How can I map responseEntity to custom class in java

Question

I have a service returns a list of something like this as responseEntity

{
    00080005={vr=CS, Value=[ISO_IR 100]},
    00080054={vr=AE, Value=[DCM4CHEE]}, 
    00080056={vr=CS, Value=[ONLINE]}
}

How can I create a custom class mapping this, and is this way better or using responseEntity ?

-- note that I have an error when using responseEnttiy said

Can not deserialize instance of javax.json.Json out of START_ARRAY token

Answer 1

your service return as JSON formatted ?

i have similar condition when develop some project...but i'm not quite sure your service return is a json formatted..

i've use Jackson for mapper and Gson Library for jsonobject. every request i map to entity using jackson.

JsonObject gson         =   new Gson().fromJson(stringJson, JsonObject.class);

//--YA--Menggunakan ObjectMapper untuk convert string json ke entity
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Token token         = new Token();

//--YA-- setting jackson untuk bypass error jika terdapat body yg tidak bisa di map 
mapper.configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false); 
//--YA-- setting jackson untuk abaikan case sensitive
mapper.configure(MapperFeature.ACCEPT_CASE_INSENSITIVE_PROPERTIES, true); 

token   = mapper.readValue(gson.toString(), Token.class);
