now that GameRegistry#findBlock() is deprecated what is the best way to get a block by its modid and name?  

 

 public static void addStructure(String file) {
        JSONParser parser = new JSONParser();
        try {
            Object json = parser.parse(new FileReader(file));
            JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) json;
            String name = (String) jsonObject.get("Name");
            String village = (String) jsonObject.get("Village");
            Map<Integer,Block> legend = new HashMap<Integer,Block>();
            JSONArray Legend = (JSONArray) jsonObject.get("Legend");
            //Iterator<String> iterator = Legend.iterator();
            int i = 1;
            Legend.forEach( (a)-> {
                String b;
                b = a.toString();
                String[] bl = b.split(":");
                //legend.put(i);
                String modid = bl[0];
                String block = bl[1];
                System.out.println(block + modid);
                Block bk = GameRegistry.findBlock(modid, block);
                System.out.println(bk);
                //i =+ 1;
            });
            System.out.println("Loading Structure: " + name);
            //worldObject newWorldObject = new worldObject(name, village,);
        }catch (Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Block.getBlockFromName("minecraft:dirt");

Thanks that work.
