Atom linter doesn't recognize classes in the same package

I currently have the linter package (here: apm install linter) and the linter-javac package (here: apm install linter-javac). It works great for the most part, but when I try to use packages, it doesn't recognize classes in the same package, like so:

Tree:

bank

  • Account.java
  • Account.class
  • AccountManager.java

Account.java:

package bank;

public class Account {}

AccountManager.java:

package bank;

public class AccountManager {
    private Account[] accounts;
}

When I declare the Account[] in AccountManager.java, it is underlined red and noted cannot find symbol.

Testing the classes, they do work and compile via terminal but not through atom and they are still showing the error. How can I fix this?

(note: the same problem occurs with ide-java package)

Solution

  • This is just an issue with the linter-javac package. The real solution is moving away from Atom.
