Question

I write app for Android such gets data from server in JSON format. Now I get this value in string, but in my application it must look like:

Route:

1)first point
2)secon point
3).....
n) n point

I read that in Android in textView I can do it if string will be with html tags but I think it is not the best variant. After Android I must do it in iPhone now I don't know how to do that there. Send Routes as Array is not good variant too. Can you say what is the best way to decide this problem?

Hi, You mean that all your points are in the same String ? like value :"firstpoint,second point , third point" ? — HoodVinci, Sep 18 '13 at 08:45

I couldn't comment b/c of rep, sorry. Could you provide an example of returned JSON string. I think JSON format can be parsed with ease.

If this the case you can parse it in a loop (or another way. I'm not that good at it)

String[] parseIt (String JSON){
    String[] list=JSON.split("\\d\\)");
    String[] rlist=new String[list.length-1];
    for(int i=0;i<list.length-1;i++){
        rlist[i]=list[i+1].trim();
    }
    return rlist;
}

This might do trick. But you should edit result. I didn't test yet

Edit: I edited code. It simply return the address now with leading whitespace. You can get rid off them using. String trim() method like;

list[1].trim();

Do it in loop and don't care about first element (index 0).

Edit 2: Now it should work

As I said, you need to edit entries before done anything. I didn't test it b/c I don'T have a time then. I'll look at it now. – mgokgoz Sep 18 '13 at 10:36

Have a look here you will have to find the good pattern .

Hence you have separated strings just use a list View with an ArrayAdapter.

I am not so good with regex but i think it should like : [1-9][0-9]) [[a-f][0-9]]+
