And Here is my code, But I have write the dependence and set the jar in eclipse

    @GET
    @Path("/{status}/status")
    @Consumes("application/json")
    @Produces("application/json")
    public JSONObject checkRefno(@PathParam("status") String status) {
        String ref_no = null;
        JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
         JSONArray array=new JSONArray();
        try {
            String conUrl = "the url cannot show to others"
            Class.forName("net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver");
            Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(conUrl);
            String sql = "SELECT orderid FROM dbo.abc WHERE status = ?";
            PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement(sql);
            ps.setString(1, status);
            ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
            if (rs.next()) {
                ref_no = rs.getString("ref_no");
            }
             array.put(ref_no);
             json.put("orderid", array);
            ps.close();
            con.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return json;
    }

How should I do? And I find some answer that should go to the Deployment Assembly to set jar but my eclipse cannot find this setting,Anyone can help me, Thanks!

While deploying a java dynamic web project, jars files should be set for build path and also same jar files should be added to lib folder of WEB-INF directory.

class path is set using buildpath option:

add the copy of jar files into lib folder:
