NullPointerException

Sorry, but I don't know how to get it to work.
Error:

Code:

SEVERE: Could not  pass event PLAYER_COMMAND to Skillz
java.lang.NullPointerException

Script

Code:

public void onPlayerCommand(PlayerChatEvent event) {
         String[] cmd = event.getMessage().split(" ");

         if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/command")) {;
             event.setCancelled(true);
         }
    }

 

Do you register the event, using something similar?

Code:

PluginManager pm = getServer().getPluginManager();
pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_COMMAND, playerListener, Priority.Normal, this);

Although I do not really see why this would raise this exception...

 

Yes I did that.

 

Code:

public void onPlayerCommand(PlayerChatEvent event) {
         String[] cmd = event.getMessage().split(" ");

         if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/command")) {;   <---Why is there a ; there?
             event.setCancelled(true);
         }
    }

Other than that oddity, all I can really offer you in terms of advice is for you to go overboard with separating everything out to pinpoint the null object. Which as far as I can see is either getMessage() or the event variable.

Code:

public void onPlayerCommand(PlayerChatEvent event) {
       String s = event.getMessage();
       if(s!=null){
         String[] cmd = s.split(" ");

         if (cmd.length>0 && cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/command")) {
             event.setCancelled(true);
         }
      }
    }

 

Oh, pretty dumb I typed the ; there, but it isn't in my script
