Sending a json object from Android is easy if you use Apache HTTP Client. Here's a code sample on how to do it. You should create a new thread for network activities so as not to lock up the UI thread.
protected void sendJson(final String email, final String pwd) {
Thread t = new Thread() {
public void run() {
Looper.prepare(); //For Preparing Message Pool for the child Thread
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(client.getParams(), 10000); //Timeout Limit
HttpResponse response;
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
try {
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(URL);
json.put("email", email);
json.put("password", pwd);
StringEntity se = new StringEntity( json.toString());
se.setContentType(new BasicHeader(HTTP.CONTENT_TYPE, "application/json"));
post.setEntity(se);
response = client.execute(post);
/*Checking response */
if(response!=null){
InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent(); //Get the data in the entity
}
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
createDialog("Error", "Cannot Estabilish Connection");
}
Looper.loop(); //Loop in the message queue
}
};
t.start();
}
You could also use Google Gson to send and retrieve JSON.
