How to get array of objects with gson/retrofit? -

i have used gson before automatically convert pojo's.

but im trying use retrofit convert api result objects.

as long json has named arrays of objects no problem:

e.g.:

{     items:[         {"name":"foo"},         {"name":"bar"}     ] } 

---

public class anitem {     string name; }  public class myitems {     list<anitem> items; }  public interface myapi {     @get("/itemlist")     call<myitems> loaditems(); }  public boolean onoptionsitemselected(menuitem item) {     retrofit retrofit = new retrofit.builder()             .baseurl("https://someurl.com/api")             .addconverterfactory(gsonconverterfactory.create())             .build();     myapi myapi = retrofit.create(myapi.class);     call<myapi> call = myapi.loaditems();     call.enqueue(this);     return true; }  @override public void onresponse(response<myitems> response, retrofit retrofit) {     arrayadapter<anitem> adapter = (arrayadapter<anitem>) getlistadapter();     adapter.clear();     adapter.addall(response.body().items); } 

this automatically work.

but how if json array isn't named?

e.g.:

[     {"name":"foo"},     {"name":"bar"} ] 

i know how when not using retrofit parsejson , iterate on array objects cant because part automated retrofit , gson.

ive been stuck on problem time , pointers appreciated..

update:

below parts have changed myitems list<anitem>:    public class alltemplatesretroactivity extends listactivity implements callback<list<anitem>> {  protected void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate) {      super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);     requestwindowfeature(window.feature_indeterminate_progress);     requestwindowfeature(window.feature_progress);     arrayadapter<anitem> arrayadapter =             new arrayadapter<anitem>(this,                     android.r.layout.simple_list_item_1,                     android.r.id.text1,                     new arraylist<anitem>());     setlistadapter(arrayadapter); }  @override public boolean onoptionsitemselected(menuitem item) {     retrofit retrofit = new retrofit.builder()         .baseurl("https://someurl.com/api")         .addconverterfactory(gsonconverterfactory.create())         .build();      myapi myapi = retrofit.create(myapi.class);      call<list<anitem>> call = myapi.loaditems();     call.enqueue(this);     return true; }  @override public void onresponse(response<list<anitem>> response, retrofit retrofit) {     arrayadapter<anitem> adapter = (arrayadapter<anitem>) getlistadapter();     adapter.clear();     log.i("##mylog###", "## response:"+ response.message());     adapter.addall(response.body()); } 

to handle json response this:

[     {"name":"foo"},     {"name":"bar"} ] 

use call< list < anitem>>

in retrofit2, httpurl.resolve() used resolve baseurl , annotated path.

due how works,

this works:

.baseurl("http://someurl.com")  @get("/api/itemlist")    --> resolved http://someurl.com/api/itemlist 

or works

.baseurl("http://someurl.com/api/")  @get("itemlist")    --->  resolved http://someurl.com/api/itemlist 

however, not work

.baseurl("http://someurl.com/api")   @get("/itemlist")   ---> resolved http://someurl.com/itemlist
