<h1>
Creating a new Java package
</h1>
<p>
To create new Java packages in the Package Explorer:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Optionally, select the project or source folder where you want the package to reside.
</li>
<li>
Click the <strong>New Java Package</strong> button in the workbench toolbar. The New Java Package wizard opens.
</li>
<li>
Edit the&nbsp;<strong><strong>Source Folder</strong></strong> field to indicate in which container you want the new package to reside. You can either type a path or
click&nbsp;<strong><strong>Browse</strong></strong> to find the container. If a folder was selected when you chose to create the new package, that folder appears in
the&nbsp;<strong><strong>Source Folder</strong></strong> field as the container for the new package.
</li>
<li>
In the&nbsp;<strong><strong>Name</strong></strong> field, type a name for the new package.
</li>
<li>
Click&nbsp;<strong><strong>Finish</strong></strong> when you are done.
</li>
</ol>
<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> the default (unnamed) package always exists and does not need to be created.
