I get this error message in Eclipse:

Access restriction: The type DirectoryWalker is not accessible
due to restriction on required library 
/Library/Java/Extensions/commons-io-1.4.jar

what does this mean? There’s this other SO question on the same topic but it doesn’t seem to apply in this case. I’m not creating a new java class, I’m trying to use one.

    At a guess another library you are using also requires Apache Commons I/O, but a different version. Having a piece of code (transitively) have access to two versions of the same packages is a little tricky. You can probably arrange it so your code and the other library use the same version. It’s all much easier with CLASSPATH! 🙂
