Hi

I have been away from java for quite a long time, and certainly away
from Eclipse.
I have two applications, one of which uses the other. The problem here
is that i am trying to import classes from app2 into app1, but its not
able to find them.

How do i get around this? I know that it has to do something with the
build path. I am using Eclipse.

Thanks

Sahil Dave

Read about packages and classpaths in the tutorial on java.sun.com.

Right click on app2 > Build Path > Configure Build Path > Order and
Export. The source folders defining those classes need ticks in their
tickyboxes - that means they're exported to other projects.

If they do have ticks, ask again and i'll see what i can think of.

Did you see the bit where he says "I am using Eclipse"? It's on the last
line of the second paragraph.

Did you read the thread wherein people discuss that knowing the
underlying concepts is essential to effective use of an IDE?

I believe you even participated in that thread, as you may recall.
