What is wrong?

Challenge task 4 of 4 gives me a compiler error. Something is wrong with my new blog post object.

com/example/BlogPost.java 
package com.example;

public BlogPost {

}
Display.java 
import com.example.BlogPost;

public class Display {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // Your code here...
    BlogPost post = new BlogPost();
    System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s", post);

  }
}

Hey Mark,

The error you're receiving is telling you that BlogPost must be a class, interface, or an enum. In this case, you're just creating a class. So, make sure to use the class keyword when setting up BlogPost.

package com.example;

public class BlogPost {

}
