And to call it from another class you instantiate an object of HelloWorld? sometimes when I try to add a method under main, the IDE just don't recognize it at all , Eclipse, it keep telling : Syntax error, insert ";" to complete LocalVariableDeclarationStatement

(1) You cannot insert a method declaration into another method. Here, main is also method, so you cannot insert a method declaration into the main method. (2) HelloWorld has only static elements. This means there is no point to create an instance of it. To call the main method from another class, you would do it just as in your question: HelloWorld.main(new String[0]);. It does not return a value, but only print it to the console. Are you sure you want to do this?

You are welcome. However, you might want to ask a new question for that, since it seems to be quite different from this question.
