Getting errors on the console after saving the work.

Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m

If you are using a workspace can you post a snapshot? Click the camera icon in the upper right corner, then 'Take Snapshot', then post the link created here.

To clarify my answer here is the link to the video. Anyone on the forum can load the workspace and try:

clear && javac Treestory.java && java Treestory

in the console and receive the same results that fahamida did. Try:

clear && javac TreeStory.java && java TreeStory

as shown @3:48 in the video and you'll have better success.

Hardly worth a down vote but in the future for fahamida or anyone else, post a link to the challenge or video you are talking about and in most cases post your code. Better yet if you are using a workspace post a snapshot. In this case since the file name is the issue a snapshot would be best.

Try with an uppercase S in TreeStory (both instances). That is the case in the video's workspace.
