bla bla

Java doesn't support multiline strings.

private String jString = "{"
+ "    \"geodata\": ["
+ "        {"
+ "                \"id\": \"1\","
+ "                \"name\": \"Jenifer Hathway\","
+ "                \"email\": \"[email protected]\","
+ "                \"address\": \"xx-xx-xxxx,x - street, x - country\","
+ "                \"gender\" : \"female\","
+ "                \"latitude\" : \"37.33774833333334\","
+ "                \"longitude\" : \"-121.88670166666667\","
+ "                \"phone\": {"
+ "                    \"mobile\": \"+91 0000000000\","
+ "                    \"home\": \"00 000000\","
+ "                    \"office\": \"00 000000\""
+ "                }"
+ "        },"
+ "        {"
+ "                \"id\": \"2\","
+ "                \"name\": \"Johnny Depp\","
+ "                \"email\": \"[email protected]\","
+ "                \"address\": \"xx-xx-xxxx,x - street, x - country\","
+ "                \"gender\" : \"male\","
+ "                \"latitude\" : \"37.336453\","
+ "                \"longitude\" : \"-121.884985\","
+ "                \"phone\": {"

+ "                    \"home\": \"00 000000\","
+ "                    \"office\": \"00 000000\""
+ "                }"
+ "        }"
+ "    ]"
+ "}";

You have another typo on this line

\"home\": \"00 000000",

should be

\"home\": \"00 000000\",

I would also try escaping all the lines as suggested by others
