keywords as pkg directory names

[Mike Mitchell]

Hey guys. Y'all are probably already aware, but I was surprised enough to share by the fact that I seem not to be allowed to use keywords as package directory names. Anyways, perhaps an insidious test question waiting to happen :-).

   
francoeur:common mike$ javac -d classes/ src/package/for/common/classes/*.java
src/package/for/common/classes/Dog.java:1: <identifier> expected
package package.for.common.classes;
        ^
src/package/for/common/classes/Pack.java:1: <identifier> expected
package package.for.common.classes;
        ^
2 errors
 

   
francoeur:common mike$ javac -d classes/ src/packedge/for/common/classes/*.java
src/packedge/for/common/classes/Dog.java:1: <identifier> expected
package packedge.for.common.classes;
                 ^
src/packedge/for/common/classes/Pack.java:1: <identifier> expected
package packedge.for.common.classes;
                 ^
2 errors
 

   
francoeur:common mike$ javac -d classes/ src/packedge/fer/common/classes/*.java
