Beginning Java 2 SDK 1.4 Edition
There doesn't seem to be a forum for the above captioned book. I posted the message printed below and received no replies.
I am very disappointed to find a material error, or what seems to pass for one, as early as chapter two since the subject hasn't started to become complex. As Mr. Horton suggests, I am willing to do the work, but I do require clear, accurate teaching for my effort to bear fruit.
Yours,

----------------------
I have successfully installed and set-up the j2sdk 1.4 (standard edition), on my SuSE Linux 9.0 box, including the business of exporting the path to the Java compiler and other binaries.
My problem comes in running the Fruit.java class on p. 48. The system doesn't seem to recogize the statement:
import java.io.IOException;
It also doesn't recognize the -ea compiler tag to enable assertions as the text says it should.
Can anyone help me out on this. I've looked for the location for the IOException classes and cannot find them.
Many thanks in advance,
Steve
