Im suppose to un-comment code in the Forum and Main class, however is has been giving me issues from the get go...

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Beginning forum example"); if (args.length < 2) { System.out.println("Usage: java Main <first name> <last name>"); System.err.println("<first name> and <last name> are required"); System.exit(1); } Forum forum = new Forum("Java"); // TODO: pass in the first name and last name that are in the args parameter User author = new User("Thando","Bhebhe"); // TODO: initialize the forum post with the user created above and a title and description of your choice ForumPost post = new ForumPost("author","Car","green car"); forum.addPost(post);

}

}

Your challenge is to pass what's in the args[] array given. So when creating a new User you pass args[0], args[1]. I also noticed in the ForumPost you pass "author" it should be without the quotation marks because it is expecting a User , and not a String if I remember correctly.
