Yeah, it's just the antivirus program...VirusScan Console. Damn, I should have kept records of what I did to fix it last year.

I have McAfee, but that's required by my school's connection software also...I somehow fixed it last semester using a process that did not involve getting rid of any third part firewalls. ...

I am required to use windows firewall in order to connect to the internet through my school's network, but when I try to turn it on the application screen for it is all greyed out. I have tried...

The n in the parenthesis is exclusive...so say you put in 6, you have a random number between 1 and 5. I found this out on the sun microsystems webpage for java :-D

actually, that makes sense...putting in the Object's name rather than just putting in 'Object'. But now the problem that I fixed by using generics in the first place is happening again...I get an...

Ok, this first bit of code compiles with no problem, I'm just showing it so you can see that the objects all implement comparable:

package org.cadenhead.ecommerce;

import java.util.*;

public...

Ok, I figured it out...the upper bound 'n' in the nextInt(int n) is exclusive so I didn't neet n - 1, just n.

I wrote above "never get anything above 10"

however, I most definitely meant to write "never get anything above 9"

sorry for any confusion.

Welcome, buddy! I'm sure you'll enjoy posting on these forums, they definitely seem very friend in my experience. If you ever need any help with software development or web design I'll do what I...

I'm trying to write a class that randomly generates a number, emulating a dice roll. It runs from the command line (since I have yet to learn any other way of getting user input) taking the number...

While I have yet to attempt such a feat, I can imagine it being done with a specialized device attached to the handlebars to hold the book open whilst pedaling and steering...very carefully, of...

I keep getting this error message whenever I try to compile a certain class or any classes that use this class:

C:\J21work>javac GiftShop.java...

Hmm, I have been messing with security settings in IE on my computer to try to get that page cannot be displayed message but have thus far been unsuccessful.

Here's a link to a page that may be...

Thank you most kindly for that help! I just now implemented the use of generics and eliminated those two errors. Now there's one last error which I believe I will be able to resolve shortly through...

Ok, now we're getting somewhere...last time I tried putting the import statements in the Item.java file which really doesn't make much sense since I'd be trying to import a file to itself...dumb. ...

Hey buddy, welcome to these most excellent forums! I, too, am also a new member, as well. I hope this place works out well for the both of us!

While you are probably more tech saavy than me, I...

But, but...my aim is to dominate the earth, not decimate it! I only wish to rule over all people on earth so that I may utilize them for manual labor in implimenting my other various schemes. But,...

Not currently, but I have tried that a few times:

import org.warren.ecommerce.*;
import org.warren.ecommerce.Item.java;

Is that the correct way to import packages and specific classes?

Dude, that's awesome...uh, what kind of code was that? I'd like to learn something nerdy like that.

Yes, the Item class compiled successfully--there is an Item.java and an Item.class. They also happen to be in the same package, with the code

package org.warren.ecommerce;

on the first line of...
