Solved How to call a piece of code

I want a certain piece of code to be called over and over again until my plugin is done calculating, how do i do this? (i think it's really simple but i can't figure out)

 

Roelyboely12 Depending on what you're wanting done, any number of the basic Java loops could help you. What exactly do you need to calculate? Do you know how many times you have to calculate? A few more details would be nice to have and would help us answer you better.

 

let's say i have a cube a array calculates everything and if it's not glass it will check the neighbour blocks if their glass until the cube is filled

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void JarProtector(BlockPlaceEvent event)
{
if (event.getBlockPlaced().getType() == Material.SPONGE)
{
if (event.getPlayer().getGameMode() == GameMode.CREATIVE)
{
Location loc=event.getBlockPlaced().getLocation();
int type = 0;
if (event.getBlock().getType() == Material.GLASS) {type=1;}
 
double loc_x = loc.getBlockX();
double loc_y = loc.getBlockY();
double loc_z = loc.getBlockZ();
//here the loop must begin
jar_array[I][0]= loc_x;[/I]
[I]jar_array[I][1]= loc_y;[/I][/I]
[I]jar_array[I][2]= loc_z;[/I][/I]
[I]jar_array[I][3]= type;[/I][/I]
[I]i+=1;[/I]
 
[I]Material matAtLocation = new Location(event.getBlockPlaced().getWorld(),loc_x+1,loc_y,loc_z).getBlock().getType();[/I]
[I]if (matAtLocation == Material.GLASS)[/I]
[I]{type=1;}[/I]
[I]else[/I]
[I]{type=0;}[/I]
[I]//i want to call it right here[/I]

Roelyboely12 Just run it how many times you see fit, here is a loop that broadcasts hi 50 times:

Code (open) Code (close)

Code:java

for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++){
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("hi");
}
