eclipse cannot find the jar available in maven dependencies

I have a pom.xml with the following entry

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
            <version>3.1.0.RELEASE</version>
        </dependency>

And on maven install the jar is added to the maven repository and is also listed in the maven dependencies library.

But I am not able to import any of the classes from the added jar 'spring-web-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar' for the particular entry, though it shows in the classpath

The error - in eclipse "cannot be resolved to a type"

environment - maven 3.1 and Spring tool suite

Thanks

Solved - found the solution through some other forum

The jar inside the repository was corrupted.

After clearing the .m2 folder in the physical drive and repeating the maven clean install worked.

Thanks for the time @techidiot @jtravaglini.
