Java – Eclipse: The resource is not on the build path of a Java project

buildpatheclipsejava

I have been given a source folder (src) of a Java Project. I have created a .project file, kept it inside that folder and imported that project into Eclipse 3.6 through the Import Existing Projects into Workspace Option and added the required jars to it.

Now the problem is that when ever I do a Call Hierarchy on a Project, it displays an alert box saying
"The resource is not on the build path of a java project"

Could somebody please let me know how to resolve this?

Please see the image here:

Thanks

You can add the src folder to build path by:

Select Java perspective.
Right click on src folder.
Select Build Path > Use a source folder.

And you are done. Hope this help.

EDIT: Refer to the Eclipse documentation

Java – What are the differences between a HashMap and a Hashtable in Java

There are several differences between HashMap and Hashtable in Java:

Hashtable is synchronized, whereas HashMap is not. This makes HashMap better for non-threaded applications, as unsynchronized Objects typically perform better than synchronized ones.
Hashtable does not allow null keys or values. HashMap allows one null key and any number of null values.
One of HashMap's subclasses is LinkedHashMap, so in the event that you'd want predictable iteration order (which is insertion order by default), you could easily swap out the HashMap for a LinkedHashMap. This wouldn't be as easy if you were using Hashtable.

Since synchronization is not an issue for you, I'd recommend HashMap. If synchronization becomes an issue, you may also look at ConcurrentHashMap.

The official tutorial may be of some use to you.

	Class	Package	Subclass (same pkg)	Subclass (diff pkg)	World
`public`	+	+	+	+	+
`protected`	+	+	+	+
no modifier	+	+	+
`private`	+

+ : accessible
blank : not accessible
