Question 135236 in Visual Studio Code Question posted in
View the official documentation.

How do I create packages in Visual Studio Code that will handle my Java dependencies?

I am working with objects and creating constructors such as this:

Employee employee1 = new Employee();

When I go to run each individual constructor, I get this error:

Employee cannot be resolved to a type

My instructor informed me that this error had to do with Visual Studio Code and having to create packages within the project. I scoured the internet for tips on how to do this and even attempted to use Maven to set up the project but I was unable to produce any results thus far.

    Solved!

    I just had to open my classes/methods along with my driver, which was the code I had in the example.

    Hope that clears things up for anyone having the same issue.

    Use an IDE that is more aligned to Java such as Eclipse or Apache Netbeans and create a self contained project within there. Visual Studio Code is a glorified text editor with a million plugins of varying quality. Jack of all trades, master of none etc.

    Choose the right tools for the job rather than trying to hammer a nail into the wall with a shoe.

    First you have to create a class to represent Employee, and inside of the class you will have your public constructor, like this:

    public class Employee {
    // class members
    public Employee() {
    // constructor code
    }
}

    From here you will be able to call the public constructor for the Employee class like so:

    Employee employee1 = new Employee();
