Sorry guys I am new to Java and I have an issue with my code. I have read through the threads and have seen many examples regarding this specific error (java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main Exception in thread "main")
. I just cant seem to wrap my head around where I would add (static void main(String[] args)
) to the code. If you guys can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Here is what I have:
public class Employee {
String name;
String department;
double hourlyRate;
Employee(String name, String department, double hourlyRate) {
this.name = name;
this.department = department;
this.hourlyRate = hourlyRate;
}
public void setDepartment(String department) {
this.department = department;
}
public void setHourlyRate(double hourlyRate) {
this.hourlyRate = hourlyRate;
}
public String getNameAndDepartment() {
return name + " " + department;
}
double weeklyPay(int numOfHourWorked) {
if (numOfHourWorked < 40) {
return (numOfHourWorked * hourlyRate);
} else
return (40 * hourlyRate);
}
}
class UnionEmployee extends Employee {
double dues;
UnionEmployee(String name, String department, double hourlyRate, double dues) {
super(name, department, hourlyRate);
this.dues = dues;
}
public void setDues(double dues) {
this.dues = dues;
}
double weeklyPay(int numOfHourWorked) {
if (numOfHourWorked <= 40) {
return (super.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
} else
return ((super.weeklyPay(40) + ((numOfHourWorked - 40) * hourlyRate * 1.5)) - dues);
}
}
class CommissionEmployee extends Employee {
double commisionRate;
double salesAmount;
CommissionEmployee(String name, String department, double hourlyRate) {
super(name, department, hourlyRate);
}
public void setCommisionRate(double commisionRate) {
this.commisionRate = commisionRate;
}
public void setSalesAmount(double salesAmount) {
this.salesAmount = salesAmount;
}
double weeklyPay(int numOfHourWorked) {
return (super.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked) + (commisionRate * salesAmount));
}
}
class TestEmployee {
UnionEmployee uEmp = new UnionEmployee(null, null, 0, 0);
CommissionEmployee cEmp = new CommissionEmployee(null, null, 0);
Employee emp = new Employee(null, null, 0);
void display(Employee emp, int numOfHourWorked) {
System.out.println("Name and department :" + emp.getNameAndDepartment ());
System.out.println("Weekly pay of employee :"
+ emp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
}
void display(UnionEmployee uEmp, CommissionEmployee cEmp,
int numOfHourWorked) {
System.out.println("Weekly Pay for UnionEmployee"
+ uEmp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
System.out.println("Weekly Pay for UnionEmployee"
+ cEmp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
}
}
OK so I started by separating each class into a different file. In looking through the Java tutorials it said to add static void main(String[] args) the way the tutorial had it setup was like this:
public class Misc {
static void main(String[] args) {
//body
}
}
So I did this:
class TestEmployee {
static void main(String[] args) {
UnionEmployee uEmp = new UnionEmployee(null, null, 0, 0);
CommissionEmployee cEmp = new CommissionEmployee(null, null, 0);
Employee emp = new Employee(null, null, 0);
void display(Employee emp, int numOfHourWorked) {
System.out.println("Name and department :" + emp.getNameAndDepartment ());
System.out.println("Weekly pay of employee :"
+ emp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
}
void display(UnionEmployee uEmp, CommissionEmployee cEmp,
int numOfHourWorked) {
System.out.println("Weekly Pay for UnionEmployee"
+ uEmp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
System.out.println("Weekly Pay for UnionEmployee"
+ cEmp.weeklyPay(numOfHourWorked));
}
}
}
Still get the same error : (java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main Exception in thread "main").
OK I add public but now I get this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
