Could not successfully Import class in Groovy?

I created a two class named Vendor and Address in one file called business.groovy(that is I created package using the name business) And in the same folder I created another groovy code that imports the business package and make use of Vendor class attributes(Vendor is class in business package). But when I try to create a object for Vendor in that groovy script, it throwing error stating that:

/home/Anto/Groovy/pakg/Imports.groovy: 2: unable to resolve class Vendor @ line 2, column 13. def canoo = new Vendor()

What do I have to do? Where did I go wrong?

These are the files I created: business.groovy

package business
class Vendor {
public String name
public String product
public Address address = new Address()
}
class Address {
public String street, town, state

}

impotTesting.groovy

import business.*
def canoo = new Vendor()
canoo.name = 'Canoo Engineering AG'
canoo.product = 'UltraLightClient (ULC)'

And when I try to execute the importTesting.groovy file by using groovy importTesting command, I get the error as I mentioned before!

I would suggest you to either use some build tool like Ant or Gradle, or IDE like IntelliJ IDEA to control your classpath/compilation/runtime needs.

EDIT: It should be like that:

baseDir/business/business.groovy
baseDir/impotTesting.groovy

Your compiled classes should also resemble the same directory structure:

baseDir/business/business*.class  
baseDir/impotTesting*.class

Then your baseDir should be added to the CLASSPATH.

One solution is to create Vendor.groovy and Address.groovy containing the respective class definitions.

I've just faced similar issue while learning Groovy. In order to run your example from command line using groovy command (tested with Groovy 2.4.12), you should:

1. Follow directory structure of your src files as @Andrey Adamovich suggested. So, both your .groovy files should reside in business folder
2. Open cmd, navigate to the parent of business folder, e.g. src/main/groovy for my projeсt (I have structure src/main/groovy/business).
3. Execute the script with command groovy business/importTesting.groovy
