part of an import statement not resolved [message #50838] Mon, 11 April 2005 23:29

This situation manifests as an import statement that is only underlined
half-way. For example the line:

import formatter.common.Parser;

In one of my projects, this line has "formatter" underlined in red, and
when I "hover" over the word "formatter", the error message says "the
import 'formatter' cannot be resolved". As a side note, the code compiles
without an actual error showing up in the "Problems" panel. This only
shows up in the actual source code editing window. I have also noticed
that in this case, the package "formatter" will not show up in the
"packages" panel. I have only seen this error happen when the package has
no .java files in it. I haven't found anything in the known bugs for
Eclipse that says it cannot handle empty packages.

This may or may not help, but I have a very long classpathentry in my
classpath file. The reason for this is that there are a lot of files in
my team's source tree that caused Eclipse to run out of memory the first
time we tried to compile everything in one project. Our solution was to
edit the .classpath files of the individual projects, so that each
application's project would only try to compile the source code it needed
for that application. As a result the .classpath file has lines like this:

<classpathentry
including=" /formatter/common/Parser.java|/communications/BasicKeyValue. java|/communications/GenericCommHandler.java|/communications /GenericCommHandlerKeyValue.java|formatter/ADisplay/ADisplay Driver.java "
kind="src" path="source"/>

If you need more elaboration on this let me know.
