Re: [JBuilder] Multiple packages per JAR

[Nick Collier]

I'm not sure if I'm understanding you, but I can import multiple
packages using JBuilder3. For example, I work with the COLT library, and
colt.jar contains a variety of packages: cern.colt.*, jal.*,
edu.cornell.lassp.houle.*, among others. All these are visible to
JBuilder3 once I've imported the libraries into JBuilder.
