Question

This is the code I’m using to load an image called “boat.png”

@Override
public void paint(Graphics g) {
    BufferedImage img = null;
    try {
       img = ImageIO.read(new File("boat.png"));
       } catch (IOException e) {
           System.out.println("Can't load the image");
    }
}

These two lines generate errors

BufferedImage img = null;
img = ImageIO.read(new File("boat.png"));

Although I’ve included

import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;

Please help me find the error !!

Answer 1

The ImageIO class is in the javax.imageio package.

Try importing that package:

import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
