I am trying to make an instance of one of my classes in a servlet class, as
I have done countless times in non-servlet, plain-vanilla Java
classes.  For example:

public class DbConn
{
         public DbConn()
         {
                 ...
         }
}

--- AND ---

import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class CurrStudent extends HttpServlet
{
         public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException
         {
                 private DbConn db = new DbConn(); // <-- HERE
                 ...
         }
}

However, when I compile the CurrStudent class, I get the following error:

CurrStudent.java:__: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : class DbConn
location: class CurrStudent
                 DbConn db = new DbConn();
                 ^
Why can't the compiler find the DbConn class?  Do I need to do something
special because the instantiating class is a servlet?

Thanks for any help,
Ashur
