You have several options:

  1. To add the .java file to your project, I would do it in a helper folder/package where you can use it with import (package) or [helper-folder-name]/java-file-name. Like @Phil suggested in the previous answer.
  2. put your class in a project and use it as a dependency in your project.

This looks to just be a Java file. So instead of adding it like you would a package, you would just add the DBTablePrinter.java file into your program. Then you should be able to use the static helper methods.

I would probably put this in a "helper" folder. Then you should be able to either import it, or just do "helper/DbTablePrinter.printTable();"
