lwjgl 2 controller not initialized error?

I have been recently watching a tutorial on how to get controller input in lwjgl then a problem occurred so I made a new project and put in the exact code that he had letter by letter and then the same problem occurred.
The error that i am getting is that first off lwjgl is saying it cant be initialized and java is saying that there is a class not found exception?
Here is my code:

package simple;

import org.lwjgl.LWJGLException;
import org.lwjgl.input.Controller;
import org.lwjgl.input.Controllers;

public class ControllerInput {

    static Controller controller;

    public static void main(String[] args){

        try {
            Controllers.create();
        } catch (LWJGLException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        Controllers.poll();

        for(int i = 0;i<Controllers.getControllerCount(); i++){
            controller = Controllers.getController(i);
            System.out.println(controller.getName());
        }


    }

}

(i have tried putting Controllers.destroy() at the end but that doesnt work)
here is my error:

org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Failed to initialise controllers

It seems you're trying to use LWJGL2 legacy API with LWJGL3. Download and add to your classpath LWJGL2's jar.

LWJGL3's input handling works differently via GLFW
