JSON parse to populate listview Android Studio - json

Question

I am pulling my hair out over this. After numerous tutorials, I thought I found the perfect one (7th to be exact. But after following the tutorial, I found out that JSONparse is deprecated. Can someone please give me a solution for this. I just want to read an array from the url and populate a listview.
The array is:
{ "lotInfo":[{"lot":"A","spaces":"198","rates":"3.25"},
{"lot":"B","spaces":"165","rates":"7.50"}]}
MainActivity.Java:
package com.example.sahan.wtf;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.ListAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.SimpleAdapter;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
public class MainActivity extends ListActivity {
private Context context;
private static String url = "http://192.168.0.199/get_info.php";
private static final String lot = "lot";
private static final String spaces = "spaces";
private static final String rates = "rates";
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> jsonlist = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
ListView lv ;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
new ProgressTask(MainActivity.this).execute();
}
private class ProgressTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Boolean> {
private ProgressDialog dialog;
public ProgressTask(ListActivity activity) {
Log.i("1", "Called");
context = activity;
dialog = new ProgressDialog(context);
}
private Context context;
protected void onPreExecute() {
this.dialog.setMessage("Progress start");
this.dialog.show();
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(final Boolean success) {
if (dialog.isShowing()) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(context, jsonlist, R.layout.list_activity, new String[] { lot, spaces, rates }, new int[] { R.id.lot, R.id.spaces, R.id.rates });
setListAdapter(adapter);
lv = getListView();
}
protected Boolean doInBackground(final String... args) {
JSONParse jParser = new JSONParser();
JSONArray json = jParser.getJSONFromUrl(url);
for (int i = 0; i < json.length(); i++) {
try {
JSONObject c = json.getJSONObject(i);
String vlot = c.getString(lot);
String vspaces = c.getString(spaces);
String vrates = c.getString(rates);
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
map.put(lot, vlot);
map.put(spaces, vspaces);
map.put(rates, vrates);
jsonlist.add(map);
} catch (JSONException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return null;
}
}
}
JSONParser.Java:
package com.example.sahan.wtf;
import android.util.Log;
import org.apache.http.HttpEntity;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.StatusLine;
import org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException;
import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
public class JSONParser {
static InputStream is = null;
static JSONArray jarray = null;
static String json = "";
public JSONParser() {
}
public JSONArray getJSONFromUrl(String url) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
try {
HttpResponse response = client.execute(httpGet);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();
if (statusCode == 200) {
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream content = entity.getContent();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(content));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
builder.append(line);
}
} else {
Log.e("Error....", "Failed to download file");
}
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
jarray = new JSONArray( builder.toString());
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}
return array;
}
}
The error I get is:
Error:(74, 13) error: cannot find symbol class JSONParse

It seems that you have a typo, instead of:
JSONParse jParser = new JSONParser();
Should be:
JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser();
