Problem when trying to instanciate a Bean ->

[Dominic Steng�rd]

Hi all freaky coders out there!
I am trying to instanciate a Bean with the following code:
DbConnection dbConn = new DbConnection();
Both the Bean I'm calling from and the one I'm trying to instatnciate are in the same package, and still I get the following error message:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol: class DbConnection
location: class test_beans.Member
DbConnection dbConn = new DbConnection
���������������       �����������^
I just can't figure out where the problem is, I have tried everything and checked the code over and over... please help me out.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

What's a DbConnection? I can't find it anywhere in the API.
Try just Connection.

DbConnection is my homebuilt bean and it should be just like instanciating any class.

Well it is looking for a symbol, not a class, so it sounds like the line above the one that you showed us is in error. Perhaps some more complete code would help?

Does your bean have a public or protected no-arg constructor ?
