Hello World - Downloaded RabbitMQ Java Client, don't know where to copy JAR files

[Jeremy Hummel]

I've downloaded the RabbitMQ Java Client, but I'm not sure where to copy the JAR files. I'm using Eclipse, and it seems no matter where I copy the JARs, I still get the error "the import com.rabbitmq cannot be resolved". Am I missing a step, how do I resolve this error?

It needs to be on your Java classpath. This question is not really RabbitMQ-specific.

Tutorial 1 covers how this is done on the command line:

it should be quite straightforward in Eclipse and other IDEs as well.
