I have a JSONObject of:
{
"page": 1,
"total_results": 380716,
"total_pages": 19036,
"results": [
{
"vote_count": 136,
"id": 335983,
"video": false,
"vote_average": 6.4,
"title": "Venom",
"popularity": 324.891,
"poster_path": "/2uNW4WbgBXL25BAbXGLnLqX71Sw.jpg",
"original_language": "en",
"original_title": "Venom",
"genre_ids": [
27,
878,
28,
53
],
"backdrop_path": "/VuukZLgaCrho2Ar8Scl9HtV3yD.jpg",
"adult": false,
"overview": "When Eddie Brock acquires the powers of a symbiote, he will have to release his alter-ego “Venom” to save his life.",
"release_date": "2018-10-03"
},
I'm puzzled as to why I'm not getting anything from the code below:
List<Movie> movies = new ArrayList<>();
JSONObject results = new JSONObject(jsonData);
JSONArray array = new JSONArray(results.getJSONArray("results"));
JSONObject test = array.getJSONObject(0);
Log.d(TAG, test.getString("title"));
I assume I'm getting the JSONObject, then getting the JSONArray "results" and then the JSONObject at index 0, then getting the key "title".
Thanks!

5,437 PointsI can't test my answer right now, but I'm pretty sure you don't need to reconstruct the JSONArray returned from getJSONArray. So
JSONArray array = new JSONArray(results.getJSONArray("results"));
should just be
JSONArray array = results.getJSONArray("results");
