Adding this to what? What JVM version are you targeting? What build environment are you using? Have you tried this? <http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/msg/9b707988630265cd> > if i could find it by googling i think i would have already as > i tried for a bit. You should still try. Without knowing what you found or tried, it's hard to suggest a way forward. For Java 5, download swing-worker-src-1.2.zip from <https://swingworker.dev.java.net/>. $ unzip swing-worker-src-1.2.zip Archive: swing-worker-src-1.2.zip creating: ... Then run the demo outlined in the SwingWorker API: <http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/SwingWorker.html> $ ant demo Buildfile: build.xml init: [mkdir] Created dir: ... compile: [javac] Compiling 3 source files to ... demo: [javac] Compiling 1 source file to ... BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 10 seconds Use ` ant -p` to see other build targets. SwingWorker is included in Java 6 and later. -- John B.

This is a little on the dumb side. Do you know what the Java API is? It's the stuff that comes with both the JRE (runtime) and the JDK (development kit). If you see it in Sun's basic documentation, then you already have it. Therefore, exactly what problem are you having? As always please provide an SSCCE.

As always please > provide an SSCCE. okay, to answer all of your questions at once: i am trying to run this code exactly: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/concurrency/FlipperProject/src/concurrency/Flipper.java when i run it using the launch button here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/concurrency/interim.html it runs perfectly. when i bring it into net beans (i am running verison 6.8: http://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html i am using the bundle with all possible technologies). i am running Java JDK 1.5 now, when i download and unzip this file it is all present in my download file (running on a mac). if i bring this code into my netbeans developer i get the following error: import javax.swing.SwingWorker; //line with error error: cannot find symbol symbol: class swing worker location: package javax.swing i am assuming this is because my netbeans is not acknowledging the file. and i agree, i haven't bridged this in any way. i agree it is obvious i am not too sure what i am talking about. i am honestly trying here, and if there is anything i can do to help you help me try and be patient. thanks in advance.
