ConstructorHeaderName expected error when registering event

I get "Syntax error on tokens, ConstructorHeaderName expected instead" error when i try to register event:

Code:

pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);

How can i fix this?

 

Is your playerListener constructed this way?:

Code:

private final <name>PlayerListener playerListener = new <name>PlayerListener(this);

And also, your PlayerListener extending class has this header:?

Code:

public class <name>PlayerListener extends PlayerListener {
    private final <name> plugin;

    public <name>PlayerListener(<name> instance) {
        plugin = instance;
    }
}

Other than this nothing comes to mind.

 

Yes they are like that, except that second thing was bit diffrent, i tried using that but i still get the same error from
that registerevent line.

 

Perhaps it is an error in your playerlistener code? For example, an error like this:

 

I dont think so. But theres mah code:
PlayerListener.java

Code:

    PluginManager pm = this.getServer().getPluginManager();
    private final PlayerListenerPlayerListener playerListener = new PlayerListenerPlayerListener(this);

    public void onEnable(){
        logger.info("");
    }

    public void onDisable(){
        logger.info("");
    }

    pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);

PlayerListenerPlayerListener.java

Code:

public class PlayerListenerPlayerListener extends PlayerListener {
private final PlayerListener plugin;

public PlayerListenerPlayerListener(PlayerListener instance) {
plugin = instance;
}
public void onPlayerMove(PlayerListenerPlayerListener event){

}
}

The whole
pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);
is red underlined with the error ConstructorHeaderName expected instead

 

Well the register event is outside of any function, I guess you wanted it to be in the onEnable() method (thats at least were it makes the most sense xD), something like this:

Code:

    PluginManager pm = this.getServer().getPluginManager();
    private final PlayerListenerPlayerListener playerListener = new PlayerListenerPlayerListener(this);

    public void onEnable(){
        pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);
        logger.info("");
    }

    public void onDisable(){
        logger.info("");
    }

 

it is inside the main class function thingy, lol, i just didnt copy the whole thing to that reply, just the important stuff

 

Yeah but beeing inside the class only won't work, you cant execute commands inside a class withouth them beeing inside a function / method. Try to put it into the onEnable(), it should work.

 

I put it now in onEnable, doesnt give me the error anymore

 

For example this will work:

Code:

public class SomePlugin extends JavaPlugin {    
    // ...
    
    public void onEnable(){
        pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);
        logger.info("");
    }
    
    // ...    
}

This will NOT work:

Code:

public class SomePlugin extends JavaPlugin {    
    // ...
    
    public void onEnable(){        
        logger.info("");
    }
    
    pm.registerEvent(Event.Type.PLAYER_MOVE, playerListener, Event.Priority.Normal, this);
    
    // ...    
}
