The import org.apache.tools cannot be resolved

Thread view: 
John Smith - 31 May 2006 14:48 GMT
I am an Eclipse newbie who are trying to learn how to write tasks from
the following tutorial:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/index.html

example code from the tutorial:
import org.apache.tools.ant.Project;

public class HelloWorld {

   private Project project;

   public void setProject(Project proj) {
       project = proj;
   }

   public void execute() {
       String message = project.getProperty("ant.project.name");
       project.log("Here is project '" + message + "'.",
Project.MSG_INFO);
   }
}

I could not find the org.apache.tools.ant.jar package from the
http://ant.apache.org/ homepage.

How do I get around this "The import org.apache.tools cannot be
resolved" error?

ant
  +--- bin  // contains launcher scripts

  +--- lib  // contains Ant jars plus necessary dependencies

Did you check the ant/lib directory?
