using getconfig() in CommandExecutors?

I have a CommandExecutor set up, but if I use getConfig().getString("asdfdfas"), you can use the getConfig by making a constructor, but you have to cast getString to getConfig, which doesn't work. Who knows how to solve this?

You need to get the YamlConfiguration on the setup and use it in the executor

 

do you have a link?

 

you could also just do: public YourMainClass plugin = new YourMainClass();
and then to get the config you can type: plugin.getConfig().whateveryouwant

 

thank you very much!

EcMiner I am sorry, but I tested it, and now the command I use throws this exeption:

Its says you that it cound not load the config. Have you created one?

 

yes, and if I use it in my main class it does work................

 

Datdenkikniet strange....
try to create a method to get your config.

Code:java

public static FileConfiguration getMyConfig(){
    return getConfig();
}

now you can get your config using YourMainClass.getMyConfig()

 

I dont know why, but now i get a nullpointerexecption....

 

You can't access a dynamic member from within a static method.

In your commandExecutor class, do this:

Code:java

private FileConfiguration config;
 
public YourExecutor(FileConfiguration config) {
    this.config = config;
}

Then just use the config variable to get values (config.getString("...")

Of course, when you instantiate the executor in your main class, make sure to pass getConfig() as an argument

 

how do I pass getConfig() as argument?

 

Datdenkikniet
Just drop it in:
YourExecutor(getConfig());

 

Same as for Listeners holds for CommandExecutors. Then you can use: plugin.getConfig()...
