How can I configure my Eclipse installation to use classes from Apache Commons IO?
I want to use this code:
IOUtil.write(encoded, new FileOutputStream(new File("target-file.txt")))
But it gives the error:
IOUtil cannot be resolved

Do you use any build tool, i. e. Ant or Maven or Ivy? They can help you with dependency management.lutz– lutz2009-11-20 11:33:03 +00:00Commented Nov 20, 2009 at 11:33

What you need to do is this:

You also can use build tools eclipse plugins like m2eclipse or IAM (formerly Q4e).
IAM can be be installed following those instructions, and ha s a great dependency viewer
Differences between m2eclipse and IAM are discussed here, there and here.
Q4E is event-oriented, I believe that m2e uses the console and stdin/out.
A bigger one is that m2eclipse forks and uses an external maven (for running maven goals) while
iam/q4eonly uses the embedder.
Our position here is that it is the way to go, allowing deep integration and better performance.
It certainly has allowed us to quickly do things like the dependency analysis view and some other "magic" in the maven incremental builder.

Download Apache .jar files and add them to library through your IDE (Eclipse).
