HttpServletRequest cannot be resolved while i am trying to do my first program in Struts

I just started writing a basic program for structs, i did installed tomcat and set the CATALINA_HOME to - C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-7.0.41

and set the path variable to - %CATALINA_HOME%\bin;

i have all the jar file of structs in my build path.

But when i try to write Action class with execute method and HttpServletResponce, HttpServletRequest as its parameters i am getting an error saying HttpServletRequest cannot be resolved to a type.

I did added the project to server by right click on server and going with add or remove option.

Do i need to do anything else to over come this error..

Please Advice, any guidance/Help is really appreciated.

Thanks, Tom

javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest is contained within the file servlet-api.jar which is located in apache-tomcat\lib which can be copied to the classpath

Aside: Build managers are a much cleaner way of managing such dependencies, for example
