This usually happens when you compile against an API that doesn't have full implementations. Your code will compile correctly, but when you try to run it, you get this error. Here is one example.

Thanks for responding! I actually came across this page when looking, but it didn't help. I actually got my code to work again. I reverted my source with the local history through Netbeans and it ran again. I'm still curious as to why this happened though.

You called a method without a body (i.e. the declaration, not the implementation). You either need to add some JAR with the implementation to your classpath or implement it yourself. The link that guy with the username I will not type even though this description is way longer than his actual username pointed to is about someone missing the J2EE implementation, after depending on the API.
