Summary: Compiling Individual SubClass in any Language level 

Initial Comment:
When you try to compile an individual subclass in any language level except Full Java, the compiler will not resolve the superclass name.  If you click on "Compile Project" then everything will compile just fine.

In the example code I have attached, I have two simple classes, SubClass and SuperClass.  I have included source code and project files for all Language levels.  

*If you click on "Compile Project" in any project, all the code will compile fine. 

*If you compile just SuperClass, it will compile just fine in any language level.

*If you try to compile just SubClass, even if SuperClass has already compiled, it will fail with the following error (here for Elementary language level):

1 error found:
File: C:\Users\swong\Documents\My Classes\Comp201\DrJava tests\Individual file compile bug\src\SubClass.dj0  [line: 1]
Error: Could not resolve SuperClass

* However, in Full Java, the individual compile of SubClass will succeed.
