I am using a httprequest to get Json from a web into a string.

It is probably quite simple, but I cannot seem to convert this string to a javax.json.JsonObject.

How can I do this?

Answer

JsonReader jsonReader = Json.createReader(new StringReader("{}"));
JsonObject object = jsonReader.readObject();
jsonReader.close();
