jquery - retrieve ajax posted values in servlet? -

var schedule = [];  var data = {     'user_id' : '12',     'day_of_week' : 'monday',     'when' : 'start',     'modified' : 'true'  }  schedule.push(data); var data = {     'user_id' : '13',     'day_of_week' : 'tuesday',     'when' : 'end',     'modified' : 'false'  } schedule.push(data); // schedule have 2 objects in 

i posting array servlet using jquery ajax post request below .

data :  {'mydata':schedule}, url :"./mycontroller", 

now how can array of objects , literate values? each array object has string, long , boolean type values. how can values iterating?

one strategy use json pass kind of data , forth server , client.

on client side, convert array of schedule json string using stringify function. send via ajax:

e.g.

var jsondata = json.stringify(schedule); 

your ajax object following:

$.ajax({   url: "./mycontroller",   data: {'schedules':jsondata} }); 

now on server side use json parser google's gson library.

in servlet following:

string jsondata = request.getparamater("schedules"); 

parse using gson

gson gson = new gson(); list<schedule> schedules = gson.parsejson(jsondata, list<schedule>.toclass()); 

you can create schedule class map javascript object java object

i can provide better code tested if interested ... not have access ide @ moment ... hope general idea
