Java Cannot instantiate the type Module (Not Abstract Class)

Question

I'm having issues compiling my code. eclipse gives me this error code:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems: 
Cannot instantiate the type Module
Cannot instantiate the type Module

at Model.AddModule(Model.java:214)

And here's my module code:

private String[] students = new String[0];

public Module (){};

public Module(String c, String[] s) {
    Code=c;
    students=s;
}

    Code=module.getCode();
    students=module.getStudents();
}
public String[] getStudents() {
    return students;
}
public String getCode() {
    return Code;
}
public void addThisStudent(Student s) {
    AddStudent(s.getUID());
}

public String toString(Model mod) {
    String studentString ="";
    if (students.length == 0) {
        studentString = "\n   No Students";
    }else {
        for (int i=0;i<students.length;i++) {
            Student s = mod.findAStudent(students[i]);
            if (s!=null) {
                studentString += "\n   "+s.toString();
            }
        }
    }
    return Code + studentString;
}
private void AddStudent(String UIDToAdd) {
    int length = students.length;
    String NewArray[]=new String[students.length+1];
    for (int i=0;i<length;i++) {
        NewArray[i] = students[i];
    }
    NewArray[length] = UIDToAdd;
    students = NewArray.clone();
}
}

I honestly have no idea why this is happening. I've googled my error before and I only found issues that involved abstract classes.

Answer 1

You are importing the wrong Module - you are importing:

import com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.server.Module;

You need to import your own Module.

Answer 2

That's because your imported "com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.server.Module" in your Model class. Try taking that out and importing your.package.Module instead.
