Answer 1

As the article says you need to add the simple-json library to your project:

http://code.google.com/p/json-simple/

Answer 2

For this we have to add Class org.json.JSONObject which available in json-20131018.jar. We need to download this jar and add this jar to your buildpath.

for it in netbeans right click 'libraries' in the project list, then click add jar/folder.

Answer 3

Download jar from here : https://code.google.com/archive/p/json-simple/downloads And then add it to your "libraries" in netbeans.

Added this answer, because other answer didn't provide the above link, which is the easiest to download jar from.
