Hi Guys..

I got error when I call plain code in servlet..
Kindly look my program

BeerExpert.java


import java.util.*;
public class BeerExpert
{
public List getBrands(String color)
{
List l = new ArrayList();
if(color.equals("amber"))
{
l.add("Gopal");
l.add("Senthil");
}
else
{
l.add("Sorry");
l.add("Ma");
}
return (l);
}
}

it compiles fine


BeerSelect.java

import javax.servlet.*;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.util.*;

public class BeerSelect extends HttpServlet
{
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse resp)throws ServletException,IOException
{
resp.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter pw=resp.getWriter();
String c = req.getParameter("color");
BeerExpert br = new BeerExpert();
List result = br.getBrands(c);


Iterator it = result.iterator();
while(it.hasNext())
{
pw.println("<br> Try:"+it.next());
}
}
}

This BeerSelect.java will always produce compile time error..

E:\>javac BeerSelect.java
BeerSelect.java:13: cannot find symbol
symbol : class BeerExpert
location: class BeerSelect
BeerExpert br = new BeerExpert();
^
BeerSelect.java:13: cannot find symbol
symbol : class BeerExpert
location: class BeerSelect
BeerExpert br = new BeerExpert();
^

One thing you can try is first try to write both the java files in single file..
Means copy BeerExpert.java code into BeerSelect.java file n then try to compile and run it.

[patilrok]

Other possibility is that the both files may be in different folders, if so put them in same folder..

Lot of thanks for your reply...

I also try that... put 2 programs in same folder(w/o packages) and compile it...

Same error occurs...

Often the local directory is not in the classpath, to add it, simply add the following to your options: '-cp .'

This will force the classpath - which is the locations for which it will look for other files needed to compile the current program - to look in the current directory
