Cannot find symbol ERROR only in Sprint's Toolkit

Question

Hi,
I am using Netbeans 6.5, Java 1.6_10 (because _12 was not letting me install Sprint emulator) and I have a small issue, please help me:
The thing is that I can develop and use Sun's Wireless Toolkit normally without any error messages, but when I tried to use Sprint's... I got this message in a simple Java.Lang.comparator class:
Compiling 1 source file to C:\Users\Marcio\Documents\NetBeansProjects\MobileApplication3\build\compiled
C:\Users\Marcio\Documents\NetBeansProjects\MobileApplication3\src\CreateAddressBook.java:16: cannot find symbol
symbol : class Comparable
location: package java.lang
class CreateAddressBook implements java.lang.Comparable {
1 error
C:\Users\Marcio\Documents\NetBeansProjects\MobileApplication3\nbproject\build-impl.xml:398: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)
regarding this class:
class CreateAddressBook implements java.lang.+Comparable+ {
I've never used Sprint's Toolkit before, but I did exactly what was said to install it and had no error messages during install, everything fine.
The Sprint Emulator appears normally at the proprieties page, but when I click "Ok" appears that red exclamation on the class in one of the files.
I've tried to import, no success. Netbeans gives me a yellow highlight saying that this import is not being used.
I've checked everywhere (not this where that you're thinking, but you have to tell me)... and didn't find the possible error. I've never used Sprint with my application. That in the picture is an attempt to isolate the problem creating a new project with the only problematic class.
Have to remember that everything works really great with Sun's Wireless Toolkit, only get's an error when I change to Sprint's Toolkit.
Please help
Thanks,
Marcio

Use code tags when you post code.
Post the code that produces the error - the code that you posted does not.
The code you posted has the following errors
VolcanoRobot.java:18: ')' expected
                System.out.println("Status: " status);
                                             ^
VolcanoRobot.java:18: illegal start of expression
                System.out.println("Status: " status);
                                                    ^
VolcanoRobot.java:19: ')' expected
                System.out.println("Speed: " speed);
                                            ^
VolcanoRobot.java:19: illegal start of expression
                System.out.println("Speed: " speed);Once those errors are fixed you get the errors that you posted.
VolcanoRobot.java:25: cannot find symbolThe number in that line (25) tells you the exact line where the error appeared. Although sometimes the cause might be a line before that.
It also tells you specifically what it doesn't like. In this case 'showAttributes'.
Hint: So look at that line carefully. And look at the method carefully that that is supposed to call. They are not the same.
