I have looked through many answers to similar questions. But couldn't narrow down to a solution.
Following is the code: (Simplifying names for readability)
First class:
package p1;
public class C1 {
public static void test() {
System.out.println("Boom!");
}
}
Second class:
package p2;
import p1;
public class C2 {
public static void main(String[] params) {
C1.test();
}
}
Clean-Build doesn't give any error. (No compilation error)
But at runtime I'm getting following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: C1.test()V
at C2.main(C2.java:6)
Java Result: 1
P.S. I'm using Netbeans.
This means that you are running your class C2 with an old version of class C1 in the classpath (a version that did not yet have the test() method).
Make sure you don't have old versions of C1.class somewhere. Remove all your *.class files and recompile everything, and then try to run it again.
Addition: As Kevin Bowersox noted in a comment, your main method must look like this:
public static void main(String[] args)
It must take a String[] as an argument.
It will properly compile and run only if main function will have String tab as args.
But also check versions of class C1 and C2, try rebuild your project to recompile that classes.
public static void main(String args[]) {
C1.test();
}
i think you should import it as
import p1.*;
Than you will get access to all classes and member functions in it.
Netbeans sometimes likes to get stuck after some changes and clean build doesn't work then.
Try editing each file that has been recently modified and saving it again (e.g. put a whitespace in a random place). After that, clean and build the project again.
If my memory refreshes and as Jesper pointed out, I also encountered that same issue NoSuchMethodFoundException under that same scenario (having still old class references that have not been cleaned).
I just copied your code snippets with 2 different packages directly in to my netbean, compiled and runned C2. It did print the BOOM! message.
In my case using :
public static void main(String args[]){
}
does not make a difference when I compiled and runned the code.
public static void main(String params[]){
}
It makes sense since the main class should have the correct method signature of main.
Here args or params, should not make a huge difference, I believe; as what we have inside the method is simply a reference for the inner body of the method that it uses.
Still definitely it is good practice to follow the standard signature for main.
I would recommend to clean the project and copy the contents from scratch in a new project and build it again, sometimes netbeans can go crazy.

I'm learning java and practicing on sololearn.com and I copied one of the examples to practice typing code. However the code here -
//Create myClass
class Loader extends Thread {
public static void main(String[] args) {
}
public void run(){
System.out.println("Hello Young World");
}
}
public class MyClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Loader obj = new Loader();
obj.start();
}
}
isn't printing "Hello Young World" to my console. In fact I had to add a 'main()' method to the Loader class just to run MyClass.java. However in the example their code ran without having to include a main method in Loader. Maybe they have customized their environment to allow for this type coding and IntelliJ just has different rules. Please could someone copy the code on their machines and run it with IntelliJ to see if they run into the same problem?
I've troubleshooted, but the code seems to be solid.
I guess you start the wrong main-method (the main from the Loader class which is empty). As you noted, you don´t have to add a main-method in your Loader class. Please remove the method and start the main-method from MyClass.
If you have several main-methods, you can choose which one should be executed in the run configurations. In your example, it should look like this:
In this case, make sure you select the one you like to execute.
Another way to execute the right main-method, is to select the class which contains the main-method and hit the play button on the left side:
To run the program in my console I had to 'java MyClass' rather than running 'java MyClass.java' which executed the whole file rather than just the class whose main method I wanted to call!
To run the program in IntelliJ I had to make sure that the right Class was being called as pointed out above.
Notice that the run option for the main class is greyed out. I tried restarting intelliJ, rebuilding, cleaning, everything.

Move your code inside of the src folder. Once it's there, it'll be compiled on-the-fly every time it's saved.
IntelliJ only recognizes files in specific locations as part of the project - namely, anything inside of a blue folder is specifically considered to be source code.
Also - while I can't see all of your source code - be sure that it's proper Java syntax, with a class declared the same as the file and that it has a main method (specifically public static void main(String[] args)). IntelliJ won't run code without a main method (rather, it can't - neither it nor Java would know where to start).
Use
public static void main(String[] args))
Your main method requires a String array or varargs argument to be picked up.
Correct your main() method, from:
public static void main() {...}
to
public static void main(String[] args) {...}
So my first time using Eclipse doing an elementary program. I noticed that in Eclipse, you cannot compile a single class file. Rather you need to create a project on top of that. So I did create a project and created a class under the project. I noticed the code
package PackageName;
at the top of the class file. And if I delete the file and run the file, it gives me errors. May anyone answer me why is this happening? Thanks.
My code:
public class CSYes {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Computer Science, Yes!!!!");
System.out.println("=========================");
}
}
Error Message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
at proj1.CSYes.main(CSYes.java:3)
However, If I have
package proj1;
public class CSYes {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Computer Science, Yes!!!!");
System.out.println("=========================");
}
}
It works perfectly fine.
The Eclipse IDE encourages you to use packages. In general, it's a good idea. I'd encourage you to use packages, too.
