I’m trying to make my Java applications integrate better with Mac OSX, and I have made it so that the menu will go to top of the screen. However, I am trying to manage the Quit and About menu items in the premade Application menu, using the following page: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/JavaLP/JavaToMac2/

However, when I try to make a class extends Application in Eclipse (On my Windows computer) I receive an error and the only option is to create the class, no imports available. Anybody know why?

Thanks in advance

    The class Application is only available on Mac OS X, so you cannot extend from it on Windows. Have a look at OSXAdapter which shows a way to integrate the functionality using Reflection only and thus working on Mac OS X and at least compiling on other systems.
