Create JSONObject with JAVA

Question

I need to create JSONObject with JAVA. Can someone help me? JSON should look like this:

{
  "text":[
    "Java",
    "JavaC"
  ],
  "metaData":{
    "fileName":"javaLangSpec.txt",
    "fileSize":"900KB",
    "fileCreationDate":"January 23, 1996 at 12: 52PM"
  }
}

It's really simple:

 String jsonString = "{\n" +
                "  \"text\":[\n" +
                "    \"Java\",\n" +
                "    \"JavaC\"\n" +
                "  ],\n" +
                "  \"metaData\":{\n" +
                "    \"fileName\":\"javaLangSpec.txt\",\n" +
                "    \"fileSize\":\"900KB\",\n" +
                "    \"fileCreationDate\":\"January 23, 1996 at 12: 52PM\"\n" +
                "  }\n" +
                "}";

        JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(jsonString);

@StephenP The question is about `Java` not `javascript`. – giannisf Feb 23 '16 at 13:05 — giannisf, Feb 23 '16 at 13:05
