I created a program, which I will include the source below with a problem. It appears to compile fine, but I get an error when I try to run it. The error is: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main." What does this error mean?

you forgot the main method:

public static void main(String[] args)
{
}

Do you mean that I have to call this or what? Because I have it defined and it calls the USD_Menu. (I'm confused).

it's not static.

It MUST have the exact signature:

public static void main(String[] args) //you can call the string array whatever
{
}

I first changed main to be static and it said that USD_Menu needed to be static too. I then changed USD_Menu too, but it now says that non-static variables can't be referenced from a static context.

Hi everyone,

See what you did.
Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  
  2. public void main (String[] arguments) throws IOException 
  3. { 
  4. USD_Menu();
  5. }

Do this instead(call it at the end of the class)

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  
  2. public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException 
  3. { 
  4. CurrencyConv1 a = new CurrencyConv1();
  5. a.USD_Menu();
  6. }

From what i see you do not have the very basic understanding of Java but
don't worry too much about it.

I suggest you go to sun's site and download the awt tutorial and learn the basics from there and you will realize that you will understand certain concepts easier.

Yours Sincerely

Richard West

Did you happen to copy my program into a source editor and try to compile it yourself? I am getting a lot more errors than before. (Too Many to mention here).

You really need to work on how it's written.

Maybe if I have time I'll look at it, but right now I don't.
