I hava a javascript object that im passing back to java via ajax:
var jsonData = {
"testJson" : "abc",
"userId" : "123"
};
When I println the map it looks like:
key: jsondata value:[object Object]
How can I properly parse the object?
You can use GSON in java:
class MyObject() {
String testJson;
String userId;
public void setTestJson(String testJson) {
this.testJson=testJson;
}
public String getTestJson() {
return testJson;
}
... Same for userId
}
And then create a GSON object:
class SomeClass {
public void parseMyJson(String json) {
Gson gson=new Gson();
MyObject mo=gson.fromJson(json,MyObject.class);
}
}
In which mo now contains you json object with just the use of getters and setters
I hope, this can help you:
int userId = object.getInt("userId");

As posted the code defines a javascript object called jsonData. This can be converted into a string ( using JSON.stringify ) before passing back to the server:
var jsonData = {
"testJson" : "abc",
"userId" : "123"
};
var jsonString = JSON.stringify( jasonData);
or alternatively in trivial cases by defining the JSON string directly:
var jsonString = `{"testJson" : "abc", "userId" : "123" }';
{ ... }jsonData. This would need to be converted into a string ( usingJSON.stringify) before passing back to the server.
