Description _ gtzabari 2002-12-01 23:14:32 UTC 
dev build 200211290100

   Using the internal Java compiler I try to
compile a file containing:

public class someName extends net.jxta.PeerGroupID

   and I get a "package net.jxta does not exist"
compilation error.

   This message is actually incorrect. Package
net.jxta *does* exist, but there is no
"PeerGroupID" class within it.

And what message do you get, when you use 
javac? Thanks
