In my configuration, only a few (5) packages showed errors (with empty classpath). Make sure your source path is set to 'src/java', not to 'src' only (which is Eclipses default 'guess'). Otherwise Eclipse gets confused about the package names. > Three ways around this: > > * Modify your project definition to include all the libraries > required.. Then eclipse will compile it all, with no errors... :) It took me 10 min. to download all required jars. This is probably much less effort than trying to force Eclipse to work in another style, especially as you need to do this only once. > * Don't include the java source tree as a source path, then it won't > bother compiling it.

All relevant options are on the 'Window->Preferences, Java->Editor, Annotations' page. Of course, you can also just close the 'Problems' window if you don't like it. Then the errors are shown 'only' in the package tree and in the left-hand ruler of the editor. > BTW, if you're not running Eclipse 3.0 M4, I highly recommend going to it.
