    Default Switch from integer to a float

    Hey guys I am trying to get my post-fix expression code to work with a float after I have already created it using an integer, the reason is so that I can get decimal places when I divide. The problem is that I am getting a run time error and I am not sure why. Here is my original code using integers (THAT WORKS) and following is the switch to float. Appreciate any help. Thanks

    import java.util.Stack;
    import java.util.StringTokenizer;
     
    public class P2Evaluate
    {
     
    	private final char ADD = '+';
    	private final char SUBTRACT = '-';
    	private final char MULTIPLY = '*';
    	private final char DIVIDE = '/';
     
    	Stack<Integer> stack = new Stack<Integer>();
     
    	public int evaluate (String expr)
    	{
    		int op1 = 0;
    		int op2 = 0;
    		int result = 0;
    		String token;
    		StringTokenizer tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(expr);
     
    		while (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
    		{
    			token = tokenizer.nextToken();
     
    			if (isOperator(token))
    			{
    				op2 = (stack.pop()).intValue();
    				op1 = (stack.pop()).intValue();
    				result = evalSingleOp (token.charAt(0), op1, op2);
    				stack.push (new Integer(result));
    			}
    			else
    			{
    				stack.push (new Integer(Integer.parseInt(token)));
    			}
     
     
    		}
           return result;
    	}

    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: P2Evaluate.evaluate(Ljava/lang/StringI
    at P2Control$solveListener.actionPerformed(P2Control. java:55)
    That type of error normally happens at compile time. It looks like a class was changed after another class was compiled using the earlier version.

    Try recompiling all the classes and test again.
