How do i import AWT?

Question

Im teaching myself java and the book i'm looking at just got around to explaining AWT.

here is my source code:

java.awt.*

class obj
{
    public static void main (String[]arg)
    {
        Point blank; 
        blank = new Point (3,4) ; 
        int x = blank.x ;
        System.out.prinln (x) ; 
    }
}

here is the error i get while trying to compile it:

obj.java:1: 'class' or 'interface' expected
java.awt.*
^
1 error

What did i do wrong? / whats going wrong here?

Answer 1

You're missing import in the beginning:

import java.awt.*;

Answer 2

Don't concentrate on the fact that you are learning "awt". Remember your Java basics first and apply that knowledge to solve your problem.

the "awt" package is no different then any other package, you need an "import" statement.

Look at any other example in the book or forums to see how they are coded.

Answer 3

You need to use a import statement at the top like:

import java.awt.*;
