Simple java program to read json from text file

import java.io.IOException;

import java.io.InputStream;

import net.sf.json.JSONArray;

import net.sf.json.JSONObject;

import net.sf.json.JSONSerializer;

import org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils;

public class ClassloaderTest {

public static void main(String [] args) {

ClassLoader cl = ClassloaderTest.class.getClassLoader();

InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("json.txt");

try {

String s = IOUtils.toString( is );

JSONObject json = (JSONObject) JSONSerializer.toJSON(s);

JSONObject searchresults = json.getJSONObject("searchresults");

System.out.println("ssssssss" + searchresults.optString("count", ""));

JSONArray jarray = searchresults.getJSONArray("URI");

for(int i=0 ; i < jarray.size(); i++) {

System.out.println("jarray [" + i + "] --------" + jarray.getString(i));

}

} catch(IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

}

and content of json.txt is below

{

"searchresults": {

"URI": ["qa1", "qa2", "qa3", "qa4", "qa5"],

"count": "5"

} 

}

jason.txt you can keep in the same package where your class is.
