Workspace is not compiling

My workspace is not compiling I copied all code exactly except for wording of the tweet which I didn't think would affect results. Is there somewhere where I have gone wrong with the code?

After following your link, I see an empty Treet class. Is that what I'm supposed to see? If so, it compiles for me. But, on the other hand, in the case that your link is bad, can you copy and paste your code here?

Hi Sue, the code that is in the screen grab is all that I have. Are you saying it compiled for you?

Just in case, this is Treet.java

package com.teamtreehouse;

public class Treet {

}

and this is example.java

import com.teamtreehouse.Treet;

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        Treet treet = new Treet();
        System.out.printf("This is a new Treet: %s %n", treet);

    }
}

Great!

But it should have compiled before with only the code you had. The output would have been the result of Java Object's toString() method since you had not yet overridden it. Maybe it was a bug in your workspace?

Anyway, I'm glad it worked out.
