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'.

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 :)
It's a simple class and I am a beginner with Java.
I don't know why this code is not running and why it gives an error :
Could not find or load main class
class tuto{
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}
There are a couple things which jump out at me when I look at your question.
The first thing is that you have unresolved compiler errors. If you see that red 'x' on the Problems tab, you should fix all the errors there before trying to run anything.
The second thing is that your class name doesn't match the file name in which it is defined. For public classes the name of the class and the name of the file must match, and while your class isn't public, this is a widely followed Java convention and you will confuse people if you don't follow it.
As to your actual question, my best guess is that you have placed your class into a package and not declared it as such in your source code. If you go look at the Problems tab, it will tell you what is wrong and (often) how to fix it.
I can approximate your error message if I do the following:
In this case, I have an error over in the Problems tab complaining about the declared package.
Check to see if you have something similar:
If you do, you can right-click the error message and select "Quick Fix", and eclipse will pop up a dialog offering to add the package declaration for you:
In your code there is a compile error, that is because Syteme change it to System
Syteme.out.println("Hello World");
should be
System.out.println("Hello World");
P.S
And in Java when you have a public class in a file, then file name must be that class name. It is a must. Otherwise you will get an error.
If you have this class in a package then you must specify the package declaration first
e.g
package abc;
System.out.println not Syteme.out.println.
In Java (as somebody has already pointed) the name of the file should be of the same name of the main class within the same file.
Moreover, you should also declare an array using this syntax array_type [] array_id and not array_type array_id [].
There might be a couple of problems:
If the class is in a package, make sure you specify it. eg: package com.pak;
The class with main method always needs to be public. public class apples{}
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'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);{
}
So, my code is pretty simple. Just wanted to try and create a package.
// /home/user1/Code/packageTest/src/myPackage/Test.java
package myPackage;
public class Test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Hello, world.");
}
}
let's say this code is in some directory myPackage.
If I comment out the first line (package specification) the code runs fine, prints the message. It compiles either way, but if it compiled with the package line not commented out, it causes a run-time error.
What do I need to do to successfully make a package? I can't seem to find the right search terms to turn up a real explanation on this, only stuff about package naming conventions, why they're used to separate namespaces, bla bla bla. The next part of this experiment was going to be trying import my own packages, obviously I didn't even get that far.
Something to do with the classpath perhaps...? What and where is my "base directory"? Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
You should create the class in a java file in a directory with name myPackage. Then you should come out of that directory and compile it as follows
javac myPackage/Test.java
Then run it with fully-qualified-class-name (FQCN) as follows:
java myPackage.Test
E.g.
C:\Temp\test1>type myPackage\Test.java
package myPackage;
public class Test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.println("Hello, world.");
}
}
C:\Temp\test1>javac myPackage/Test.java
C:\Temp\test1>java myPackage.Test
Hello, world.
C:\Temp\test1>
