Thread: Java Class Help Please!

How do I structure this??
public static void main(String[] args) {
// First we create a variable of type Employee and set it to a new
// instance of an Employee, passing some test data to the constructor. Employee e = new Employee("John", "Fey", 1962, 12.59);
// Print out the data with nice titles System.out.println("Name: " + e.firstName + " " + e.lastName); System.out.println("Emp. Id: " + e.employeeId); System.out.println("Hourly Rate: $" + e.hourlyRate); System.out.println(); // This will simply create a blank line
// We're done with this employee, so now we'll re-use the Employee variable // called "e" by once again setting it to a new instance of an Employee,
// passing different test data to the constructor.
e = new Employee("Jamie", "Poehler", 5643, 14.25);
// Print out the data with nice titles System.out.println("Name: " + e.firstName + " " + e.lastName); System.out.println("Emp. Id: " + e.employeeId); System.out.println("Hourly Rate: $" + e.hourlyRate); System.out.println(); // This will simply create a blank line
}

Hi,

You can structure like this,

 
class Employee
{
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private int employeeId;
private double hourlyRate;
 
public Employee(String firstName,String lastName,int employeeId,double hourlyRate)
{
	this.firstName=firstName;
	this.lastName=lastName;
	this.employeeId=employeeId;
	this.hourlyRate=hourlyRate;
}
 
public void printEmpDetails()
{
	System.out.println("Name: " + firstName + " " + lastName);
	System.out.println("Emp. Id: " + employeeId);
	System.out.println("Hourly Rate: $" + hourlyRate);
}
}
 
public class EmployeeTest {
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Employee emp1 = new Employee("Tina", "Fey", 2092, 12.59);
		Employee emp2= new Employee("Amy", "Poehler", 6283, 14.25);
		emp1.printEmpDetails();
		emp2.printEmpDetails();
 
	}
 
}

Don't call the one class variables to another class its not a good practice. You can call the variables via methods.

class Example//starting with capital letter is best
{
void display()
{
Outer o = new Outer();
o.test();
System.out.println("welcome to java");
}
class Outer
{
void test()
{
System.out.println("oops");
}
}
}
class ExampleTwo
{
public static void main(String arg[])
{
Example to = new Example();
to.display();

}
}

Thanks for the help, Ok it seems though I am having a problem with:

public class EmployeeTest {

Should that be there?

What problem? Post error messages, describe the problem, ask questions. Give us something to work with.
