How to parse JSON boolean value?

I have a JSON object

JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();


I'm able to populate the object successfully but, when I try to parse a boolean JSON value I get an error:

boolean

08-28 15:06:15.809: E/Buffer Error(31857): Error converting result
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to
java.lang.Boolean

I do it like this:

boolean multipleContacts = (Boolean) jsonObject.get("MultipleContacts");


My JSON object graph is very simple, the boolean is stored in my database as BIT field (0 or 1)

How do I solve this ?

Here is my JSON:


"ACCOUNT_EXIST": 1,
"MultipleContacts": 0

A boolean is not an integer; 1 and 0 are not boolean values in Java. You'll need to convert them explicitly:

1

0

boolean multipleContacts = (1 == jsonObject.getInt("MultipleContacts"));


or serialize the ints as booleans from the start.

0 !=

Try this:


"ACCOUNT_EXIST": true,
"MultipleContacts": false



You can cast this value to a Boolean in a very simple manner: by comparing it with integer value 1, like this:

boolean multipleContacts = new Integer(1).equals(jsonObject.get("MultipleContacts"))


If it is a String, you could do this:

boolean multipleContacts = "1".equals(jsonObject.get("MultipleContacts"))


JSONObject#getInt()

Try this:


"ACCOUNT_EXIST": true,
"MultipleContacts": false


boolean success ((Boolean) jsonObject.get("ACCOUNT_EXIST")).booleanValue()
