I use JRE system Library [jre7]
and when I import org.jdesktop.application.Action
I get
The import org.jdesktop cannot be resolved
I removed the build path by Build Path > remove from build path
and then I did
project > properties > java build path > add Library > JRE system Library
and still same error .
The org.jdesktop
code is not part of Java SE, so the classes won't be in the JRE. You need to locate and download a JAR file containing the classes, and then add it to your Eclipse buildpath.
(One place to download the JAR is here ... but it is easy to do your own searching if this link breaks. Go to Maven Central or findjar.)
If anyone is interested, I had to download 3 JARs:
- appframework-1.0.3.jar (link in previous post) wich contains
org.jdesktop.application
classes,
- swing-layout-1.0.3.jar link wich contains
org.jdesktop.layout
classes,
- swing-worker-1.1.jar link wich contains
org.jdesktop.swingworker
classes, required by the others jar
Just download the corresponding jar file from here . And you are good to go.
Add the jar to your build path.
