The App Engine documentation is old, that is the problem. There are newer releases of the API:

• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.3
• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.4
• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.5
• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.6
• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/3.7
• http://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.2

Try the one that suits your IDE.
