I tried running this code:

Java

public class HelloWorld {

public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World");
}

}

I clicked the "compile file" button and no problems appeared, but when I clicked on the "run application for current file" button, I got a pop-up that said: "The following file is missing class or inner class files: "C:\Users\Larry\Downloads\HelloWorld.java" Proceeding before correcting is not recommended." What should I do?

Solution 1

With few exceptions, Java expects a class to be contained in a file with exactly the same name as the class. For the code you describe here ("public class HelloWorld(...)"), the compiler wants it to be in a file HelloWorld.java. I suspect that is not the case...
