it says that non-static method setEmpNum(int) cannot be referenced to static context Employee.setEmpNum(emp) ;

Import statements should be the first thing, after that declare all the classes

Habo Osman Yes, non-static methods should only be accessed through objects. While you can still declare method as static and call it using class's name.
