Hello adi,
I think the problem is with the classpath
just try this

java -classpath . ReadWriteFile.java

assuming you have both the classes in present dir and used default package
Hope it helps

Dear Friends,

Please don't use such chum up greetings.

Experienced programmers will never claim absolute perfection for any
non-trivial piece of code.

This stuff is so old, it already smells. Sun doesn't provide a public
version of 1.0 any more, and they don't maintain 1.1 and 1.2 any more
(end-of-life status, no bug fixes, no security fixes, etc.).

As for downloading the smelly stuff, use the first drop-down box on

http://java.sun.com/downloads/

Downloads might be a little bit slow these days, since Sun just put out
new 1.3 and 1.4 versions with something like eight security fixes. But
even these are old. You might want to try 1.5 aka 5.0, or even the beta
1.6 aka 6.0.

Please don't use such chum up greetings.

I notice that people from Italy and India always start posts by saying
"my name is x" sometimes with a bit of background information about
them.

I remember doing business in India and Indonesia. It would be
unthinkable not to become acquainted first. To them, we must seem
rude launching into our problems or the net without any introductions.

One of my peeves is perfunctory thank yous, especially a whole post
containing nothing but a thank-you, but I realise in most cultures
they are required. I figure they should be used sparingly so that
when they come they have meaning.
