Hello,
I started making a brand new servlet/jsp web app in eclipse for my server which is using tomcat 7.0.10. I have 1 class, only one class, and no other class exists in this project. When I try to import this class into my JSP page, I get the error shown here:
http://www.bdbeasley.com/bdbeasley_ROOT/
Now, what I noticed is that even though I build my project, eclipse does not put my class files in WEB-INF/lib. So, I have to do it myself. If I don't put the class in there, then I get an error saying that tomcat can't find the classes, but if I put the classes into WEB-INF/lib and upload manually, I get an error that says tomcat thinks the class is a package! I know, its bizarre right? Why would it think my class is a package!
So obviously something here is screwy, but i don't know what... so uhhh... golden brownies to the fella who figures this one out.
header.jsp
<%@page import = "java.lang.Integer" %>
<%@page import = "manager.PageManager" %>
<%
int iPageNumber = ((Integer) request.getAttribute("pageNumber")).intValue();
iPageNumber--;

Standalone .class files are supposed to go into the WEB-INF/classes
folder. WEB-INF/lib is meant to contain jar files. You might want to
pursue this further, if needed, in the eclipse.webtools group.
