Dealing with randomly generated and inconsistent JSON field/key names using GSON

by

I’m pleased to report that with GSON 2.0 supports default maps and lists without effort. Deserialize like this:

Object o = new Gson().fromJson(json, Object.class);

The result will be a Map with String keys and either String or Map values.

Serialize that map back to JSON like this:

String json = new Gson().toJson(o);

We hope to release GSON 2.0 in October 2012. You can get it early from GSON SVN.
