EDIT: the null pointer was due to a badly formed json.
Hi,
I'm trying to deserialize json data to an ArrayList of Restaurant object as follows (inpsired by what I found in https://sites.google.com/site/gson/gson-user-guide#TOC-Collections-Examples):
Type listType = new TypeToken<ArrayList<Restaurant>>() {}.getType();
ArrayList<Restaurant> objList = gson.fromJson( r, listType ); //(line 141)
but this gives the error shown at the end of the post.
It seems that there is some null pointer in listType... Here's a watch of listType:
"listType"= ImplForType (id=830061042288)
args= ListOfTypes (id=830061040752)
list= null
resolvedTypes= Type[1] (id=830061042800)
loader= PathClassLoader (id=830060323064)
ownerType0= null
ownerTypeRes= null
rawType= Class (java.util.ArrayList) (id=830002592616)
rawTypeName= "java.util.ArrayList" (id=830061042328)
What's wrong with my code? How can I do that?
Thanks
