I am trying to run some java files in a new project So I make the project put the files in it and I try to run the main file so my game starts I get an error that says selection does not contain a main type I have tried several ways to run it Some say to launch eclipse again tried this a dozen times Somewhere else someone pointed to open a new project and make a build path to the old project Didn t work either I am pretty sure it must work because I ran it a few hours ago at school How do I get this working Thank you in advance

Error: Selection does not contain a main type

Right click on the folder where you put your main class then click on Build Path --> Use as Source Folder.

Finally run your main file as java application. Hope this problem will be solved.
