I've downloaded and compiled the Q.java and executed the resulting
Test class but I've got no NPE.
Could you please attach the NPE stacktrace to the issue? Thanks.

Comment 5 johnzoet 2003-04-23 22:30:41 UTC 
This problem happens whenever the source file name is not the same as
the name of the executable.
For example a source file with several package level classes, one of
them has the public main method.
Comment 6 Miloslav Metelka 2003-04-28 09:20:55 UTC 
Thank you for the NPE.
Reassigning to core.
