Parse JSON без конкретной структуры для поля с GSON

Question

Я работаю над приложением Android, используя API EmpireAvenue. API использует JSON, и я использую библиотеку GSON для анализа данных из API. Вот проблема:

У меня есть структура JSON как это:

{ 
    type: "earnings", 
    info: { 
     earnings: 64.09 
     dividends: 1277.34 
     gains: 1997.05 
     expenses: 4895.51 
     shares_bought: 210 
     shares_bought_user_count: 2 
     shares_sold: 0 
     shares_sold_user_count: 0 
    }, 
    created: "2011-04-16 11:32:37" 
}, 
{ 
    type: "following", 
    info: [ 
      { 
       ticker: "SOLPHE" 
       full_name: "Rodrigo Bermudez Salazar" 
       list_name: "My Recommended Buys" 
      }, 
      { 
       ticker: "SOLPHE" 
       full_name: "Rodrigo Bermudez Salazar" 
       list_name: "My Watch List" 
      } 
      ], 
    created: "2011-04-16 11:00:08" 
} 

Как вы можете видеть, структура, связанная с информационным полем отличается. Иногда это объект, иногда массив. Как и ожидалось, библиотека GSON генерирует ошибки при разборе. Вы знаете, как разбирать структуру JSON при изменении структуры поля?

Благодарим за помощь.

Текущее решение с Gson немного связано с требованием реализации пользовательского создателя экземпляра и/или настраиваемого десериализатора. Взгляните на http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/issues/detail?id=231 и the release notes on Hierarchical Type Adapters. Я только что опубликовал пример полиморфной десериализации с Gson в ответ на Polymorphism with gson.

Gson hopefully скоро будет иметь RuntimeTypeAdapter для более простой полиморфной десериализации. См. http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/issues/detail?id=231 для получения дополнительной информации.

С другой стороны, решение на основе Jackson не так уж плохо.
