How to compile the java code generated by swagger-codegen

Question

I am trying to write an example code to talk to the swaggerjavaclient created by swagger-codegen . I have my code structure as follows:

|_java
  |_  src
    |_    examplecode
          |_  example.java
     |_   swaggerjavaclient
           |_ src/main/java/io/swagger/client/api

           |_ otherswaggergeneratedfiles
           |_ pom.xml

I am getting this: error: package io.swagger.client does not exist when I run example.java which looks like below:

import io.swagger.client.ApiClient;
import io.swagger.client.api.DefaultApi;

public class example {
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
   // Code to talk to swaggerjavaclient
 }
}

When I put the structure as

|_java
  |_  src
      |_  swaggerjavaclient
          |_  examplecode
              |_ example.java
          |_  src/main/java/io/swagger/client/api

          |_ otherswaggergeneratedfiles

in Eclipse, I am able to compile and run this code.

I have two questions:

1. How can I have the original structure (have the examplecode outside of swaggerjavaclient directory) and still be able to compile and run the code?

2. How do I build and run this code from terminal?
