jars in my lib

Path added in system variable

xwork package added in my lib folder, system variable[class path], but while compiling I'm getting the error stating that the package isn't added on my class path. Doing the project only by notepad file not in the eclipse or any other IDE. This is my task need to do. Tried so many ways but unable to fix.

ActionSupport is in a different library. To get the current implementation of ActionSupport,

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;

My team is on Apache Struts 2.5.30, and the distribution .jar includes the class you seek. You can also look at Struts 6.0.3.

Docs: https://struts.apache.org/maven/struts2-core/apidocs/com/opensymphony/xwork2/ActionSupport.html

Since you have added a library xwork.jar on the classpath manually you can't run your project because this library is removed from the lib set.

For more details how to resolve conflict between packages xwork and xwork-core see this answer Conflicts in xwork and xwork-core.

Each distro of Struts2 supplied with the corresponding set of libraries in the lib folder that are compatible with the version of distro. If you use maven to resolve and fetch the dependencies you should consider the artifact struts2-core.
