How do I require a file in Java? Much like require(); in PHP, and #include in C++. Would I use #include as in C++ or is there another function?
I'm not looking for import.

Would Import work with a file, or just a project? – MCPEBukkit team Feb 04 '14 at 23:32

You are looking for the import keyword. For example:
import java.util.ArrayList;

You can **only** `import` classes (which are more or less equal to files). Importing projects is not called importing. You have to add them to the classpath. – Martijn Courteaux Feb 04 '14 at 23:34

I'm afraid you *are* looking for `import`, but you simply didn't get it yet :) – Martijn Courteaux Feb 04 '14 at 23:39
