    Default New to Java, looking for a little help

    Ive included the original code and my new code. Im trying to use the balloon command to make a balloon with a name and altitude, but keep getting this error:


    "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - Erroneous tree type: Balloon.Balloon
    at Balloon.BalloonTester.main(BalloonTester.java:19)
    Java Result: 1"

    Im getting extremely frustrated and just wondering why it wont work. I know i have something wrong, just not sure where.

    Please help. Thanks.

    Welcome to the forum! Please read this topic to learn how to post code in code or highlight tags and other useful info for new members.

    Please paste your code directly into a post between code or highlight tags explained near the top of the above link. Thanks for posting the entire error.

    The two files you attached are in different packages, one called "Balloon", the other the default or unnamed package. Try putting them both in the same package.

    You'll then have some undefined variables to take care of.

    Adding the package line to the other file fixed it! Thank you so much for the help. The last file we did in this class did not have a package line in either file, why did this one create it? Also, i was not supposed to edit the "Balloon" file, but I needed to so that the package line would make everything work. How can i fix this without adding that command?

    EDIT:::: Removed the package command from both, and it seems to work now, will report back if i have any problems. Thanks again!
