Classpath

[hardik shah]

Hi,

I am new to java.

I have developed a single file

class cname
{
import java.io.*;
{
public static void main (Strings args[])
{
// some code
}
}

when i compile above programme, i found follwoing error
import java.io - illegal of start type
^

I think it may be due to improper classpath setting.

any help will be sincerely appreciated.

Java's syntax is a bit different; from to top bottom, you have to do this:

1) an (optional) package statement (you dont' need one for now);
2) all the classes you'd need to import;
3) your class or interface definition(s).

So your file should look like this:

[code=java]
import java.io.*;

class cname {

public static void main (Strings args[]) {
// some code
}
}
[/code]

When you want to post some more, have a look at the little pane to the right
of the edit window: it explains how to make your code look like code.

kind regards,
