Basic package syntax

Question

I'm creating a new class in a package called beans. Problem is, my attempts to create an object in the new file using the old file's class produces a "cannot resolve symbol" error. I've fiddled about but nothing's worked. Here's some snippets:
package pk;
public class Db implements java.io.Serializable {
    public Db() {
    private String update(Connection conn, String sql, Vector param) throws SQLException {
package pk;
public class X implements java.io.Serializable {
    public X() {
    private String InsertX(Connection conn) {
        Db db;
db.update(conn, sql, param);
}Both lines in InsertX fail. Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer 1

Are you using the -d option in javac to specify where your class files are to be stored? And, do you put the the same location in your classpath when you run java?
For example:
javac -d classes src/pk/Db.java
javac -classpath classes -d classes src/pk/X.java
// assume Db has a main method
java -classpath classes pk.Db.javaThis assumes you have a src/pk directory containing your source, and a classes directory where java automatically create a pk sub-directory to store your class files.
