Please format your code using `</>` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21). It will make your post more readable.

I just checked on my end and as soon as I add the following in my `pom.xml` file:

```auto
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>transport</artifactId>
    <version>5.0.2</version>
</dependency>

```

I can write this code:

```auto
new PreBuiltTransportClient(Settings.EMPTY)
      .addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(new InetSocketAddress("127.0.0.1", 9300)));

```

If it does not work on your end, then check your IDE, your maven settings, look at eclipse messages.

What does `mvn dependency:tree` is saying?
