Android JSON parsing from google-shopping-api error

سؤال
I decided I wanted to try using the Google shopping API out last week, but I had no idea how to parse JCON objects.
After much searching here I was able to get the product information for an item! However, I cannot narrow down to just a string in the product. So for example I want to just get the title of a product.
I have the following:
jsonString:
{
"kind": "shopping#products",
"etag": "\"GKsxsRlaBDslDpMe-MT1O7wqUDE/dMvQ5Pu2C806fWZJbNJ0GjdesJs\"",
"id": "tag:google.com,2010:shopping/products",
"selfLink": "https://www.googleapis.com/shopping/search/v1/public/products?country=US&restrictBy=gtin:051500240908&startIndex=1&maxResults=25",
"totalItems": 3,
"startIndex": 1,
"itemsPerPage": 25,
"currentItemCount": 3,
"items": [
{
"kind": "shopping#product",
"id": "tag:google.com,2010:shopping/products/7585088/9884865157760252836",
"selfLink": "https://www.googleapis.com/shopping/search/v1/public/products/7585088/gid/9884865157760252836",
"product": {
"googleId": "9884865157760252836",
"author": {
"name": "Southeastern Delivery",
"accountId": "7585088"
},
"creationTime": "2011-07-25T00:15:58.000Z",
"modificationTime": "2012-02-11T09:29:00.000Z",
"country": "US",
"language": "en",
"title": "Jif Peanut Butter, Creamy",
"description": "Jif Creamy Peanut Butter. Fresh Roasted Peanut Taste. Look for the flavor seal. Contains no preservatives. No refrigeration required.",
"link": "http://www.southeasterndelivery.com/Jif_Peanut_Butter_00051500240908/",
"brand": "Jif Peanut Butter",
"condition": "new",
"gtin": "00051500240908",
"gtins": [

I have the following code in my android app to parse it:
try {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(jsonString);
JSONArray itemsArray = jsonObject.getJSONArray("items");
JSONObject productObject = itemsArray.getJSONObject(0);
//String productTitle = productObject.getString("title");
//tv.setText(productTitle);
tv.setText(productObject.toString());
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
tv.setText("JSONOBJECT Error: " + e);
e.printStackTrace();
}
setContentView(tv);
The TextView on my Android app will now display (obviously not indented I did that for easy reading):
"product": {
"googleId": "9884865157760252836",
"author": {
"name": "Southeastern Delivery",
"accountId": "7585088"
},
"creationTime": "2011-07-25T00:15:58.000Z",
"modificationTime": "2012-02-11T09:29:00.000Z",
"country": "US",
"language": "en",
"title": "Jif Peanut Butter, Creamy",
"description": "Jif Creamy Peanut Butter. Fresh Roasted Peanut Taste. Look for the flavor seal. Contains no preservatives. No refrigeration required.",
"link": "http://www.southeasterndelivery.com/Jif_Peanut_Butter_00051500240908/",
"brand": "Jif Peanut Butter",
"condition": "new",
"gtin": "00051500240908",
"gtins": [
"00051500240908"
],
"inventories": [
{
"channel": "online",
"availability": "inStock",
"price": 15.64,
"shipping": 1.56,
"currency": "USD"
}
],
"images": [
{
"link": "http://www.southeasterndelivery.com/images/ProductImages/00051500240908.jpg"
}
]
}
Now if you notice in my Java code I have two lines commented out. If I uncomment those lines and then comment the line:
tv.setText(productObject.toString());
tv gets set to this error: "JSONOBJECT Error: org.json.JSONEception: No value for title". I am not sure why this is true because clearly their is a title in the productObject.
Any help would be great!

You are missing a level of information in your code. The JSON array contains items, which contains products, which have a title.
Your code should look like:
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(jsonString);
JSONArray itemsArray = jsonObject.getJSONArray("items");
JSONObject itemObject = itemsArray.getJSONObject(0);
JSONObject productObject = itemObject.getJSONObject("product");
String productTitle = productObject.getString("title");

I'm using json-smart in my project. It is very small and very fast. To convert your JSON from Sting to the actual object use JSONObjet json = (JSONObject)JSONValue.parse(rawString);
When you have JSONObject you treat it just like a Map. So String title = (String) json.get("title")
