My code is:  
...  
settings = org.elasticsearch.common.settings.Settings.builder().put("[cluster.name](http://cluster.name)","es01t").build();  
client = org.elasticsearch.client.transport.TransportClient.builder().settings(settings).build().addTransportAddress(new org.elasticsearch.common.transport.InetSocketTransportAddress(java.net.InetAddress.getByName("localhost"),Integer.valueOf(22099)));  
...

BUT Eclipse warns me:  
"The method builder() is undefined for the type TransportClient"

Any suggestion?

ES and Lucene versions are:  
elasticsearch-5.2.2.jar  
lucene-core-4.4.0.jar

Thank you,  
Lorenzo
