OpenTypeSelectionDialog cannot be resolved to a type

Why do I get this error "OpenTypeSelectionDialog cannot be resolved to a type" when I am trying to use OpenTypeSelectionDialog in my code?

Here's the code:

 Shell sParent = JavaPlugin.getActiveWorkbenchShell();
 SelectionDialog dialog = new OpenTypeSelectionDialog(sParent, true,
          PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getProgressService(),null, IJavaSearchConstants.TYPE);

you should open your plugin.xml file in your project, dependencies tab and add org.eclipse.jdt.ui as plugin dependency, after that organize imports and you should be OK.

You get this error when compiler is not able to find file/class containing code for specified Java class. There are a number of places where Types can be included, 1. Have you imported the Type for which you are getting error. 2. You also might have specified the wrong place (by a misspelling, perhaps) 3. You might want to check if library containing missing Type is not included in classpath.

Check if you are able to locate the class file?
