Expecting object found: "anyType"

My code:

Data: response.toString()

"anyType{
CollectionCategory=anyType{CategoryId=531aca3d-7710-427f-8592-3591d0f37bf5; 
Description=Category1; Name=Category1; }; 
CollectionCategory=anyType{CategoryId=b9b3cd04-bc7c-40bc-af5c-42b63f2b5784;

}"

Class Definition:
public class CollectionCategory {
    public UUID CategoryId;
    public String Name;
    public String Description;
}

Thanks, it's from Microsoft WCF Service.

Anyone hit same issue? 
Is there a workaround for this issue?

Use a different library. GSON only parses JSON.
