Simple, yet frustrating error

    hLine.java:12: cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : constructor Shape (int,int,java.awt.Color)
    location: class Shape
    super(sY, eY, color );


    This error keeps coming up in my code for vLine and hLine. They are part of a hierarchy where draw > shape > line +vLine + hLine etc. What I was trying to do was specify a simple draw vertical and draw horizontal line into the CAD package to add more options while drawing. Unfortunately the code doesnt seem to work and I have copied the vLine and Hline straight from the Line code (which compiles and runs although always does so from the top left hand corner of the drawing board almost as if it is set there which afaik it is'nt) only taking out the "sX and eX" which are the variables for the vertical movement. By doing this i thought i could I implement a simple variation of the class line so that when the user clicks on the button they can chose to draw v. lines or h. lines and no matter where the drag from the mouse functions would only pick out the change in horizontal or vertical position.

    Sorry to ramble but if anyone can help i would be most appreciated.

    Any chance that we can see the offending code ?

    No, he's expecting us to use telepathy.
