> Howdie All.

> I have jdk1.3 installed on my Windows system.

> Recently purchased Bruce Eckel's book Thinking In Java.
> Downloaded programs off of CDROM (included with book).
> Bruce Eckel's example uses packages which he developed.

> When I compile the Bruce Eckels's java source code examples
> which include "import com.bruceeckel.swing.*" or "package
> com.bruceeckel.swing", I get compilation error that reads
> "package com.bruceeckel.swing does not exist". It, of course,
> does in fact exist, but ... compiler cannot find it ... so

> my Question - Which folder/directory should I move bruceeckel's
> package to in the jdk1.3? Intuitively (at least to me) I'm not
> sure where I should place it in order to reconcile compilation
> error.

> Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions/help.
