    By the screenshot it looks like you are importing servlet spec v2.5. The servlet annotations were added in servlet spec 3.0

    http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/annotation/package-summary.html

    You will want to get the jar for a newer version then what you are currently using

    Here is a chart showing the Tomcat version and the servlet spec it supports
