Question

I’m trying to make Microsoft Translator API in my Java application. I registered in Windows Azure market place and I registered my Microsoft Translate application so I have these ClientId and Client Secret keys but still it doesn’t work.

I can’t find what I am doing wrong.

Here is my code:

import com.memetix.mst.language.Language;
import com.memetix.mst.translate.Translate;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try{
            Translate.setClientId(/* my Client Id */);
            Translate.setClientSecret(/* my Client Secret */);

            String translatedText = Translate.execute("Bonjour le monde", Language.FRENCH, Language.ENGLISH);

            System.out.println(translatedText);
        }
        catch(Exception e) {
            System.err.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
} 

And this is the error I’m getting:

You are missing json-simple.jar on your classpath: http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=com/googlecode/json-simple/json-simple/1.1.1/json-simple-1.1.1.jar
