weird format for get list of organizations

[marti1125]

GitHub gh = GitHub.connect("login", "token");
System.out.println(gh.getMyOrganizations());

How to I can parse this? =/

{mozillaperu=GHOrganization@29ba4338[login=mozillaperu,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/mozillaperu,id=1221419], qillu=GHOrganization@57d5872c[login=qillu,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/qillu,id=16871604], eknowit=GHOrganization@667a738[login=eknowit,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/eknowit,id=1102009], VulpesTools=GHOrganization@36f0f1be[login=VulpesTools,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/VulpesTools,id=8617634], GenerationOpen=GHOrganization@157632c9[login=GenerationOpen,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/GenerationOpen,id=4251591], mozillahispano=GHOrganization@6ee12bac[login=mozillahispano,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/mozillahispano,id=1511160], mozilla-appmaker=GHOrganization@55040f2f[login=mozilla-appmaker,location=,blog=,email=,name=,company=,followers=0,following=0,url=https://api.github.com/orgs/mozilla-appmaker,id=5852021]}

In most cases, the toString of object shouldn't be used for parsing.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Object.html#toString()

Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the toString method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.

Emphasis mine.

Indeed, toString() is for debug assistance only.

@kohsuke I don't expected this answer. I would like to how to parse that data?

[Shredder121]

@marti1125 Rule of thumb, if a class has a valueOf(String) method, its toString() method can be used for machine consumption.
GHOrganization doesn't have one, so the toString() is really only for debug assistance.

You could hack something together with regex to match all between [ and ], split on ,, then setting all fields via reflection.

I do however want to refer to the first paragraph on this site:
http://www.javapractices.com/topic/TopicAction.do?Id=55

The toString method is widely implemented. It provides a simple, convenient mechanism for debugging classes during development. It's also widely used for logging, and for passing informative error messages to Exception constructors and assertions. When used in these informal ways, the exact format of toString is not part of the contract of the method, and callers should not rely on the exact format of the returned String.

Emphasis mine.
