Enum

The k & b Book says that an enum that isnt declared in a class can be marked only with public/default modifier, like a no-inner class.
But when I declare an enum as public. I get an error
class Nums is public, should be declared in a file named Nums.java.

This is obvious man. If you have a public class, then you must declare it in it's own file name. And since an enum is also a class internally, so you must create it in it's own file...

Can you show the code, with the error message as well.
What name are you trying to save it with?

Hi ankit, I know its obvious. But when I read that line in k&b, I thought of trying it.

There's nothing wrong in trying, infact it is very right........but why are you getting the error....I guess it is solved

AS Ankit said, a source file can have only one public class.