It is NOT, however, a requirement. It sounds like you inadverantly created a "proj1" package when you created the project and/or .java class. Whoops!
To fix the problem, simply a) delete the package reference in your .java source, then b) move the .java file OUT of "/src/proj1" and put in directly under "/src" (the "default package").
... OR, EASIER ...
Delete the entire source (both CSYes.java and proj1)
File > New > Java Class > Name= CSYes; leave package "blank" (i.e. "default package")
Copy/paste your code back into CSYes.
Voila! Done :)
I've been running different individual Java .java files in the Netbeans IDE by right-clicking the .java files themselves in the Project Explorer of Netbeans (the portion normally at the upper left part of Netbeans).
However, i've been googling on how to make a class file run another class file using code, but to no avail.
I have a project named "loadanotherfile" with 2 files, namely: Loadanotherfile.java and otherfile.java
I'm trying to make Loadanotherfile.java run otherfile.java, but I'm not exactly sure how. I read about Classloaders and URLClassloaders however these methods don't seem suitable for my purpose of running another .java file.
Below is the code of the 2 files i mentioned.
Loadanotherfile.java
package loadanotherfile;
public class Loadanotherfile {
/**
* #param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello World!");
// TODO code application logic here
}
}
otherfile.java
package loadanotherfile;
public class otherfile {
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("This is the other file.");
}
}
I have a feeling that the task has something to do with using the "import" syntax (namely something like import loadanotherfile.* but even if my guess is correct, I'm still not sure on how to make my Loadanotherfile.java run otherfile.java using code.
How can I load otherfile.java using Loadanothefile.java?
Cheers
In Loadanotherfile.java
otherfile.main(args);
Compile the two together, and then from Loadanotherfile,
otherfile.main(args);
will do the trick. You don't need to import since you're in the same package. Note the linked tutorial.
I would investigate (however) class instantiation, and creating an instance of a new class to invoke upon. Invoking static methods from static methods isn't very OO.
Try This:
className.main(Args){
}
This works! ive tested it myself.
Check the public void main line. If there IOException and not there then insert
in Loadanotherfile.java
use this
otherfile.main(args);{
}
I love the Intellij IDEA but i have been stacked on one little problem with Java imports.
So for example there is a package with name "example" and two different classes in it: A.java and B.java.
And i wanna get access to class "A" from class "B" without imports. Like this:
class A:
package example;
public class A{ ... some stuff here ...}
class B:
package example;
public class B{
public static void main(String[] args){
A myVar = new A();
}
}
This code may not work, but it's doesn't matter. Trouble just with IDE and with its mechanism of importing classes.
So, problem is that i can't see A class from B. Idea says 'Cant resolve symbol' but i actually know that class A exists in package. Next strange is that complier works fine and there are no exceptions. Just IDEA can't see the class in the same package.
Does anybody has any ideas?
If they are in the same package, you can access A in class B without import:
package example;
public class B{
public static void main(String[] args){
A myA = new A();
}
}
Maybe this will help you, or somebody else using IntelliJ that is getting a "Cannot resolve symbol" error but can still compile their code.
Lets say you have the two files that buymypies wrote up, the standard Java convention is that the two files would exist in an Example directory in your source code area, like /myprojectpath/src/Example. But it is technically not a requirement to reflect the package structure in the source directory structure, just a best practice sort of thing.
So, if you don't mimic the package structure, and the two files are just in /myprojectpath/src, IntelliJ will give you the "Cannot resolve symbol" error because it expects the source code structure to reflect the package structure, but it will compile okay.
I'm not sure if this is your problem, but I do use IntelliJ and have seen this, so it's something to look at.
I have the same problem as this: 2 classes in the same package, yet when one tries to call the other, Intellij underlines it in red and says Cannot resolve symbol 'Classname', e.g. Cannot resolve symbol 'LocalPreferencesStore'.
It then wants to add the fully qualified name in situ - so it clearly knows the path - so why can't it just access the class?
The module still compiles and runs, so it's just the IDE behaving oddly - and all that red is very distracting, since it isn't actually an error, it's just IDEA throwing a weird wobbly.
This is also recent. Two weeks ago I wasn't having this problem at all, and now suddenly it's started up. Of course, it could go away again on its own soon, but it's really annoying.
Same issue and I just fixed it.
I don't know your folder structure.
However, if your package example was added manually.That's the problem.
The package should be the same as your folder structure,which means if you want your class file to be stored in package example,you must store you java file in the src's subfolder named example.
You need to learn the basics about Java i think.
Here is a basic example of what i think you are trying:
package Example;
public class A
{
String myVar;
public String getMyVar()
{
return myVar;
}
public void setMyVar(String myVar)
{
this.myVar = myVar;
}
}
You need to create an instance of A.
package Example;
public class B
{
/**
* #param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
A myA = new A();
myA.setMyVar("Hello World!");
System.out.println(myA.getMyVar);
}
}
Look up java 'getters' and 'setters'.
