I am self-learning Java with the book "Thinking in java 4th Edition".
When i come to trying one example from the book, it gives compiler error.
https://github.com/BruceEckel/TIJ4-code/blob/master/examples/innerclasses/Parcel7.java
//: innerclasses/Parcel7.java
// Returning an instance of an anonymous inner class.
public class Parcel7 {
public Contents contents() {
return new Contents() { // Insert a class definition
private int i = 11;
public int value() { return i; }
}; // Semicolon required in this case
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Parcel7 p = new Parcel7();
Contents c = p.contents();
}
} ///:~

Do I miss anything?
This anonymous class declaration creates an anonymous class that is a sub-type of the class Contents
.
Looking at the error, I assume that you do not have a named class called Contents
defined anywhere. If you already have that class, then it may not have been imported properly.
