Class names error?

Although I was following along with the video & everything appears to be exactly the same, when i give the command: clear && javac Example && java Example what i get is an error message of: Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m
error: Class names, 'Example', are only accepted if annotation processing is explicitly requested 1 error
