Importing external .java files on a java project in eclipse?

Thread Starter 
Hey guys,

My teacher gave us a project and we're only required to hand in one class file. He also gave us a folder (not a project) of .java data structures and interfaces (BST, lists... Stuff like that).

We get to choose which data structure we use for the project, but I'm having trouble importing the data structure (LBST) I would like to use.

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Do you have the project already in a folder in the directory of your workspace then it is a matter of copying in the .java files and what not into the folder and refreshing the project in Eclipse. If the Project is already in Eclipse then it is a matter of just copying them in and refreshing the project in Eclipse.

If you don't have a project created with Eclipse. I would suggest taking the raw .java files and first creating a Java Project with Eclipse IDE on whatever version of Java you need either 1.6 or 1.7, and then create the default structure. Afterwards, go into your workspace and copy the .java files into the src package directory. Then open up the eclipse project or refresh eclipse. Then fix the errors, which are non-declared package statement etc...

If you are just creating a default package directory you don't need to declare package but if you use non-default packages or you have different packages then you need to declare like src is the default package directory and under that if you have say datastructure1 it would be package src.datastructure1;... etc...

The reason why you need to create a project and then copy in the .java files is first you don't have the .classpath or the .project file at the top of the project file directory. If you are just given the .java files and nothing else.
