Using library defined classes or not

Question

I've an existing class in my program named Document.
and I am using a Dom4j library which so happens have the class Document as well...
Now, my program runs into a conflict such that within this class, let's call it "processfiles.java" it requires both Document class to be used.
I knew to call the library's class, all I need to do is to use org.dom4j.document... etc...
but my user-defined Document class also points to the org.dom4j class implicitly hence it couldnt finds the method that i want to execute..
how can i change my code such that I am refering to MY Document class and not org.Dom4j.Document class??
Greatly appreciate any help.

Answer 1

so can i assume as long as these classes does not import org.Dom4j.Document, i wouldn't need to refer to these Document class using my package name?correct
currently all my java files reside in a root folder called test...may i know how should i name my package as?you wouldn't specify a package then in that case. This is generally discouraged tho. but in that case, if you need to use both kinds of Documents, don't import either, just specify
org.jdom.Document
and
Document
in the code
