Rico Felix wrote:To solve you can either go up and out of the src directory then down into the dict directory or specify the absolute path from the root of the file system
Example:
Seeing that the RowReader class is within src/com/example/dict and the dict directory is relative to the src directory to access the file in that directory your path will have to be specified as ../../../../dict/en_US2sv_SV.dict or you can specify the absolute path as say /home/sven/workspace/Dictionary/dict/en_US2sv_SV.dict

But your code looks for it in the root directory. Remember, just because you see your code as an "Android project", that doesn't change how the operating system sees your file. If it starts with "/" then it starts looking for it in the root directory, not in your source directory.

First cast:
You are casting IX reference to type B. B does not implement IX but some class that extends B could do that. Change B definition to final and you will see compile time error.
Pawel Pawlowicz wrote:Second cast:
This cast is legal at compile time. You are getting compiler error because you are trying to cast variable a which does not exist!
