Declare a static field in the comment (top-level) class, not in CommentsExample.

Don't declare greeting as static.

Indent your code, btw, or use [code] tags when posting on the forum so whitespace won't get lost.

Also, are you sure you need to comment that heavily? Even for an example...

I'm not totally up to snuff on Java 5 but when I tried your information it did compile but I got a runtime exception.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main

I'm pretty sure I have my classpath set right. I might be doing something wrong here but figured this info might help.

Static class is a new feature of java 5. i think you should post error message.
You can get many java tutorials from www.developerzone.biz and www.javaworld.com.

Good Resource found
