Hello everyone,

I hope this is rather simple, but I am getting a strange error in code.  I have two classes, one calls the other to return a string.  It is very simple code:

public class returnList
{
	public String[] returnList()
	{
		String lStr = "hello";
		String [] lRetStr = new String[1];
		lRetStr[0] = lStr;
		return lRetStr;
	}

}


AND

//import java.sql.*;
//import org.gjt.mm.mysql.*;

public class test_db
{
	public static void main(String[] Args)
	{
		returnList lList = new returnList();
		String lStr[] = lList.returnList();
		System.out.println(lStr[0]);
	}
}

When I  -      javac returnList.java
it compiles just fine.

When I -       javac test_db.java

I get:
test_db.java:8:cannot resolve symbol
symbol   :  class  returnList
Loction  :  class  test_db
                 returnList lList = new returnList();
                ^

This code compiles just fine in Windows.  I assume that I am missing a library or that I have not installed a package.

Can anyone give me a hand with this?

Thanks for your help,

Jim
