public class User {  

    private String username;

    private String password;  

    public String getUsername() {

        return username;

    }

    public void setUsername(String username) {

        this.username = username;

    }

    public String getPassword() {

        return password;

    }

    public void setPassword(String password) {

        this.password = password;

    }  

}

注意！！进行转换的类一定要是public类型的，否则会报如下错误：.TemplateModelException: Method public java.lang.String org.apache.commons.lang.exception.NestableRuntimeException.getMessage(int) threw an exception when invoked on net.sf.json.JSONException: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: Property 'contents' has no getter method in class 'class com.yesrj.plm2.workflow.action.WorkflowDesignAction$FlowViewNode'

1 普通JavaBean(以User为例)转成json格式 

1).转成JSONArray类型 
User user = new User(); 
user.setUsername("cxl"); 
user.setPassword("1234"); 
JSONArray json = JSONArray.fromObject(user); 
System.out.println(json);//[{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"}] 
response.getWriter().print(json.toString()); 
在js文件取数据 
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8080/jQueryDemo/servlet/UserServlet",null,function(data) { 
      alert(data[0].username); 
      alert(data[0].password); 
});

2).转成JSONObject类型 
JSONObject jsonObj = JSONObject.fromObject(user); 
System.out.println(jsonObj);//{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"} 
response.getWriter().print(jsonObj); 
在js文件取数据 
alert(data.username); 
alert(data.password);

2 List转成json格式 

List<User> users = new ArrayList<User>(); 
User user = new User(); 
user.setUsername("cxl"); 
user.setPassword("1234"); 
User u = new User(); 
u.setUsername("lhl"); 
u.setPassword("1234"); 
users.add(user); 
users.add(u);

1).转成JSONArray类型 
JSONArray json = JSONArray.fromObject(users); 
System.out.println(json.toString()); 
//[{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"},{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}] 
response.getWriter().print(json.toString()); 
js中取数据：alert(alert(data[0].username));

2).转成JSONObject类型 
不可直接使用JSONObject jsonObj = JSONObject.fromObject(users); 
可通过下列方式 
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(); 
jsonObj.put("users", users); 
jsonObj.put("u", u); 
System.out.println(jsonObj); 
{"users":[{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"},{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}], 
  "u":{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}} 
response.getWriter().print(jsonObj); 
js中取数据：alert(data.users[0].username); 
           alert(data.u[0].username);

3.Map转成json格式 

Map<String,Object> map = new HashMap<String,Object>(); 
map.put("users", users); 
map.put("u", u); 
1).转成JSONArray类型 
JSONArray json = JSONArray.fromObject(map); 
System.out.println(json.toString());// 
[{"users":[{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"},{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}],"u":{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}}] 
response.getWriter().print(json.toString); 
js中取数据：alert(data[0].users[0].username);

2).转成JSONObject类型 
JSONObject json = JSONObject.fromObject(map); 
System.out.println(json);// 
{"user":[{"password":"1234","username":"cxl"},{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}],"u":{"password":"1234","username":"lhl"}} 
response.getWriter().print(json); 
js中取数据：alert(data.user[0].username);
