Question

I got a compilation error in my project on package which belongs to Junit (in org.junit, org.junit.experimental.results, org.junit.internal, org.junit.internal.matchers, org.junit.matchers, org.junit.rules).

all this classes are under junit package in my project, meaning: Security/src/org.junit, Security/src/org.junit.experimental.results, where Security is the name of my project. My classes that I wrote are under other package that I define: Security/src/myPackage/myClass

In all these classes, it gives a complation error in the import lines, for example:

import org.hamcrest.Description cannot be resolved
import org.hamcrest.Matcher cannot be resolved;
import static org.junit.matchers.JUnitMatchers.containsString cannot be resolved;

The checks are going OK (the green/red bar is display, and gives the correct result), but this problem give me an error on all the project.

Your JUnit version needs Hamcrest. You should include it in your buildpath or use an older JUnit version.

There are different JUnit packages of the release 4.10:

• junit-4.10.jar: Includes Hamcrest, you should use this.
• junit-dep-4.10.jar: Does NOT include Hamcrest, use this if you already have a hamcrest jar in your buildpath.
