Why am I not able to this code in eclipse?

Hi friends,

please let me know why I am not able to run this following program. This is program is there in complete reference book (packages);


package MyPack;
class Balance
{
String name;
double bal;

Balance(String n,double b)
{
name=n;
bal=b;
}
void show()
{
if(bal<0)
{
System.out.println("-->");
System.out.println(name+": $"+bal);
}
}
}

class AccountBalance
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Balance current[]=new Balance[3];

current[0]=new Balance("K.J.Fielding",123.123);
current[1]=new Balance("Will Tell",157.02);
current[2]=new Balance("Tom Jackson",-12.33);

for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
current[i].show();
}
}




I am gettting the following exceptions

1. A java excpetion has occured
2.Could not find the main class,a JNI error has occured, please check installation and try again.

But I m able to run other programs on the same eclipse.

Thanks.

Try removing the package declaration at the top of your Balance class.

@Hunter,
I tried after seeing your reply, but still same issue .

Hmm. My compiler was telling me the package didn't exist, so when I removed the package declaration it ran fine. Are the files saved in the same directory?

Hunter

@Hunter
yes,
the directory structre goes like this

src->MyPack-->then the .class files.

I noticed that .class files of both the classes are generated, it means it is compiling fine, but i guess something wrong while running the program.

Please let me know if you have the solution thanks in advance.

What happens when you run the application from the command line?

When I try to compile the AccountBalance class I receive this error:



AccountBalance.java:5: cannot access Balance bad class file: .\Balance.class class file contains wrong class: MyPack.Balance Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath. Balance current[] = new Balance[3]; ^ 1 error

Hunter

Ok so I feel dumb, I figured out what the issue is. The compiler is looking for a directory called "MyPack" and not finding one. Create a folder called MyPack and add the Balance.java and Balance.class files inside of it. This should fix your issue. Now you just have to import the package in the AccountBalance.java file.

From command prompt also I am getting this
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: MyPack/AccountBala

I am making sure I am outside Mypack package while running the program and I am using java MyPackage.AccountBalance to run but still no success

The code you posted originally did not have AccountBalance.java in MyPack, are both files in the package ? or just Balance?

Hunter

@Hunter
Eclipse is implicitely created the Mypackage folder also but still i m not able to run:(

Solution for your problem:

Put the below code in "AccountBalance.java"

package MyPack; public class AccountBalance { public static void main(String args[]) { Balance current[]=new Balance[3]; current[0]=new Balance("K.J.Fielding",123.123); current[1]=new Balance("Will Tell",157.02); current[2]=new Balance("Tom Jackson",-12.33); for(int i=0;i<3;i++) current[i].show(); } }


The below one in "Balance.java"

package MyPack; public class Balance { String name; double bal; Balance(String n,double b) { name=n; bal=b; } void show() { if(bal<0) { System.out.println("-->"); System.out.println(name+": $"+bal); } } }

Compile it like this:

javac -d . AccountBalance.java
javac -d . Balance.java

Run it like this:

java MyPack.AccountBalance
