Problem with HelloWorld jogl example

OpenGL Development JOGL Development
#1

Greetings,

I just attempted to run a helloworld OpenGL demo from this site http://opengl.j3d.org/tutorials/helloworld.html
After downloading jogl.jar and incorporating it into JBuilder as a new library and then downloading the jar for Windows native stuff, I get the following error messages

import net.java.games.jogl.Animator;
import net.java.games.jogl.GL;
import net.java.games.jogl.GLCanvas;
import net.java.games.jogl.GLCapabilities;
import net.java.games.jogl.GLDrawable;
import net.java.games.jogl.GLDrawableFactory;
import net.java.games.jogl.GLEventListener;

None of these packages exist.

What am I doing wrong, help pleeeeease.

The tutorial is outdated, see this discussion for information on what to change. In case of the tutorial, I think you just have to replace the import statements with the new locations and to change GLDrawable to GLAutoDrawable.
