java swing component cannot be resolved

Question

I took the following code from a tutorial:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.Date;

public class SwingGUI {

    public static void main( String[] args          


        

Answer 1

Obviously the problem did not lie in the code, because it worked for everyone else. So I decided do remove and re-install java and eclipse, et voilà! Now it works. Thank you all for your feedback.
