I'm trying to input information in Java console application but I can't seem to run it.
This is how my Java file looks like:
public class Ovning1_3
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
String name;
System.out.println("Enter your name");
name = Keyboard.readString();
System.out.println(name);
}
}
But I get the error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
Keyboard cannot be resolved
at Ovning1_3.main(Ovning1_3.java:9)
I have a keyboard.class file in my source folder.
I'm using Eclipse with Ubuntu.
Unresolved compilation problem:
means that the code could not be compiled.
You have to import Keyboard, something like
import uitl.Keyboard
When you use classes from a different package (not the same package of the current class), you have to import the class. If the class is also in the same package then you need not import.
Classes are generally grouped into Packages.
How do you know the package? Go to the first like of the class. This should be something like package xyz
meaning that the current class in the xyz
package. The class will be in a folder called xyz
then (This is the rule for packages: when you want to have a class in a package, say abc.xyz
then the class should have a package declaration - the first line of the code - to be package abc.xyz
and the file should be present in a folder xyz
which in then should be in a folder abc
.
try this
try{
BufferedReader buf=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter your Number :");
String number=buf.readLine();
System.out.println("your Number is :"+number);
}catch(IOException ex){}
I doubt you're still having this problem but import it like this at the top of your code.
import cs1.Keyboard;
Then it should work properly. For example:
import cs1.Keyboard;
public class NamePrinting
{
public static void main(String[]args)
{
System.out.println ("Enter your name");
String name = Keyboard.readString();
System.out.println (name);
}
}
You need to use import java.util.Scanner; for the first line and Use scanner codes instead of the "keyboard" you will get the same result with keyboard.
Try like below.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Hello {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String name;
System.out.print("enter your name:");
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
name = input.nextLine();
}
}
