public String name;
public String type;

}

public class JavaToJson{


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub      
RootFields root = new RootFields();
List<Fields> F2 = new ArrayList<Fields>();
Fields F1 = new Fields();
Fields Fields1 = new Fields();
Fields Fields2 = new Fields();
root.type = "record";
root.name = "Doc";
root.doc = "adoc";
F1.name = "id";
F1.type = "string";
Fields1.name = "user_friends_count";
Fields1.type = "int";

Gson gson = builder.create();

root.F2.add(F1);
System.out.println(gson.toJson(root));

    }

}

You have not declared F2 as a field in RootFields. Though from what I understand, you should use either a List or an array, not several fields for each instance of Fields.
