When I compile "javac incdem.java" there's the error message as follows: cannot read: incdem.java It can't have anything to do with DOS-path etc. because other programms compile without error. I think the JVM doesn't understand the code. Please help Thanks.
class incdem { public static void main(String args[]) { int x; int y; x = 1; x = x++; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; x = ++x; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; x = x--; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; x = --x; System.out.print(x + "\n"); } } => This code compiles with "cannot read error: incdem.java" ------------------------------------------------------------ class incDe { public static void main(String args[]) { int x; int y; x = 1; x++; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; ++x; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; x--; System.out.print(x + "\n"); x = 1; --x; System.out.print(x + "\n"); } } This code compiles correctly and results in: 2 2 0 0

May be while compiling you misspelt the java file. This error comes only when it can't find the specified java file.

I know my mistake now. I put it in in the wrong directory so the JVM couldn't find it. Thomas M.
