Converting json String to UTF-8

问题:

I'm parsing data from web in json in gujarati language but when i receive it at android application it looks like

{"message":"Authorized","u_status":0,"c_Alert":0,"get_data":[{"id":"29","End":"2015-02-19","EntrTime":"2015-02-26","Content":"ભરતીનું સ્થળ - સાબર સ્પોર્ટ્સ સ્ટેડિયમ , હિં&","Begin":"2015-03-10","Header":"લશ્કરી ભરતી મેળો - હિંમતનગર","link":"http:\/\/www.google.com"}],"c_Alert_Msg":"No Message","u_link":"http:\/\/www.google.com","c_Alert_Finish":0,"success":1}

when i set any filtered text from json string it looks like

&#274 4;&#276 5;&#272 5;&#273 9;

(i putted space because it shows perfect unicode in html code) but actually it is

"સ્થળ"

I know thats encoding problem but how did i convert that strings to proper unicode characters

I'm using following code for http request to get json

            try {
                DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
                DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
                HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url_for_is);
                httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
                HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
                String result = EntityUtils.toString(httpResponse.getEntity());
                JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(result);
               Log.d("JSON 123123",obj.toString());

            } catch (JSONException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

I also tried getting string from json and converting perticular string to unicode but no effect

by this

  JSONObject c = contenTs.getJSONObject(1);
  String headN = c.getString("Header");

  Charset chrutf = Charset.forName("UTF-8");
  final String b = new String(headN.getBytes(),chrutf);
  System.out.println(b);

or tell me the way that i can convert characters like '&#274 4;&#276 5;&#272 5;&#273 9;' to unicode string

It's really bad that my post given negative reputation because they don't know the answer but i found the solution myself

I simply converted text to html content in code and displayed it using

String contentN = json.getJSONArray("get_data").getJSONObject(i).getString("c_Alert_Msg");
Html.fromHtml(contentN))

full code

 contenTs = json.getJSONArray("get_data");
 itemList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();

 for (int i = 0; i < contenTs.length(); i++) {
            JSONObject c = contenTs.getJSONObject(i);

            // Storing each json item in variable
            String id = c.getString("id");
            String headN = c.getString("Header");
            String contentN = c.getString("Content");
            String time_s = c.getString("Begin");
            String time_e = c.getString("End");
            String linkIn = c.getString("link");

            HashMap map = new HashMap<String, Spannable>();
            String txtHeadN = "<font color=#cc0029><strong>" + String.valueOf(i + 1) + " - " + headN + "</font>";
            map.put("head", Html.fromHtml(txtHeadN));
            map.put("content",Html.fromHtml(contentN));
            map.put("Link", time_s + "  to  " + time_e);
            map.put("links",linkIn);
            // adding HashList to ArrayList
            itemList.add(map);
  }

And it worked perfectly fine

回答2:

EDIT: Maybe like this:

httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params, HTTP.UTF_8));

Or, have you tried encoding your entity using library Gson ?

You can include it like this in your build.gradle (Module: app):

dependencies {
    compile group: 'com.google.code.gson', name: 'gson', version: '2.8.2'
}

and then use this part of code:

httpPost.setEntity(new StringEntity(new Gson().toJson(params), HTTP.UTF_8)));

Hope it helps.

Try this: String jsonText = EntityUtils.toString(entity, HTTP.UTF_8);
