I am using the online compiler “onlinegdp” to run java and I am unable to use multiple files in my programming. The exact same code works on eclipse so I am unsure where the problem is.
I don’t know enough about java to try anything other that Object myObject = newObject(); . So anything would be helpful.
This is what is in my worker class
public class Worker { private int hours; private double rate; public Worker () { hours = 999; rate = 999; } public Worker (int nHours, double nRate) { hours = nHours; rate = nRate; } public int getHours () { return hours; } public void setHours (int nHours) { hours = nHours; } public double getRate () { return rate; } public void setRate (double nRate) { rate = nRate; } public double paycheck () { return rate * hours; } public void raiseRate (double raiseRate) { rate = raiseRate + rate; } }
This is the main class
public class Main { public static void main (String[]args) { Worker bob = new Worker (); System.out.println (bob.getHours ()); System.out.println (bob.getRate ()); bob.setHours (9); bob.setRate (7.9); System.out.println (bob.getHours ()); System.out.println (bob.getRate ()); System.out.println (bob.payCheck ()); System.out.println (bob.raiseRate ()); } }
I got this error
Main.java:14: error: cannot find symbol
Worker bob = new Worker ();
^
symbol: class Worker
location: class Main

I don’t know how onlinegdp – online compiler will save another class file & reference it. If they have functionality then you can try to add them in package & import that file using package.
It’s pain to see the folder/project structure on most of the online compiler. They are meant to run small snippet & not to run the whole project.
Below is the snippet you can run on onlinegdp
without creating the different file.
public class Main { public static void main (String[]args) { Worker bob = new Worker (); System.out.println (bob.getHours ()); } static public class Worker { private int hours; private double rate; public Worker () { hours = 999; rate = 999; } public Worker (int nHours, double nRate) { hours = nHours; rate = nRate; } public int getHours () { return hours; } public void setHours (int nHours) { hours = nHours; } public double getRate () { return rate; } public void setRate (double nRate) { rate = nRate; } public double paycheck () { return rate * hours; } public void raise (double raise) { rate = raise + rate; } } }
