sourceSets {
    main {

You can add jar doing:

For gradle just put following code in build.gradle:

dependencies {
...
compile fileTree(dir: 'lib', includes: ['suitetalk-*0.jar'])
...
}

and for maven just follow steps:

For Intellij: File->project structure->modules->dependency tab-> click on + sign-> jar and dependency->select jars you want to import-> ok-> apply(if visible)->ok

Remember that if you got any java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class exception at runtime this means that dependencies in jar not installed for that you have to add all dependecies in parent project.
