Gson Java reserved keyword

Question

I have some JSON that I am deserializing using Gson.

{
"resp": {
"posts": [
  {
    ...
    "public": true,
    ...
  }] 
}

My problem is that public is a Java keyword, so how would I make a field in my class that correlates with the public field in the JSON?

Answer 1

You could use a different name for your field, using gson's Field Naming Support.

public class Post {
    @SerializedName("public")
    private boolean isPublic;
    ...
}
