Java JSON package importing failure

java, json, package

Solution

steps to follow:

Download javax.json jar file.

As you have downloaded this jar file, specify it in java compiler classpath, using javac `-classpath` key.

As you have your code compiled, then use `-cp` key for `java` command to specify this jar file in the runtime classpath upon your code execution.

Problem

I'm working with OpenJDK 7 (openjdk-7-jdk) under Ubuntu, compiling my code with following command ``` javac -d ./classes ./src/Program.java ``` My code contains imports ``` ... import java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService; import javax.json.Json; import javax.json.stream.JsonParser; import javax.swing.text.html.parser.ParserDelegator; ... ``` and i'm getting the following error ``` ./src/Program.java:21: error: package javax.json does not exist import javax.json.Json; ^ ./src/Program.java:22: error: package javax.json.stream does not exist import javax.json.stream.JsonParser; ^ ``` It is curious that there is no problems with importing from javax.swing or java.util. Please tell, what am i doing wrong?
