Hello Java!

I have :
- Two Classes in a Java Application : Person & Task
- In the Person class code : I instantiate Task Class

I use command line style to compile and run the app ( Please DO Not Ask me to use
an IDE / I am trying to learn how things work in the background )

I have set the Class Path and it works

I compiled the Task class without any problem

I complied the Person class without The code that instantiates the Task Class and it works

I tried to compile the Person class again BUT "with the Code that instantiates the Task Class" and : IT DOESN'T WORK :(

Here is the Error message : cannot find symbol
Task myTask = new Task();
symbol : class Task
location : class Person

BOTH CLASSES ARE IN THE SAME FOLDER !

Where is the problem then : DO I miss some concept in java Compilation and directory Organization ?

Update 1 :

Where should I put my Task.class File after compiling Task.java So that It could be accessible and visible by the Person class ?

In my Path Class I mention only the Jar Files I need to use.

What I have tried:

I tried :

- Using package
- Not using package
- Add a constructor to the Task Class
- Delete the main method from Task class

- I respect the convention of naming classes and constructors in Java
