Java helloworld program help*

LinuxNewbie999 · 09-16-2007, 05:45 AM

What is wrong with this program?

class helo{
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}

I got this error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: helo

Type "java helo" to compile right?

You use "javac helo.java" to compile and then "java helo" to run the program.

By the way, it's a recommended practice to capitalize java class names and a good one to avoid spelling mistakes so you'd rather name your file Hello.java and the class itself Hello.
