Implicit super constructor Object is undefined for default constructor Must define an explicit constructor

Today while writing test class in eclipse i saw below error:

Implicit super constructor Object is undefined for default constructor. Must define an explicit constructor

  • This was happening due to my JRE was not set. To find it right click project –> Properties –> Java Build Path –> Click Libraries tab as shown below:

Implicit super constructor Object is undefined for default constructor. Must define an explicit constructor

  • To set JRE into build path click Add Library…

  • Select JRE System Library –> Click Next

  • Choose Workspace default JRE or Alternate installed JRE (If you want to install new JRE please use this link : Install new JRE eclipse ) . I choosen Workspace default JRE as below then click finish:

Implicit super constructor Object is undefined for default constructor. Must define an explicit constructor

 

  • Now you will see on Libraries tab new JRE system Library is set and active

  • Click OK to finish it. This should resolve the issue.

Solution 2:

  • Sometime you will see JRE system libraries is already set but still it gives error. To resolve this
  • Click project –> Properties –> Java Build Path –> Click Libraries tab –>Select existing JRE or installed new JRE as shown below and click OK to rebuild the project.

  • This should resolve the issue.

  1. Thanks. I suddently got this problem with a “dynamic web project” in Eclipse. Probably due to a Java update I did between saving the project and loading it again.
