display single array json data in android?

Question

i am trying to display json data in an android application but i have having difficulty i think is may have to do with the way the json file was formated .i want to get the value of name and code in the headers array. and it is not working

this is the json file

 {
"status": "SUCCESS",
"headers": 
{
"id": "4",
"name": "GLO",
"code": "GLO",
"background_color_code": "15B709",
"text_color_code": "ffffff",
"statusMessage": "Hi +234805, an ACCESS FEE of N20.00 will be charged in order to access this Platform"
},
"statusMessage": "Movies Loaded successfully",
"caption": "Discover"
}

this is the java code

 protected ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> doInBackground(Void... arg0) {

            ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> categoryList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
            jParser = new JSONParser();

            JSONObject json = jParser.getJSONFromUrl(URL_CATEGORY);

            try {
                  JSONObject categories =json.getJSONObject("headers");

                   String state = categories.getString("name");
                    String status = categories.getString("code");

                    HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
                    map.put(TAG_PIC, state);
                    map.put(TAG_NOTE, status);
                    categoryList.add(map);


            }catch (Throwable e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            return categoryList;
        }

this is the error

Answer 1

You can try with

try {
    JSONObject reader = new JSONObject(Your_URL);
    JSONArray jsonArray = reader.getJSONArray("headers");

    for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
        JSONObject e = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
        String name= e.getString("name");
    }
} catch (JSONException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
