java - can't import own class -

i have photosscanner.java , photosscanner.class in same folder main.java. , want use photosscanner in class main code:

import photosscanner;  public class main {     public static void main(string[] args) {         photosscanner ps = new photosscanner();     } } 

when try compile main.java, error:

d:\space\newphotos>javac main.java main.java:1: error: '.' expected import photosscanner;                     ^ main.java:1: error: ';' expected import photosscanner;                     ^ 2 errors 

in java 7 compiles without errors (i'm using java 8 now). how can import photosscanner class?

imports in java used importing classes outside current package.

you don't need import class same package.
