Parse errors while creating a Web service from Java class!

Question

Can anybody tell me please, is it possible to create a Web Service from java class where the input from user is required ?
I have the following program, which is successfully compiled, but when I'm trying to make a web service in JDeveloper, the following error occurs:
"Validation failed.
The implementation class primePackage.isPrime ofport type MyWebService contains parse errors."
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
class isPrime
public static void main (String args[])
Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
int n;
System.out.println ("Enter a number you want to know is it prime or not");
n=reader.nextInt();
if (isPrime(n))
System.out.println ("True");
else
System.out.println ("False");
static boolean isPrime (int n)
int i=2;
while (i<=n-1)
if (n%i==0)
return false;
i++;
return true;
}

Hi,
Can anybody tell me please, is it possible to create
a Web Service from java class where the input from
user is required ?Yes, the parameters of your method will be mapped in WSDL.
But i've some considerations about your code.
I suggest you change the name of isPrime do Prime, its a good code convention to put the name of class starting with Upper case. and isn't good the name of class equals to name of method.
I suggest you to change the "static boolean isPrime (int n)" to "public boolean isPrime(int n)" to publish a method as a WebService method it's must be public and not static. After this change try to generate your Web Service.
