Txs Ian, your solution works but now I am running into another problem. In 
the result string all quotes are lost!

In my earlier post, I only included a very small porting of the cmd-line. 
In practice this cmd line looks more like this:
curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X 
POST --data 
'{"value":{"id":null,"ofd":null,"name":"VSKkD","count":4981,"flag":false}'

after running your code, println(postDate) gives:
'{value:{id:null,ofd:null,name:VSKkD,count:4981,flag:false}'

Any idea how to extract the origial json string ?
