Ok, so i used to have a class called EasyIn that i used all the time for getting the users input from the keyboard. Now i've been trying to use this file again for another class and i get some weird error messages.

Heres the file i'm using the EasyIn class in.

Code: Select all

class EvenOrOdd
{
	/*
	*	A class that simply tests whether the input is odd or even
	* 	@author Andy Townsend
	*	@version 1.0 (12/01/04)
	*/
	public static void main(String[]args)
	{
		int numberToCheck;
		System.out.println("Please enter a number: \t");
		numberToCheck = EasyIn.getInt();

		if(numberToCheck % 2 == 1)
		{
			//odd
			System.out.println("That number was odd");
		}else
		{
			//even
			System.out.println("That number was even");
		}
	}
}

and heres the errror message i'm recieving when i go to compile it. This code has worked before in the past in many different classes. The easyIn files are also located in the same directory as EvenOrOdd.java /class files.

D:\WORK\YEAR2\JAVA\EvenOrOdd.java:12: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable EasyIn
location: class EvenOrOdd
numberToCheck = EasyIn.getInt();
^
1 error

Tool completed with exit code 1

CHEERS for any help people can offer. THis is really starting to annoy me!

Only change to the system have been when i installed DJ Decompiler although this has been uninstalled now. I've tried re-installing java but no luck and so i'm just wondering if its a problem with Textpad.

Cheers once again

Import your EasyIn class?

The thing is i've never needed to do that in the past. It will now compile via the command line using javac -classpath .EvenOrOdds and then runs via java EvensOrOdds.

Just wondering if i can change it in textpad to let me compile it in there again??

Also how exactly do i go about importing the classes. Have tried import EasyIn; but no luck.

Cheers for your help

Try adding the working folder to your Java Classpath, it's the "."(dot)
That's assuming your EasyIn class is in the same folder as EvenOrOdd.
Take a look at http://www.textpad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4838

cheers for that m8, finally its sorted

And such a stupid error, something must have boned my version of textpad or java as it did use to work properly without that.

Anyways, cheers
