How to add RabbitMQ library to project? 'The import "com.rabbitmq" cannot be resolved'

Question

I am working through the RabbitMQ Java tutorial found here: https://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/tutorial-one-java.html

I have downloaded the Java Client Library package, and copied the JAR files to my project in Eclipse, but the import statements

import com.rabbitmq.client.ConnectionFactory;
import com.rabbitmq.client.Connection;
import com.rabbitmq.client.Channel;

all yield the error

The import "com.rabbitmq" cannot be resolved.

The instructions are unclear how to incorporate the JAR files from the Java Client Library package, how should I proceed?

Answer 1

You can download the rabbitmq-java-client-bin-3.5.4.zip from official link here . Then extract the rabbitmq-client.jar from the zip & add it to your class path in project. Then you will be able to resolve The import "com.rabbitmq". Give it a try.
