Question

Ok, I am working on an assignment for school, and I set up my main class and also another class called Transaction. In my main class I have:

Transaction t = new Transaction();

And Transaction is underlined: it says that the constructor undefined. WHY?!

The Transaction class looks like this:

public class Transaction {

private String customerNumber, fName, lName, custAddress, custCity;
private int custZip, custPhone;

/** Constructor*/
public Transaction(String a, String b, String c, String d, String e, int f, int g){
    this.customerNumber = a;
this.fName = b;
this.lName =c;
this.custAddress = d;
this.custCity = e;

}

It looks like it should just work, but it’s just not. Even when I plug in a bunch of variables into where I make the new Transaction object in main, it still says undefined. Somebody please help!

Answer 1

There is no default constructor definition in your class.

When you provide the definition of at least one parameterized constructor the compiler no longer provides you the default constructor.
