Thread: bicyclejava.BicycleJava class wasn't found in Bicycle.java project

First off thank you to all that make this forum possible. I hope that I am in the right area. If I am not please forgive I will try to figure it out as time goes on.

 
class Bicycle {
 
    int cadence = 0;
    int speed = 0;
    int gear = 1;
 
    void changeCadence(int newValue) {
         cadence = newValue;
    }
 
    void changeGear(int newValue) {
         gear = newValue;
    }
 
    void speedUp(int increment) {
         speed = speed + increment;   
    }
 
    void applyBrakes(int decrement) {
         speed = speed - decrement;
    }
 
    void printStates() {
         System.out.println("cadence:" +
             cadence + " speed:" + 
             speed + " gear:" + gear);
    }
}

When I try to run I receive the sentence in the title. bicyclejava.BicycleJava class wasn't found in Bicycle.java project. I am using NetBeans IDE 7.3. Any help with this would really be appreciated and Happy Mother's Day to all.

Hi Onemoonrising, welcome to the forums!

That class is not actually "runnable": for that there has to be a main() method. Moreover the class you posted is Bicycle whereas the compiler message talks about a bicyclejava.BicycleJava class. Are there any other classes involved in this project? On the left hand side of NetBeans there is a list which tells you which packages are in your project, and which classes are in those packages. It might help if you described the contents of that "Projects" panel.
