Javax.servlet.*

Question

Where can I find the jar file so I can use java.servlet.* ?
I set my CLASSPATH and JAVA_HOME variables... is there anything else i need to do? When I go to compile my code it says javax.servlet cannot be resolved.
Any help would be great, thanks!

Answer 1

I put the path to the jar file in my classpath and it
still doesnt work.How did you do that? If you did it correctly, the JVM will find it. If you did it incorrectly, you'll still have the error.

import javax.servlet.*;

public class test extends HttpServlet {It looks like its importing javax.servlet.*; and the
other one just fine, What does "importing fine" look like?
Do you know what the "import" keyword is really doing for you. (Hint: It has nothing to do with loading classes.)
but it throws its first error at
HttpServlet saying that it cannot be resolved to a
type. You haven't added the JAR to the CLASSPATH properly then. More details, please. What container are you using? Tomcat? If so, you need to look for /common/lib/servlet-api.jar and get that into your CLASSPATH.
This has been holding me up all day.There's no way something like this should be holding you up for a day. Ask somebody in your area that knows Java and CLASSPATH.
