How do i import JSTL library?

Question

I imported JSTL in jsp page in following manner:

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%>

I have added following jars to project build path:

jstl-1.2.jar
javax.servlet.jsp.jstl-api-1.2.1.jar

but when i try to run project on a tomcat server from eclipse i get following exception:

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [jsp] in context with path [/SampleWebApp] threw exception [The absolute uri: [http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core] cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application] with root cause
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: The absolute uri: [http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core] cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application
