Solved Do eventhandlers need to be public

Do @EventHandler methods have to be public or can I make them private?

 

AFAIK, they should be public. Why would you ever need to make it private in the first place?

 

Because I don't want people calling them from another class? And I'm trying to keep the jar as small as possible.

 

Go ahead and test it out. See if it works.

public/private methods don't take up any different amount of space.

 

No but creating a new class would.
It's an addon so then the person types

Code:

ClassName cn = new ClassName(x,y,z);
/* I want the event  handler in that class.
But not accessible by doing:
*/
cn.onPlayerLogin(new PlayerLoginEvent(...));

(Y) It works without error. Thanks guys! <3
