HTTPCLIENT in Java - "does not exist" when importing

[busillis]

I am trying to import:

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.param.HttpMethodParams;

 

but netbeans states that it doesn't exist.

 

I have added the external JARS to the libraries folder within Projects:

• apache-mime4j0.6.jar
  
• commons-codec-1.3.jar
  
• commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
  
• httpclient-4.0.1.jar
  
• httpcore-4.0.1.jar
  
• httpmime-4.0.1.jar
  

 

But still no luck.  I have also tried this in Eclipse but I get "cannot be resolved".  I must be doing something fundamentally wrong, but I cannot figure it out. :-(
