            }
        ]
}
}

The above json data is from server and how to read the json array in that .

My model class for reading json data are

public class SpinnerRootObject {
    @SerializedName("DS")
    SpinnerMenuItems ds;
    public SpinnerMenuItems getDs() {
        return ds;
    }

    public void setDs(SpinnerMenuItems ds) {
        this.ds = ds;
    }
}

public class SpinnerMenuItems 
{
    @SerializedName("LST")
    ListZero zeroList;
    @SerializedName("LST1")
    String firstList;

    public  ListZero getZeroList() {
        return zeroList;
    }

    public void setZeroList( ListZero zeroList) {
        this.zeroList = zeroList;
    }

    public String getFirstList() {
        return firstList;
    }

    public void setFirstList(String firstList) {
        this.firstList = firstList;
    }
}

public class ListZero {

    @SerializedName("IPH")
    String images;
    @SerializedName("OID")
    String oid;
    @SerializedName("OPE")
    String ope;
    @SerializedName("OCD")
    String ocd;
    @SerializedName("MIL")
    String mil;
    @SerializedName("MXL")
    String mxl;

    public String getMxl() {
        return mxl;
    }

    public void setMxl(String mxl) {
        this.mxl = mxl;
    }

    public String getMil() {
        return mil;
    }

    public void setMil(String mil) {
        this.mil = mil;
    }

    public String getOcd() {
        return ocd;
    }

    public void setOcd(String ocd) {
        this.ocd = ocd;
    }

    public String getOpe() {
        return ope;
    }

    public void setOpe(String ope) {
        this.ope = ope;
    }

    public String getOid() {
        return oid;
    }

    public void setOid(String oid) {
        this.oid = oid;
    }

    public String getImages() {
        return images;
    }

    public void setImages(String images) {
        this.images = images;
    }
}

The above code are model class for reading json.

The code used for reading the json from server is

Gson gson = new Gson();
                    SpinnerRootObject spinnerRootObject = gson.fromJson(result.getResult(), SpinnerRootObject.class);
                    settingDropDown((List<SpinnerRootObject>) spinnerRootObject);

While using the above method the exception is occurred Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was BEGIN_ARRAY at line 1 column 15 path . i don't know how to read the json array in given json data

I need to pass the json arraylist data into the custom adapter

 public void settingDropDown( List<SpinnerRootObject> selectedNetwork)
 {
     customAdapter = new Fragment_DTH_Main_Spinner_Adapter
           (getActivity(),R.layout.fragment_dth_main_spinner_items,R.id.serviceName,selectedNetwork);
     selectMenu.setAdapter(customAdapter);
 }

Please help me how to get the json array from the json object

You never told us what you want to do with the JSON data, but I would recommend just using simpleJSON. — Tim Biegeleisen, Aug 16 '17 at 11:31

Some of data are in integer , so need to change this class

 public class ListZero {

    @SerializedName("IPH")
    String images;
    @SerializedName("OID")
    int oid;      // do this integer
    @SerializedName("OPE")
    String ope;
    @SerializedName("OCD")
    String ocd;
    @SerializedName("MIL")
    int mil;  // do this integer
    @SerializedName("MXL")
    int mxl;  // do this integer

    //getter setter ... do modify getter and setter of oid,mil and mxl accordingly..
    }
