View source for FAQ How do I add an extra library to my project's classpath?

Open the context menu on the project, and select '''Properties &gt; Java Build Path &gt; Libraries'''.  From here, you can add JAR files to the build path,  whether they are inside your workspace or not. You can also add  a <i>class folder</i>, a directory containing Java class files that are not in a JAR.  Note that plug-in development has more  restrictions on where build path entries can come from.  For plug-in projects, you should always let the plug-in development tools organize your build path for you. Simply select the <tt>plugin.xml</tt> file, and choose '''PDE Tools &gt; Update Classpath''' from the context menu.
