jdesktop not found in eclipse with jre 1.6.0

jdesktop not found in eclipse with jre 1.6.0

The error message reads 'org.jdesktop cannot be resolved'
Why? The only mention of jdesktop (or jdic) that I could find elsewhere on the internet seem to be dating back from 2006. Adding the line 'import org.jdesktop.*" doesn't help anything either.

I am using eclipse 3.2.2 and jre 1.6.0.7

In the most recent software bundle you will find the relevant JAR that contains this library from jdesktop.org. Add it to your project and the problem will go away. Strictly this is not needed for Java 6, as the relevant library has been added to rt.jar, BUT the package name was changed so you still need the old library.

That worked on the first try. Thanks!
