Question

I'm in an introductory CS class and Dr.Java has really limited functionality compared to Eclipse. How can I add the ACM.jar file for use in Eclipse?

Look at the following video tutorial, which is about ACM. At the first few minutes, it talks about adding it to eclipse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoyGznP8Ehk

Or else

Copy it to the project directory. Right click on the jar - select build path, and click add to build path.

You can now import classes from the jar in your classes.

do I have to do that for every project I make? – ahtmatrix Oct 04 '12 at 19:51
@abacusasian The way I mentioned, yes. You can also add libraries to all projects by going to windows -> preferences -> Java -> Build Path. User Libraries is what you want.
