using methods from user library in multiple packages(Java,Eclipse)

I create a new user library named reference and I add a JAR file called stdlib to this library. Then I creat two classes. Class A with main method is in the default package. Class B is in other package. It's OK to use methods in reference library in Class A. For example, StdOut.println(); However, the program cannot recognize it when I use it in Class B, which is in another package.

Then I built a new class C in the default package. the reference library works fine in Class C. Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my program? Why can't I use methods from reference library in Class B, which is not in the default package? Thx!

I suspect you're just missing an import:

import foo.bar.ClassB;

where foo.bar is the package containing ClassB.

(As an aside, I'd strongly advise against using the default package in your own code.)
