java - Foreach with JSONArray and JSONObject

Question

I'm using org.json.simple.JSONArray and org.json.simple.JSONObject. I know that these two classes JSONArray and JSONObject are incompatible, but still I want to do quite a natural thing - I want to for-each over JSONArray parsing at each iteration step one JSONObject (nested inside that JSONArray). I try to do it like so:

JSONArray arr = ...; // <-- got by some procedure
for(JSONObject o: arr){
    parse(o);
}

When I try to compile this code, indeed I get "incompatible types" error, even though it looks so natural. So, my question is what is the best way to iterate through JSONArray?

Answer 1

Seems like you can't iterate through JSONArray with a for each. You can loop through your JSONArray like this:

for (int i=0; i < arr.length(); i++) {
    arr.getJSONObject(i);
}
