How to add Google JSON library into Eclipse?

Question

I downloaded google-gson-2.2.4-release.zip and tried to add it to Eclipse (Kepler or Juno) project (Java Project or DynamicWeb - no matter)..

but all options:

- adding jar or zip to buildpath (under /lib dir, external Jars or local, not extacted)

- checking Order&Export and clean build 

 - Java7 and Java6..

No way..(I do not use maven and I am not planning so far)

It' ridiculous...

These libs work straight away in the same project:

          org.apache.sling.commons.json-2.0.6.jar
          json-simple-1.1.1.jar

Sorry. Have you looked at my solution to set it into project class-path? — Braj, Apr 12 '14 at 20:31
What the problem are you getting? Are you getting `ClassNotFoundException` in your project? — Braj, Apr 12 '14 at 20:33
What the size of jar? Please confirm that is is not a corrupted jar. Its size should be around 186 KB. — Braj, Apr 12 '14 at 20:35

Oh my God...

in Google JSON library we have

            **JsonObject**

But in all other JSON libraries like

         org.apache.sling.commons.json-2.0.6.jar
         json-simple-1.1.1.jar
         wink-something-json.jar

We have

           **JSONObject**

So I could not found JSONObject or JSONArray in Google library..

Not at all. Please can you tell how did you find it. From where you got a hint? – Braj Apr 12 '14 at 20:41
I just went inside JAR file and check classes' names) – GML-VS Apr 12 '14 at 20:42
