There are several options. The simplest is to put the .class file(s)
into your Eclipse project, then use the "Add Class Folder" button in
Java Build Path > Libraries.
Another option is to make a JAR and include that on the Java Build Path.

Finally, you can use the "Add Variable" button on the Libraries tab of
Java Build Path. Configure a new Variable that points to the external
location (c:\external in your case) and then select that Variable to be
included on the Java Build Path.

By the way, why not just include the source of the PropUtil.class in the
project you are working on?

HTH,
Eric
