Thank you for your answer. I have more doubt.Let assume both files
are placed inside a directry as a package.
Consider this
This is first file
pacakge package1;
public class Box {
public Box(int a, int b){
int len = a;
int wid = b;
}
}
I stored this file in package1 directry
Then next file is

package package1;
public class Test {
Box box= new Box(2,4);

}
I stored this also in package1 directry. Then I compile first one
no error message.But when compiling second one the error message is
"class package2.Box not found".Here also same message.But when I remove
package statement from both files that means both files are in default
package, no error message
I couln't find the reason. If you know please tell me
Thank you
