Sling Model usage for property of type string Array in AEM 6.3

[cquser1]

Hi,

Suppose, I have a pathbrowser within multifield. For instance I select two paths in dialog, which is stored in backend as {"pagePath":"/content/test1"}, {"pagePath":"/content/test2"}. I want to retrieve the jcr: title of these two pages. How do I go about doing this.

If I were to use, WCMUsePOJO's/activate method, I would have done something like

ValueMap properties = getProperties();

if (properties.containsKey("multifieldPropertystoredincrx")) {

String[] paths= properties.get("multifieldPropertystoredincrx", String[].class);

for (int i = 0; (null != paths) && (i < paths.length); i++) {

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(paths[i]);

if (obj.has("pagePath")) {

String productPath = obj.getString("pagePath"));

and so on.

But with SlingModel, I am not getting how to go about this. Any thoughts on this will be really helpful.

Hi zeeshank15007365,

Thanks a lot for sharing this link across.

In AEM 6.3, JSONObject is deprecated and as a result , cannot proceed with the same.

Any link/pointers on how to achieve this without JSONObject api, would be helpful.

Use some other API.. jackson and gson can be used here. I believe both are available with AEM 6.3
