    Default Bracket placement issues

    My code isn't running and I know I have brackets in the wrong places.

     import java.util.Calendar;
     
    public class Date {
     
    private int month;
    private int day;
    private int year;
     
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    public Date( int theMonth, int theDay, int theYear )
    {
    month = checkMonth( theMonth );
    year = checkYear( theYear );
    day = checkDay( theDay );
    System.out.printf(
    "Date object constructor for date %s\n", toString() );
    }
    private int checkYear( int testYear )
    {
    if ( testYear > 0 )
    return testYear;
    else 
    {
    System.out.printf(
    "Invalid year (%d) set to 1.\n", testYear );
    return 1;
    }
    }
    private int checkMonth( int testMonth )
    {
    if ( testMonth > 0 && testMonth <= 12 )
    return testMonth;
    else 
    {
    System.out.printf(
    "Invalid month (%d) set to 1.\n", testMonth );
    return 1;
    }
    }
    private int checkDay( int testDay )
    {
    int daysPerMonth[] =
     
    { 0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31 };
     
    if ( testDay > 0 && testDay <= daysPerMonth[ month ] )
    return testDay;
    if ( month == 2 && testDay == 29 && ( year % 400 == 0 ||
    ( year % 4 == 0 && year % 100 != 0 ) ) )
    return testDay;
     
    System.out.printf( "Invalid day (%d) set to 1.\n", testDay );
    return 1;
    }
    public void nextDay()
    {
    int testDay = day + 1;
     
    if ( checkDay( testDay ) == testDay )
    day = testDay;
    else
    {
    day = 1;
    nextMonth();
    }
    }
    public void nextMonth()
    {
    if ( 12 == month )
    year++;
     
    month = month % 12 + 1;
    }
    public String toString()
    {
    return String.format( "%d/%d/%d", month, day, year );
    }
    }
    }
    class DateTest
    {
    public static void main( String args[] )
    {
    System.out.println( "Checking increment" );
    Date testDate = new Date( 03, 13, 2011 );
     
    for ( int counter = 0; counter < 3; counter++ )
    {
    testDate.nextDay();
    System.out.printf( "Incremented Date: %s\n",
    testDate.toString() );
    }
    }
    }

    There looks like there are quite a few errors in your code including a misplaced constructor.
    I'm glad you have figured it out.. Let us know if you need anything else.
