Import access restriction in java

Question

I have this import in my code:

import com.sun.jmx.snmp.SnmpOidDatabaseSupport;

but i get following error:

Access restriction: the type SnmpOidDatabaseSupport is not accessible 
due to restriction on required C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\rt.jar

and also if it could help my IDE is eclipse, how can i fix this error?

working on Windows 7? On W7, you have limited access under certain directories `Program Files` is one of those. — Nishant, Jan 09 '12 at 08:09

Take a look here: Access restriction on class due to restriction on required library rt.jar?

It is not exact duplicate to your question but some answers are relevant. Here are the quotes:

http://www.digizol.com/2008/09/eclipse-access-restriction-on-library.html worked best for me.

Windows -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler -> Errors/Warnings -> Deprecated and trstricted API -> Forbidden reference (access rules): -> change to warning

As you are referencing a library in Program Files folder you might not be running eclipse with administrator permission. try running eclipse with administrator permission.

or you can follow this post Access restriction on class due to restriction on required library rt.jar?

It is not about window permissions. It is the java compiler restriction. – AlexR Jan 09 '12 at 08:39
