Eclipse project error

[bhanu]

Hi,

I am new to java and EclipseIDE. I imported the project to eclipse.
After importing I did refresh,clean,build everything. Still project shows as error.
But actually it does not contain any error. But an error symbol is existing.
But in problem's console it is missing some jar file. But I checked the jar file
everything is there. Not only that I am able to run the application without asking any error. Could you please help me why it is showing the error symbol in project?

Thanks

What happened when you compile and run the project? Is it working fine?

[bhanu]

Yes,it is compiling and running fine. But the problem is just showing the symbol of the error. But there are no errors in the the project.

Hello Bhanu,
I think the error is not in the java file which gave you got the output. May be the compilation error is in some other java file in the same project or package.

Check in Navigator view or problems view that will help you out....

Hi Niveditha,
there are no errors in the java file. but in problems view it is saying some jar file is missing. But those jar files are already there. Not only that I can run the application without any error. That is what I surprised why it is showing like that? The errors are showing in the package explorer view, but in navigator view it is not showing any error. I am using eclipse3.3 europa version.

Thanks
Bhanu

Quite similar thing happened in NetBeans if I used an inner class with same name in two classes in a same package. Search there is such a thing can be found. Actually it not caused any issue with the application in NetBeans(I'm not a Eclipse user).

Eclipse Europa is same as other eclipse versions atleast for compilations errors...

Its good if the error is shown in Package Explorer trace back to which package, which java file, which method and then which line...
Then solve the error...

The probable reason why you are not getting any error while launching is because you may not be calling that class during application launch, Do a proper testing of your whole application it will definitely fail at some point.
