Read multipile JSON objects from single file with Jackson

Question

I'm using Jackson 2.6.5 . I'm trying to read the following JSON:

{
    "metadata1":"value",
    "metadata2":"value"
}
{   
    "field1":"value",
    "field2":"value",
    ....
}

With the following code:

JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(jsonString);

But jsonObj contains only the "first" part of my JSON (the metadata), How can I read the "second" part of my JSON? (the part with the fields)?

EDIT

I know that my JSON doesn't contain "," so how can I parse it without "," between the jsons?

Answer 1

Seems like the JSON you added is missing a , sign between the two objects.

If you get such an non-json as input string, you might want to consider to:

1. First manipulate the input string by adding it the missing , . Eg find the location of }{ and replace it with },{
2. And only then to insert it to the jackson

Answer 2

1. Your json is invalid, so you can't parse invalid json scheme by json parsing tools out of the box,
2. Instead you could read file by yourself into 2 strings - one valid json per string and then parse it with any json parser.
