How do I include .class files in my project in Eclipse? (Java)

by

You can add a directory containing the class files to the Eclipse project, only if it is inside one of your Eclipse projects, either in a generated directory or in one you have created.

This can be done by adding the class folder to the Java build path of the application. You can set this in the Project properties, by visiting Java Build Path -> Libraries -> Add Class Folder. Keep in mind, that you will have to specify the root folder containing the class files in their packages.

Therefore, if you wish to have the compiler access com.stackoverflow.Example.class present in the classes directory under project A (but not in the build path of project A), then you should add ‘classes’ as a class folder, and not classes/com/stackoverflow as a class folder.
