To fix the error "cannot open include file: 'json/json.h' no such file or directory", you need to add Include directory to your project as following:

-Right click on your project -> Properties. Under C/C++ ->General ->Additional Include Directories, add C:\your-directory-to-jsoncpp-master\include (e.g. C:\user1\jsoncpp-master\include).
