Tutorial issue

Ok, so I'm stuck on the Eclipse tutorial. I have a number of other projects running in Eclipse right now, so I created the new project as specified in Step 1

The only thing I did differently was in steps two and three I used the source folder "Tutorial/src" which is what I used to create the project in Step 1;

Here's the output;

Exception in thread "main" [ObjectDB 2.5.4_04] javax.persistence.PersistenceException

As the error message indicates you have two different entity classes with the same name:

• point.Point
• tutorial.Point

Remove one of them from your project and start with a new empty database.

Looking through the code, there is no other 'point' declared. I deleted the db and reran, success this time. Strange

There was probably another Point class previously and the database had a memory of it.

By starting with a new database that memory was erased.

Anyway, good that it works now, and unless you move the Point class, this error should not return.
