Hi All,
I am trying to add jars for db2 connection in ide 8.1 but I couldt find the method for that. I looked that in older version you can add it under properties-->libraries--> add jars section. But now there is no libraries section in properties. Can you tell me from where I can add this

You can still add JARs as libraries to Java projects. Either in project properties and Libraries category or through Libraries node under project root in explorer.

Created attachment 165392 [details]
Properties window

Hello, you can see in the attachment that there is no libraries section in the properties window of projects. 
I added like a library under tools-->Libraries section. But can't add it to the project. Please show me the way.

You are using Maven based web project. Instead, create a new Ant based project (Java Web category and Web Application project type) which will give you the same functionality you are looking for.
