Creating a new class instance from a servlet

[Damo]

Hi,
I have a servlet and and trying to instantiate a class in the servlet.
I'm using the following code:
engine e = new engine();
The engine class compiles without error but when i compile the servlet
i get 2 errors from this line cannot find symbol. Anyone know what the
problem might be?
Thanks

Did you import the correct package? Is the class accessible to the
servlet?

the servlet is in the classes folder in a package called Search and the
class i'm trying to instantiate is in Search.model , but it cant find
it. i am importing the search.model folder

try this:

Search.model.engine e = new Search.model.engine();

and make sure Search.model.engine class is there in runtime CLASSPATH.
hope it helps.

This is a compile time, not a runtime error, right?

Engine e = new Engine(); ?

Just a guess, since you didn't post the error message.

Thanks
