I must be missing something major. The screen shot plainly shows that I'm using 
Apache NetBeans 11.1 with Ant. Normally, I would think that I've done something 
wrong, because I learned sometime around 1965 that computers and well-vetted 
tools rarely make mistakes. Since this isn't my first rodeo, I tend to think 
that something about the automatic class creation logic is mismatched with the 
build environment -- probably because I installed the wrong version of 
something through ignorance.

Hopefully, you'll accept a friendly suggestion about how to provide tech 
support and/or volunteer help: it never hurts to assume that you're dealing 
with an accurate report of a problem from someone who is missing a crucial 
piece of information that experienced users possess. In my salad days, I used 
to send academic users out of the assistance office to lookup something in one 
of the dozens of IBM manuals that were conveniently mounted in a rack next to 
the keypunches. I eventually learned that what was transparent to me as a 
systems programmer was completely opaque to real users.
