Post JSON Array to a webservice in android

Question

I am posting JSON Array to a webservice but i am unable to solve it. In the below code "str" is the JSONArray converted to string. JSONArray consists of JSONObjects and each JSONObject consists of 3 paramaters (ID,Question,Answer).

        ArrayList<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("feedbackjson", str));
        try
        {
            HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://172.16.10.64:8080/plugleadservices/rest/feedbackmanagement/feedbacknew");
            httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
            HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
            DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
            HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
            //is = entity.getContent();

            result = EntityUtils.toString(entity).toString();


        } catch (Exception e) 
        {   
            Log.e("Loading Runnable Error in http connection  :", e.toString());
        }


        try 
        {
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            String line = null;
            while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) 
            {
                sb.append(line + "\n");
            }
            is.close();
            result = sb.toString();
        }
        catch (Exception e) 
        {   
            Log.e("Loading Runnable Error converting result :", e.toString());
        }


        JSONObject json_data = new JSONObject(result);
        System.out.println("#### Status Message : " +json_data.getString("statusMessage").toString());
        System.out.println("#### Company ID : " +json_data.getInt("company_id"));

this is the error what i am getting

Answer 1

try this code:

List<NameValuePair> params1 = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
        params1.add(new BasicNameValuePair("dev_id", ID));
        params1.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Question", question));
        params1.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Answer", ans));
        cd = new ConnectionDetector(context);
        isInternetPresent = cd.isConnectingToInternet();
        if (isInternetPresent) {
            @SuppressWarnings("unused")
            JSONObject json = jsonParser.makeHttpRequest(url, "POST",
                    params1);

        } 

Answer 2

org.json.JSONException: End of input at character 0 of

First no need to append \n char at end of every line when reading json String. just use :

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) 
 {
    sb.append(line);
 }

And second important mistake is parsing String as JSONObject, JSON string contains JSONArray as root item instead of JSONObject, so convert result to JSONArray.change:

JSONObject json_data = new JSONObject(result);

to

JSONArray json_data = new JSONArray(result);
