Message:

need to include import com.bruceeckel.swing.* ?? how

Posted by Sylvia Miner on November 29, 2001 at 4:37 PM

Howdie,

I have jdk1.3.1 installed on my Windows system.

Recently purchased Bruce Eckel's book Thinking In Java.
Downloaded programs off of web, CD rom did not include code only c++ instead of java.

Bruce Eckel's example uses packages which he developed.

When I compile the Bruce Eckels's java source code examples
which include "import com.bruceeckel.swing.*" or "package
com.bruceeckel.swing", I get compilation error that reads
"package com.bruceeckel.swing does not exist". I do not believe I have it.
or the ... compiler cannot find it ... so

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions/help.

Need to turn in my assigment urgently and hope to use the book as a source of reference but it has been difficult throughout the
entire semester since I have not known how to deal with this. I will probably need it for data structures too next semester. Please help as soon as possible. Thank you again.
