2. In the New Java Class wizard, in the Source Folder field, specify the source folder for the new class.

3. Select the Enclosing type check box and type a name of the enclosing type in the field.

4. In the Name field, type a name for the new class.

5. Under Modifiers, select access modifiers for the new class.

6. In the Superclass field, specify the superclass for the new class.

7. Click Add.

8. In the Implemented Interfaces Selection window, select the interfaces for the new class to implement and click OK.

9. Select method stubs to create in the new class.

10. Click Finish.
