NoSuchMethodError

Been struggling with this error since the first version of my plugin, which checks the Factions version to get the correct method for determining player-faction relations. Anyone know what the problem could be?

Here's the error
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/battletags/tickets/10-v2-doesnt-work/

and the code:
https://github.com/FlyingPikachu/BattleTags/blob/master/BattleTags/src/me/happypikachu/BattleTags/BattleTagsManager.java

 

Maybe use Factions 1.6.9.4 instead of 1.6.9.2 when compiling.

 

Well, this exception is thrown when you attempt to reference a method which is not defined for the given type. The problem line of code is

Code:java

if (pFaction.getRelationTo(npFaction).equals(rel.ALLY)) {

implying that .getRelationTo() is undefined for type Faction, or .equals() is undefined for type Rel. You should really run your code through a program such as Eclipse to avoid these types of errors.

 

Siguza Those versions use the same relation methods. Issue is only reported by beta users (1.7.x, 1.8.x).

AngryNerd I compile against Factions 1.6.2 and 1.8.0 in Eclipse with no issues/errors. What I don't understand is, how this could happen after I check the version for which method to call!

 

Bump.

 

HappyPikachu apparently the version it is run with uses Relation, while the code uses Rel

 

fireblast709 I must be doing something wrong with the version check then? All of the reports so far have been from servers with beta Factions, but only the 1.6.x versions use Relation. I'll verify the version for that ticket.

Despite Eclipse saying otherwise, I got the feeling AngryNerd may have been right about .equals(). After seeing how this commit was handled, I'll start using the following instead:

Code:java

if (pFaction.getRelationTo(npFaction) == Rel.ALLY) {

 

you should be able to use .equals() and == with enums iirc
