    Greetings!!

    I'm in a situation!!,where I've been given the complete code of the product that I'm currently working on and have been asked to fix a defect(please note that I've no prior experience in developement/bug fixing).I understand that this needs me to know the flow of the code.Can you please provide suggestions/information on how do I proceed further in learning the code flow on my own.

    Any tip/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Default Re: Help in learning code flow!!!-please help

    Hello tj23 and welcome to the Java Programming Forums.

    Java is an object oriented language so the code flow differs from a procedural language like Visual Basic 6.

    There are some exceptions but Java code will always start from the Main method. For example,

    public static void main (String[] args){
    //Starting code here..
    }

    If you use this as your starting point then you should be able to see what methods are called from here and work out the code flow.
