In Eclipse java systax not showing ???

But it is not showing in my eclipse as red crossed dot.

Thanks,
Venkat.

can you post the code snippet.

It may not be trying to build at all then. Check the project is in the build path

Are we talking about Eclipse or MyEclipse?  2 different programs.

;JOOP!

are you writing the java code in jsp, then editor will not show the error.

when you created the project, what type of wizard have you selected?
if it is not of java type then it will not show the compilation error.

hi expertmb..
I did not written the java code in jsp...just i written in Hello world program in java only.

Thanks,
Venkat.

are you sure you are writing your code in a 'Class'

ramareddyj, please show your program.

;JOOP!

Hi my program is like this...

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager

import org.jdom.Element;

public class DBConnection
{
    public static Connection getConnection(Element params) {
        return getConnection(params, null);
    }

    public static Connection getConnection(Element params, String[] args) {

        String sDBHost = null;
        String sDBSID = null;
        String sDBUser = null;
        String sDBPassword = null;

        if( args == null ) {
            sDBHost = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBHost", params);
            sDBSID = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBSID", params);
            sDBUser = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBUser", params);
            sDBPassword = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBPassword",
                                                        params);
           
        }
        else {
            sDBHost = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBHost", params, args);
            sDBSID = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBSID", params, args);
            sDBUser = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBUser", params, args);
            sDBPassword = XMLUtils.getSingularNodeValue("DBPassword",
                                                        params, args);
        }
        Connection conn = null;

        try
        {
            if ((sDBHost == null) || (sDBSID == null) ||
                    (sDBUser == null) || (sDBPassword == null))
            {
                return null;
            }

            String connectionString =
                "jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(HOST=" + sDBHost +
                 ")(PROTOCOL=tcp)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=" + sDBSID +
                 ")))";
            DriverManager.registerDriver(
                    new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
            System.out.println("Venkat here......................................")
            conn = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionString, sDBUser,
                                               sDBPassword);

            conn.setAutoCommit(false);

            return conn;
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
          System.out.println(e);
            return null;
        }
}


in this program...
I put it in one SOP..But  I did not closed with the semicolon....
than I saved the program..But it is not showing compilation error.

Regards,
Venkat.

perhaps DBConnection.java is not added as source folder

Another thing to keep in mind - the project in which you are writing these classes should be java project.

Hi Ajay..
I put it in this Java project only !!!!!!!!!!!!
This java file is there in source folder .........
Thanks,
Venkat.

I have put your code into a JAVA project under ECLIPSE 3.2 and I get 15 errors for not having the
proper imports handy AND .......................
I get a red mark on
            System.out.println("Venkat here......................................")
"saying: syntax error, insert ";" to complete the statement"

Is this your first JAVA project with ECLIPSE?

;JOOP!

I am not new with java/Eclipse..
..am working from last 3 yrs on words....
But today I got this issue...from morning onwords..I didn't get this issue..
That's y I posted...

Thanks,
Venkat.

can you post the content of .classpath file under the project root folder?

is this problem only with this project??
can you run programs from other projects?

Hi My .classpath file is like this..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<classpath>
      <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/>
      <classpathentry kind="output" path="bin"/>
</classpath>

Thanks,
venkat.

You do NOT anything declared as source folder!

<<
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<classpath>
     <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/>
     <classpathentry kind="output" path="bin"/>
</classpath>
<<

As i mentioned, if you add it to your sourcepath you will get the required entries in your sourcepath

DO NOT edit the .classpath file directly
