I created one source file named 'Beverage.java' as follows :

// Beverage.java

class Beverage // default access and is in the current working directory(package)
{

}

It compiled fine.

But ,

// Tea.java

class Tea extends Beverage // also default access and is in the current working directory(package)
{
}

When this Tea.java file is compiled , it is giving an error that " Cannot find class Beverage " . Why it is so , even they are in same package(current default package).

two quick ones:

1) your classes DO NOT BELONG TO ANY PACKAGE, there is no "package" designation in your sources
2) they should compile ok. check CLASSPATH env variable, if not set or not there, ensure it contains the "." directory.

Thank you.....

I got it resolved by ensuring CLASSPATH include "." directory.
