Eclipse The import org.hibernate cannot be resolved

Question

I'm quite new to Android SDK. I'm trying to use Hibernate/Criteria but it gives an error.

I have installed Hibernate following these steps.

Help -> Install New Software
Click on Add. Location: http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/
Inside JBoss Web and Java EE Development folder, select Hibernate Tools
Click on Next

I can see that Hibernate has been installed in Eclipse but why the error keeps showing?

import org.hibernate.Criteria;
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();

error

        double latitude = myLocation.getLatitude();

        // Get longitude of the current location
        double longitude = myLocation.getLongitude();

        // Create a LatLng object for the current location
        LatLng latLng = new LatLng(latitude, longitude);      

        // Show the current location in Google Map        
        googleMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));

        // Zoom in the Google Map
        googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(20));
        googleMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(latitude, longitude)).title("You are here!"));
    }

You need to add Hibernate Jar to your project classpath or to your eclipse library list.

Also, by adding Help-> Install New Software you are adding Hibernate plugin for eclipse and not adding Hibernate lib to your eclipse project.

Here are some links for adding jars to eclipse project or classpath:
