java.lang.reflect.Type mapType = new TypeToken<Map<String, Object>>(){}.getType();
Gson gson = new Gson();
Map<String, Object> categoryicons = gson.fromJson(json, mapType );

JsonTools库非常完整。它可以在Github上找到。

如果你需要没有任何依赖的纯Java，你可以使用Java 8中内置的Nashorn API。在Java 11中已弃用。

这对我来说很管用:

...
import javax.script.ScriptEngine;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineManager;
import javax.script.ScriptException;
...

public class JsonUtils {

    public static Map parseJSON(String json) throws ScriptException {
        ScriptEngineManager sem = new ScriptEngineManager();
        ScriptEngine engine = sem.getEngineByName("javascript");

        String script = "Java.asJSONCompatible(" + json + ")";

        Object result = engine.eval(script);

        return (Map) result;
    }
}

示例使用

JSON:

{
    "data":[
        {"id":1,"username":"bruce"},
        {"id":2,"username":"clark"},
        {"id":3,"username":"diana"}
    ]
}

代码:

...
import jdk.nashorn.internal.runtime.JSONListAdapter;
...

public static List<String> getUsernamesFromJson(Map json) {
    List<String> result = new LinkedList<>();

    JSONListAdapter data = (JSONListAdapter) json.get("data");

    for(Object obj : data) {
        Map map = (Map) obj;
        result.add((String) map.get("username"));
    }

    return result;
}

这种方式就像地图一样…

JSONObject fieldsJson = new JSONObject(json);
String value = fieldsJson.getString(key);

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.jettison</groupId>
    <artifactId>jettison</artifactId>
    <version>1.1</version>
</dependency>

另一个选择是json-simple，可以在Maven Central中找到:

(JSONObject)JSONValue.parse(someString); //JSONObject is actually a Map.

工件是24kbytes，没有其他运行时依赖项。

java库可以将json字符串转换为哈希映射。我是这个项目的维护者。

代码示例:

import com.github.underscore.U;
import java.util.*;

public class Main {

    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String json = "{"
            + "    \"data\" :"
            + "    {"
            + "        \"field1\" : \"value1\","
            + "        \"field2\" : \"value2\""
            + "    }"
            + "}";

       Map<String, Object> data = (Map) U.get((Map<String, Object>) U.fromJson(json), "data");
       System.out.println(data);

       // {field1=value1, field2=value2}
    }
}
