I used to work in Eclipse Luna for Java programming, but then switched to netbeans. I want to swithc back to Eclipse, but now only Neon is available. When I try to import a project to the Neon Java EE IDE, (same as when I used Luna) either nothing loads, or everything that was in the folder loads with tons of errors, like "String cannot be resolved to a type". I have a decent amount of experience using netbeans, but have not used Eclipse in a very long time, and did not really know what I was doing when I used to use it.
The problems the IDE describes are as follows:
Description: The project was not built since its build path is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for java.lang.Object. Fix the build path then try building this project project name Unknown Java Problem
and ...
Description Resource Path Location Type The type java.lang.Object cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files ClientProxy.java /filepath/Main line 1 Java Problem where no main class even exists.
Thanks in advance
Right click on project -> Build Path -> Configure Build path and check if JRE library is in the build path.
