Error in exercise

Gif g1 = new Gif.GifBuilder("maira logo") .withdateUploaded(LocalDate.of(2020,10,13)) .withUsername("mairak") .withFavorite(true).build(); The first one is ok... Following the same pattern I created : Connection c = new Connection.ConnectionBuilder() .withJdbcVendor("sqlite") .withDb("languages") .withUser("th_user","mysuperlongpassword") .build();

But Check Work still find it wrong...

com/teamtreehouse/builder/Connection.java
package com.teamtreehouse.builder;

public class Connection {
  private String jdbcVendor;
  private String dbName;
  private String username;
  private String password;

  public Connection(String jdbcVendor, String dbName, String username, String password) {
    this.jdbcVendor = jdbcVendor;
    this.dbName = dbName;
    this.username = username;
    this.password = password;
  }

  public Connection(ConnectionBuilder builder) {
    this.jdbcVendor = builder.jdbcVendor;
    this.dbName = builder.dbName;
    this.username = builder.username;
    this.password = builder.password;
  }

  public static class ConnectionBuilder{
    private String jdbcVendor;
    private String dbName;
    private String username;
    private String password;

    public ConnectionBuilder(){}

    public ConnectionBuilder withJdbcVendor(String jdbcVendor) {
      this.jdbcVendor = jdbcVendor;
      return this;
    }

    public ConnectionBuilder withDb(String dbName) {
      this.dbName = dbName;
      return this;
    }

    public ConnectionBuilder withUser(String username, String password) {
      this.username = username;
      this.password = password;
      return this;
    }

    public Connection build() {
      return new Connection(this);
    }
  }
}
Application.java
import com.teamtreehouse.builder.Connection;
import com.teamtreehouse.builder.Connection.ConnectionBuilder;

public class Application {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO: User the builder here instead
    Connection c = new Connection.ConnectionBuilder()
      .withJdbcVendor("sqlite")
      .withDb("languages")
      .withUser("th_user","mysuperlongpassword")
      .build();
  }
}

Hi there, ACG Treehouse1! You're doing terrific! The problem here is how you're calling the ConnectionBuilder(). You've already specified to import it from that namespace.

You have:

new Connection.ConnectionBuilder()

But because you've explicitly imported that, you should use:

new ConnectionBuilder()

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
