What does this error mean?

The nested type HelloWorld cannot hide an enclosing type

Where HelloWorld is the java file name. Here's the code if you need it:

import net.java.games.jogl.*;
public class HelloWorld
{ // open HelloWorld

    public class HelloWorld
    { // open HelloWorld

        public static void main (String args[])
        { // open main
            try
            { // open try
                System.loadLibrary("jogl");
                System.out.println("Hello World! (The native libraries are installed.)");
            } // close try
            catch (Exception e) // all try's need a catch
            { } // even if the catch does nothing
        } // close main

    } // close HelloWorld

);

You have defined the HelloWorld class twice. Remove one level and you should be fine.
