Economy Issues

The major economy plugins no longer support Vault (mineconomy, boseconomy, and iConomy). I was wondering how I should implement economies into my plugin now.

 

Who uses those? And they're all outdated. (Besides BOSEconomy)

By the way:

 

What makes you think they are not supported?

 

None of them implement the economy classes which makes it to where the RSP can't find the classes to give my plugin eco support.

That was really helpful, too bad you didn't offer any suggestion on how to fix it/work around. I really don't mean to sound condescending but I am not some newbie who doesn't know squat.

I'm not sure why this message isn't getting to you:

They are supported.

 

I have always used iConomy from here:

always worked for me.

Check the vault page, they are all listed as supported.

I posted before you edited, my bad. But still, why doesn't the RSP find the economy class inside those plugins? Or should I do individual support?

I'm sorry, but what is "RSP"?

*facepalm* I understand that I need Vault! I get how to implement an economy. But!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Read closely here please! When the registered service provider looks for the economy class it can't find it!!! This is a problem with the economy plugins I have been using.

RegisteredServiceProvider

Vault is a middleman between your plugin and some other economy plugin. This means that you don't need to know anything about what the economy plugin is.

Alright, so I implement Vault as instructed. I added some debug statements because I wanted to see the values of the variables as it stepped through the setup process. This line of code:

Code:java

RegisteredServiceProvider<net.milkbowl.vault.economy.Economy> rsp = (RegisteredServiceProvider<net.milkbowl.vault.economy.Economy>) this.getServer().getServicesManager().getRegistration(net.milkbowl.vault.economy.Economy.class);

returns null and doesn't allow me to use any features of any economy plugin. I am trying to figure out why and how I can work around it.

 

beastman3226 you need to have a vault dependency in your plugin.yml as well as have vault in your server

As I said, I installed Vault as instructed.

 

Why are you adding that line as debug. If you follow the instructions in the link I provided you you will see how to get the rsp properly and if it's null, vault will fail to load.

Code:java

 
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        if (!setupEconomy() ) {
            log.severe(String.format("[%s] - Disabled due to no Vault dependency found!", getDescription().getName()));
            getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
            return;
        }
 
    }
 
    private boolean setupEconomy() {
        if (getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("Vault") == null) {
            return false;
        }
        RegisteredServiceProvider<Economy> rsp = getServer().getServicesManager().getRegistration(Economy.class);
        if (rsp == null) {
            return false;
        }
        econ = rsp.getProvider();
        return econ != null;
    }

Because I wanted to see what was happening. I also figured it out, the economy plugin is getting initialized AFTER Vault which doesn't allow Vault to link in with the economy plugin, if someone could please tell me how to reorder initialization.
