What is the right way to add json-simple library on intellij?

Question

It's been awhile since I programmed in java.

I'm trying to add json-simple on intellij but I can't figure out what is wrong ( almost moving back to eclipse)

The json-simple jar file is at the same directory of the project.

Here are some img's

thanks in advance..

would this work? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1051640/correct-way-to-add-external-jars-lib-jar-to-an-intellij-idea-project — Lynch, May 20 '17 at 15:30

That's not how you import it. First go to

File < Project Structure < Modules

Now, click on the Dependencies tab. It should look like this(Don't mind my libraries),

Click on the + icon, locate the Jar, and then click on Ok.

Thanks for you reply Chandler, but I've already did it. And it didn't work. Probably is something I'm doind wrong. Would you mind to try to add a json jar file on an example project just to check !? – May 20 '17 at 15:37
works for me @EduardoHumberto see edit. Are you sure, you're doing it correctly ? – dumbPotato21 May 20 '17 at 15:45
It should be something stupid that I'm doing.I'll do it again. Thanks for your help!! – May 20 '17 at 15:56
Chandler, you won't believe but the problem was the json jar file that I was using, thank you!! – May 20 '17 at 17:39
@EduardoHumberto no worries :) – dumbPotato21 May 20 '17 at 17:40
