Import problems in eclipse

Question

Consider the following steps than I've taken:

I created a new java project, named 'A' in my eclipse work space.
I created a new class named 'Class1' and mentioned no package name for it. So it was created in the default package.
I created a new package named 'somepackage' and created a new class named 'class2' in this package.

Now I need to import class1 in class2, and use its features and services. But whatever I do I can't do this. What is the way to overcome this problem?

First, put them into package, this is strongly recommended. Then you can focus to that Class1 and Ctrl Shift M to import — HungPV, Apr 12 '16 at 06:34
Keep Class1 in some package.and import it.otherwise you can't — khaja firoz, Apr 12 '16 at 06:37

You have to put your Class1 in a package other than default package in order to import it or you can use reflection to use it from default package.

You mean isn't there any way that does not require me to edit the code of class1? – Narges Apr 12 '16 at 06:31
You can use reflection as mentioned in answer – Sanjeev Apr 12 '16 at 06:34
What do you mean exactly by reflection? – Narges Apr 12 '16 at 06:35
