Importing Gson

[Michael Ortiz]

package com.google.gson;        (class, interface, or enum expected)

import com.google.gson.Gson;  (package com.google.gson does not exist.

                                                unused import)

Why is not working? I have extracted all the libraries from the online 2.2.2 download and added them to the project library that I want to use them in. 

It keeps giving me the errors listed above. Can anyone tell what I'm doing wrong? 

Thanks

You shouldn't declare your source code as being in package com.google.gson (unless you want to create patch or whatever). You don't need it and you don't want it. So remove it.

Moreover, you misplaced it. The package declaration must be the very first thing (ignoring comments) in the source file.

This might be caused by the first error. Or not.

No idea, but it doesn't seem to be related to Gson in any way. Have you had success with other libraries? What are you using? In eclipse the only thing needed is to add gson-2.2.2.jar to "Java Build Path / Libraries".
