Hello ,
would you like cast a coursory glance at my probleme please, and
consider to give some advice that bids some issue me to ustruck.
I had to endure a failure again with FC 4 distr. as I was trying compile
an introductory file necessaire to further studies.
Preliminaries:
Having the intent to get a tutorial I loaded down from website
http://math.hws.edu/javanotes Java 5.0 tutorial and in a separate
directory all the accessory files in order to follow the demonstrated
discipline id.e.programming Java.
As I get along in may study the tutorial suggested as follows:
Try on command line type java -version et
javac -version.
Both of them gave me positive response with a disclaimer from the party
of Red Hat against all faillure may the user occur.
Next it told me to copy the TextIO.java source file from the source
directory of the aforesaide Web site in my own home or newly established
javawork directory. Thereafter I had to type in order to compile the
source file on the command line:
# javac TextIO.java
in order to achieve a binary library for the further studies in
demonstrating the tought programming. But my attempt result this time
(too) in ERROR as follows:
Gyurka@bakacs ~]$ cd ./javawork
[Gyurka@bakacs javawork]$ javac TextIO.java
----------
1. ERROR in TextIO.java
(at line 4)

(at line 867)
integerMatcher.region(pos,buffer.length());
^^^^^^

7 problems (7 errors)[Gyurka@bakacs javawork]$
Unfortunately this library-file (TextIO.) is so crutial in further
experiments set aside that I am temporarily struck with all possible
experimanting with my subject that I hardly can do without it.
I should very graceful to anybody who could me lending some helping
issue.
best regards George Szára

/**
* TextIO provides a set of static methods for reading and writing text. By default, it reads
* from standard input and writes to standard output, but it is possible to redirect the input
* and output to files or to other input and output streams. When the standard input and output
* streams are being used, the input methods will not produce an error; instead, the user is
* repeatedly prompted for input until a legal input is entered. (If standard input has been
* changed externally, as by file redirection on the command line, this is not a reasonable
* behavior; to handle this case, TextIO will give up after 10 consecutive illegal inputs and
* will throw an IllegalArgumentException.) For the most part, any other
* error will be translated into an IllegalArguementException.
* <p>For writing to standard output, the output methods in this class pretty much
* duplicate the functionality of System.out, and System.out can be used interchangeably with them.
* <p>This class does not use optimal Java programming practices. It is designed specifically to be easily
* usable even by a beginning programmer who has not yet learned about objects and exceptions. Therefore,
* everything is in a single source file that compiles into a single class file, all the methods are
* static methods, and none of the methods throw exceptions that would require try...catch statements.
* Also for this reason, all exceptions are converted into IllegalArgumentExceptions, even when this
* exception type doesn't really make sense.
* <p>This class requires Java 5.0 or higher. (A previous version of TextIO required only Java 1.1;
* this version should work with any source code that used the previous version, but it has some new
* features, including the type of formatted output that was introduced in Java 5 and the ability to
* use files and streams.
