How to make package and import it into another class

[vinay javaranch]

BeerExpert

package com.example.model;
import java.util.*;

public class BeerExpert
{
	public List getBrands(String color)
	{
		List<String> brands=new ArrayList<String>();
		if(color.equals("amber"))
		{
			brands.add("Jack Amber");
			brands.add("Red Moose");
		}
		else
		{
			brands.add("Jail Pale Ale");
			brands.add("Gout Stout");
		}
		return brands;
	}
}

BeerSelect

package com.example.web;

import com.example.model.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;


public class BeerSelect extends HttpServlet
{
 public void doPost(HttpServletRequest r,HttpServletResponse q)
	throws IOException,ServletException
 {
	

	String s=r.getParameter("color");
	
	BeerExpert be=new BeerExpert();
	List result=be.getBrands(s);

	q.setContentType("text/html");
	PrintWriter out=q.getWriter();
	out.println("Beer Selection Advice<br>");

	Iterator it=result.iterator();
	while(it.hasNext())
	{
		out.println("<br>try: "+it.next());
	}
	
 }
}

while compiling the BeerExpert they compile with no error..and package is build
so, i want to import the package into the Beerselect but it shows the compilation error


package com.example.model does not exit import com.example.model.*;

so, any one who solve the above problem

Try:

import com.example.model.BeerExpert;

Also ensure that the package/path; com/example/model is in your classpath or buildpath (Eclipse)

i had done this already but found same compile error

[Jesper de Jong]

Make sure that the base directory of the package com.example.model is in the classpath.

"some compile error" really doesn't tell us much of anything. The compile error actually has quite a lot of info in it, telling you exactly what is wrong. Please copy and post the entire message here if you want someone to help you. Otherwise, the best we could do would be to make random guesses as to the issue, which is really a waste of everyone's time.

And also please tell us where that code comes from.
