java - duplicate class

Question

Confused as to why I get duplicate class error for the following code?

/*
 * To change this template, choose Tools | Templates
 * and open the template in the editor.
 */
package database_console;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;


/**

public class DBConnect {

    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // TODO code application logic here
    }
}

Netbeans highlights DBConnect as red with duplicate class error.

Answer 1

This is a known issue with netbeans BUG 226360

it might help to clear Netbeans cache:

Go to Help -> About and you will see

Cache directory: PathoDirectory

Close NetBeans, go to specified directory and delete everything.
