Entity cannot be resolved to a type

Question

I'm trying to do a simple app with Spring. I installed the plugin spring (Spring Tool Suite (STS)) for eclipse. I added Maven dependencies in the file pom.xml but did not load the jar files. I can not import the @Entity @Id in my class Produit and I do not know where is my problem.

im getting this error:

Entity cannot be resolved to a type.

cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'dependency'.

Answer 1

You will need to import javax.persistence.Entity and javax.persistence.Id. I believe their jar is also included in

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.hibernate/hibernate-core -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
    <version>5.2.2.Final</version>
</dependency>
