Seems like some configuration error.
Passing to java for further evaluation.

Comment 3 Martin Matula 2004-11-19 23:22:08 UTC

The problem is in the old error underlining. It is most likely some
kind of configuration error - the rt.jar seems to be missing from the
bootclasspath of the compiler. Perhaps this is because of one of the
modules installed in addition to the standard NB 3.6 distribution
(such as WTK21?).
Anyway, the configuration and errors underlining was rewritten in 4.0,
so this issue should not be relevant for NB 4.0.
