Help with Java Packages

M.J.M.C

Hi

I'll keep this short, I'm currently just editing source code and i've imported it into eclipse

For an good programmer this will be simple, but my package name as you can see from this example is org.jivesoftware.launcher;

But my packages are in java.org.jivesoftware.launcher;

How do I fix this? I know it's in the build path but don't know where.



Thanks for any help.

Right click on your project in the project window, select properties, then java build path, click the tab for source and point it to the right source folder, the one above org, usually called src.

Hey jester77

Thanks for the reply, that info was already there

I think you should edit the spark/src folder to be spark/src/java in the properties window you have in your screen shot

Hope that helps...

Thanks selfdiy

Tried that and it's screwed up other things now for me

Thanks anyway.,

That looks like a maven project?

Easiest would be to close the eclipse project, close eclipse and generate the eclipse settings from terminal:

mvn eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse

Then you can open eclipse and import the project.

Hey Jester

It's actually taken from here

OK, that's an ant project.

What errors are you getting when pointing the src to src/java?

My guess is you probably need to add missing jars to the classpath, via the Java Build Path in the project properties.

Yeah that sounds like what I need to do,
Cause from my very first screenshot where it says "package" if I add in "java." before org.jivesoftware.launcher the error goes away

My problem is......ive no idea how to do what you just said. Novice

Here's my folder structure if that helps (this is how it was downloaded)


Within Src

If you don't have the jars you need, you will need to download them.

If the jars are already part of the project they can be added by,
Right click on the project in the Package explorer view,
Click properties
Select Java Build path
Click add jars
Then navigate to the jars and add the ones you need.


If you have to download jars
Right click on the project in the Package explorer view,
Click properties
Select Java Build path
Click add external jars
Then navigate to the jars and add the ones you need.


Hope that helps... Maybe an eclipse tutorial may help you with some of the fundamentals of setting it up...
