Import Neo4J API in Netbeans - java

For a project I am building a Java GUI from which queries can be sent to Neo4j, to make it easier to do particular analyses. To get this all working, I have downloaded a .jar folder containing all relevant classes (neo4j-javadocs-2.1.7-javadoc.jar). I have loaded the library through the project->properties->libraries->Add JAR, but I can't seem to import the classes I want to use in my GUI (neither automatically nor manually).
I am dabbling in Java, so it is probably a basic oversight that I am making, but with the help from tutorials online and trying different commands (like entering the path of the .jar file) I can't get it working. One of these tutorials is specific on the Neo4j library, so I am very confused. That tutorial is written for Eclipse, instead of NetBeans which I am working with, but as far as my knowledge goes that shouldn't matter for the commands
I don't have enough reputation to post direct images, but this link contains a screenshot. If more information is required, let me know. http://i.stack.imgur.com/lUytK.png
Additionally, when I normally add a class that is not imported, there is an automatic function to import the class. This option is missing for my specific class, so maybe I added the library in an incorrect way?

Edit: Issue resolved thanks to a colleague that came in. Apparently I loaded the Javadoc where I should have loaded to individual classes from the lib directory.

It really should work.
Try to save all changes. NetBeans reparses the classes when you save them.
Try to build your project manually from command line using Ant build script

Use Maven, Ivy or Gradle for Dependency Management then you can depend on the Neo4j artifacts.
For sending queries to the server you actually don't need Neo4j artifacts.
You can also use the JDBC driver, see http://neo4j.com/developer/java

Using Libraries In Netbeans Java With Ant

This is my first StackOverflow question, and I'm also a Grade 12 student, so apologies if it is a stupid one - feel free to let me know if it is, however, after numerous hours searching the internet, I can't find an answer to this.
this is not homework help.
Background
I am currently writing a program in Netbeans that will deal with large COVID datasets, and I'm looking to use some external libraries to make operations easier. The ones I've looked at are
https://github.com/jtablesaw/tablesaw and https://github.com/nRo/DataFrame.
However, I have only ever used "Java with Ant", and both of these GitHub's only mention using the library through Maven dependencies in the pom.xml file. I have never used Maven, and I am very unfamiliar with Build Tools in general. As when I was introduced to Java, my teacher instructed me to use Java with Ant. That being the case, any time I have used an external library before I have simply added the .jar files into my library folder and used
import foo.bar; or import foo.*; to use the libraries.
My question
Is there a way for me to use either of these libraries without switching build tools? For example, download the source and make the .jar's in a way that isn't overly tedious, so that I can use the libraries the same way I am used to? Or, perhaps something I'm missing that allows me to download them in that format? If not, seeing as almost every Github library I find instructs me to use it through Maven dependency, should I stop using Java with Ant altogether and start learning how to write programs using Maven?
Any insight is greatly appreciated. If this has already been answered, feel free to link the answer and sorry for cluttering up the forum. Thanks.
From one of the Maven websites you can download the libraries and use them as normal. First find the artifact page, for example using mvnrepository.com as shown below, or you could use the https://search.maven.org/:
Find the relevant page by searching for the artifact, then once there you can choose the version:
Then click on "View all" to see the artifact jar files:
Then lastly right-click the file you need and choose save:

Is there a way to use external libraries in IntelliJ without downloading their .jars?

I am trying to write a standalone Java application in IntelliJ using edu.stanford.nlp.trees.GrammaticalStructure. Therefore, I have imported the module:
import edu.stanford.nlp.trees.GrammaticalStructure;
Currently, Intellij doesn't recognize this and many others of the imported external libraries (cannot resolve the symbols) and is also not able to automatically download/import them.
Is there a way to use the GrammaticalStructure class without having to download the entire Stanford CoreNLP .jar and adding it to the project as a library? This question applies to other dependencies as well, since I want to use other external libraries but avoid including their .jar files as much as possible (to minimize the size of the final application, given that it will be standalone). Unfortunately, all the solutions I have found proposed exactly that.
Apologies if I have overlooked some basic setting or setup steps, it has been a while since I have worked with Java.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
If you want to use it means you want to execute the code in them. How is the runtime supposed to execute code that is does not have? How is the compiler supposed to know how the code is defined (e.g. what the classes look like)? This is simply impossible. If you want to use the code you have to provide it to the compiler as well as the runtime.
If you just dont want to include all of that code into your application, you need either access to the sources and just pick the class you need or you need some kind of JAR minimizer as #CrazyCoder suggested.

Create Project Java Web without maven and Ide

I am trying to create an application for creating java web projects in a personalized, automated way, without maven, without IDE, but so far I have not seen anything on the internet that would suit me. Could someone guide me or tell me how I can do it?
I consider your question differently that you want to create an application which when run can automatically create web projects !! If that is correct you need to write set of programs which would make files necessary for your web project like generate java files, Jsp files, XML, properties etc depending on complexity of your web projects, also if customized with parameters it can make different kinds of projects. Then you will need to make war file which is going to be the final deploy-able component with these files. This is all that you would do manually through IDE and maven would be the jar files you would need if any. Let me know if you need any more help.
Please accept and like if you appreciate my gesture to help with my ideas n experience.

How to download Packages for Android Studio?

I just started Android Development yesterday and just finished with my first Activity. On running it, I'm getting errors like
**Error:(4, 37) error: package android.support.design.widget does not exist**
As I never post without it, I've already done plenty of searching on this. Basically, what I've understood is that it couldn't find that Widget Package on my PC. So, do I have to download it? If yes, then how?
People on internet had similar problem with Packages and almost every post has different answer to this. Some say change your Gradle File others say Update your Studio (have done it).
Any kind of explanation or bit of knowledge with the solution would be highly appreciated. I'm a kind of geek who want to get concepts and basics clear. So, it would be great if you include the reason and technicality behind this too with your answer. Thanks. :)
It's a design library for Android apps development and as #Dominique pointed have a look at that page and copy paste that compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0' line in your project gradle file and press the sync button. Your project will sync in a few moments and the design library will be downloaded. Now you can use this library and there won't be any errors.
No, in Java "package" is not a "library" or a "piece of software" (like it is in some other languages). Package is what classes belong to - you might think of packages as directories containing Java files (it is a simplification, but it works). In Java libraries are packaged into (usually) "jars" (those jars usually contain classes divided into packages), so what you need to download is "jar".
So, first thing you need to check is: what library contains the package, and configure your IDE accordingly. The package in question belongs, I think to the so called android support library, which you can install using the SDK tool.

Cannot find jena.db package with maven

I have a little problem with jena. I want to use https://github.com/ldodds/slug in one of my project. This application comes without dependencies so I use Maven to gather what this app needs. Maven resolved everything except one package
import com.hp.hpl.jena.db.*;
I cannot resolve it with any of jena maven respositories. Do you know where I can find it? Maybe jena.db was available in older package but I cannot find any migration guide about this package.
If you are familiar with problem or know Jena structure well, please help.
Thanks in advance.
The RDB storage layer (the package com.hp.hpl.jena.db) was removed from Jena a long time. Presumably slug works with the version of in it's lib directory.
It would be better to use TDB or generalise and use SPARQL (query and update) so it will work with an external, standard triple store (like Jena Fuseki -- there are many to choose from). It will need changes to slug.
