Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all, This might be slightly off the topic. Hopefully someone can give me a tip. I am having a problem of loading support classes (my env is Apache Jserv1.0 plus Blackdown 1.17 JVM on Redhat5.2: I am about to go for an upgrade on both Jserv and Redhat). I have a support class compiled ok. Not a big deal. But I had a problem compiling the calling class. The error message is "Class support not found in type declaration." Can anyone tell me why? I copied the code here as well if someone can have a look. Thanks in advance. Regards Gangmeng /* the support class */ import java.util.*; public class support { private int increment; private String user, password; public support (String param1,String param2) { this.user = param1; this.password = param2; } /* the calling class */ import java.io.*; import javax.servlet.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; public class testCaller extends HttpServlet { private support newInstance; public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException { ; } public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException { ; } } } -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the FAQ! <http://java.apache.org/faq/> To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives and Other: <http://java.apache.org/main/mail.html> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
