Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem: at Addr

[erin.ctm]

Hi,
i am a novice, taking a Java class required for my degree (doesnt involve programming for a living). I am getting these errors with this class. Any idea why? Thanks in advance!

1. System.out. line(last line) giving me error to delete the “(“.
2. Getting this error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem:
at Address.main(Address.java:5)

package useful;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Address
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); }

private String fullName;
private String street;
private String city;
private String state;
private String zip;

public static final String EOL_STRING =
System.getProperty("line.separator");
public static final String SPACE = " ";

public String getFullName(){ return fullName; }
public String getStreet(){ return street; }
public String getCity(){ return city; }
public String getZip(){ return zip; }
public String getState(){ return state; }


public String getFullAddress(){
return street + city + SPACE + state + SPACE + zip + EOL_STRING;
}

public void setFullName(String newFullName){ fullName = newFullName; }
public void setStreet(String newStreet){ street = newStreet; }
public void setCity(String newCity){ city = newCity; }
public void setState(String newState){ state = newState; }
public void setZip(String newZip){ zip = newZip; }

System.out.println(fullName, street, city, state, zip);
}

    System.out.println(fullName, street, city, state, zip);

The println( ... ) method takes one argument at most; you are supplying five of them. Change that to:

    System.out.println(fullNamë+" "+street+" "+city+" "+state+" "+zip);

and never, ever try to run that didn't compile successfully; the JVM will notice it and throws a runtime error.

thanks for the fast response! I still get a syntax error, with System.out.println in
System.out.println(fullName + " " + street + " " + city + " " + state + " " + zip);


and a Unresolved compilation problem with

is a Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

I know I'm a novice but it looks like I changed either of these lines, I'd mess them up. Java is confusing sometimes!

thanks for the fast response! I still get a syntax error, with System.out.println in
System.out.println(fullName + " " + street + " " + city + " " + state + " " + zip);

What exactly was the compiler trying to tell you? Reading such messages can be usefull.

kind regards,

see my comment in your code

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Address 
{   public static void main(String[] args) 
    {   Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); 
    }

    private String fullName;
    private String street;
    private String city;
    private String state;
    private String zip;

    public static final String EOL_STRING =
    System.getProperty("line.separator");
    public static final String SPACE = " ";

    public String getFullName(){ return fullName; }
    public String getStreet(){ return street; }
    public String getCity(){ return city; }
    public String getZip(){ return zip; }
    public String getState(){ return state; }


    public String getFullAddress(){
    return street + city + SPACE + state + SPACE + zip + EOL_STRING;
    }

    public void setFullName(String newFullName){ fullName = newFullName; }
    public void setStreet(String newStreet){ street = newStreet; }
    public void setCity(String newCity){ city = newCity; }
    public void setState(String newState){ state = newState; }
    public void setZip(String newZip){ zip = newZip; }

    System.out.println(fullName, street, city, state, zip);// [b]this line is not placed in method or anything.[/b]
}

ADD:
This is correct

public class Trial
{   public Trial()
    {   System.out.println("Is it working?");
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {   Trial trial = new Trial();
    }
}

This is no good.

public class Trial
{   
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {   Trial trial = new Trial();
    }
    
    System.out.println("Is it working?");
}

EDIT #2: I did not try to run it, just want to give you an idea what is the error you are receiving

[JosAH]

public class Trial
{   
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {   Trial trial = new Trial();
    }
    
    System.out.println("Is it working?");
}

Look where you put that statement: it's outside of the body of the main( ... ) method. Move it between those curly brackets.

Exactly, that is the thread starter's error. That is what I am trying to point out to OP.
