Java error: Found interface … but class was expected

Question

I am getting a strange runtime error from my code:

\"Found interface [SomeInterface] but class was expected\"

How can this happen? How can an i

Answer 1

It sounds like you did

class MyClass extends SomeInterface

when it should actually be

class MyClass implements SomeInterface

Am I right?

EDIT: Oh, you say it's a runtime error and not a compile-time error? Let me look around a bit...

EDIT 2: It looks like Jared has the correct answer. Anyway, trying to extend an interface would actually give a "no interface expected here" message at compile time, not a "found interface but class was expected" error.
