java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception
Hello. I'm having some issues with my code. When I try to execute it, it gives this exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Employee
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Employee
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java: 202)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launche r.java:301)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:2 47)
Because there is no line number, I cannot determine which line of code is giving the error. Is it because of something wrong in my code or my java environment? If so, how would I fix it. Thanks, my code is pasted below.
Code :
import java.util.Scanner;

//Constructor creates Employee object

if (status == "salaried") {
this.salary = salary;
if(bonusPay == true) {
salary = salary * 1.1;
}
} else {
this.rate = rate;
this.hours = hours;
if(hours > 40) { //calculates and adds overtime pay
weeklyPay = (hours - 40) * (2*(salary)) + 40 * salary;
} else {
weeklyPay = rate * hours;
}

:/ runs for me. Make sure you name the file correctly? Cap sensitive.
paste from my console
Code :
C:\sandbox>javac Employee.java

Still have problem. USing Eclipse IDE
Re: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception
I wish I could say there is nothing wrong with your code, the formatting was horrendous :-s .... anyways try copying your code into notepad then paste it back into your IDE (eclipse). You might have a blank space character that is throwing off the compiler. Or Simply copy and paste the formatted version of your code... I'm assuming you aren't finished with the code anyways.
Code java:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Employee {

{
if (status == "salaried")
{
this.salary = salary;
if(bonusPay == true)
{
salary = salary * 1.1;
}
}
else
{
this.rate = rate;
this.hours = hours;
if(hours > 40)
{
//calculates and adds overtime pay
weeklyPay = (hours - 40) * (2*(salary)) + 40 * salary;
}
else
{
weeklyPay = rate * hours;

Re: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception
Not directly related to your problem, as it sounds like an IDE issue that is oftentimes hard to remotely diagnose, but never use == to compare the content of a String...use the equals() method.
