Putting mobs into an enum

Hello, I'm trying to put mobs in an enum for a config.

Code:java

 
public enum Mobs {
    Blaze(true),
    CaveSpider(true),
    Chicken(true),
    Creeper(true),
    Pig(true);
}
 

This give errors.

"The constructor MDN.Mobs(boolean) is undefined"

 

it means theres no constructor that accepts a boolean.

create one

Also, im not 100% on what youre doing, but using an enum proooooobably isnt the way to go

 

Code:java

public enum MDN Mobs {
    Blaze(true),
    CaveSpider(true),
    Chicken(true),
    Creeper(true),
    Pig(true);
}
}

MDN = the class name
that and Mobs has and error.
Basically I'm trying to shorten this

Code:java

public void LoadConfiguration() {
 String blaze = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String cavespider = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String chicken = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String cow = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String creeper = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String enderman = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String mooshroom = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String pig = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String sheep = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String squid = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String villager = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String wolf = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String pigman = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String snowgolem = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String ghast = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String magmacube = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String silverfish = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String skeleton = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String slime = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String spider = "Broadcast.chicken";
 String zombie = "Broadcast.chicken";
    getConfig().addDefault(blaze, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(cavespider, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(chicken, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(cow, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(creeper, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(enderman, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().addDefault(pig, Boolean.valueOf(true));
    getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
    saveConfig();

 

if youre looking to add defaults like that, create the yml file, put it in your project next to your plugin.yml, load it as a default, and copydefaults from that entire file.

 

I see o.o. One more question. I see some plugins with %p% for player in configs. How do I do that

Also

Code:

    public void onEntityDeath(EntityDeathEvent event) {
        Entity p = event.getEntity().getKiller();
        Entity e = event.getEntity();
        String BlazeKilled = plugin.getConfig().getString("MobDeathNotifier.BroadcastMessage.Blaze");
        if(e instanceof Blaze) {
            Blaze blaze = (Blaze)e;
            Bukkit.broadcastMessage(BlazeKilled);

Would this be correct?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

They'd replace the %p% with the playername in code.

Use the Player Death Event instead, so you don't get notifications whenever everything dies

 

This is for if the Blaze dies

 

well then! that would be correct, i think

 

Thanks! Where could I use the p and blaze. The warnings are annoying.

 

You can do Entity.getEntityType().getName to get the name of an entity, mayby this is an alternate solution? and you can use String.replaceAll(Patters.quete("%e%"),"to replace whit") to replace a string if its inside another string

 

Is that spelled correctly

 

String.replace("%p%", player.getName());

 

event.getEntity().getKiller();

isn't able to become a string and

String cavespider =event.getEntityType().CAVE_SPIDER.getName();
gets

"Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method replace(CharSequence, CharSequence) from the type String"

 

event.getEntityType().getName();

 

...
String was just a type, you don't actually type String, you type your own variable such as String s..... >.<

 

Why the heck are you doing Boolean.valueOf(boolean)?

 

Little mistake, I changed it.

I'm getting this error on start up

Code:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
        at me.javoris767.mdn.MDNListener.onEntityDeath(MDNListener.java:38)

Something on line 38 in MDNListener.java is null. probably a variable that is not assigned, but could be a method returning null.

 

public class MDNListener implements Listener{
Is line 38
