#

you mean loop player to get the closest checkpoint

#

but what about the fact that a checkpoint is a location

#

even tho they are at the same line (road width)

#

| A - - C - - - | //Checkpoint
| - - - B - - - |

#

if C is a checkpoint, the player A should be in 1st place

#

but since when looping the B is closest to the last checkpoint

#

it would be 1st and A the 2nd place

#

same with finish line, how would i handle correctly that

Hey, whats the best way to find all classes inside a package using Kotlin? (at runtime)

sterile hinge Sep 23, 2022, 8:23 PM

#

that's generally something that should be avoided, and while there are tools to find all classes in a package, that doesn't necessarily match the source code representation (especially with kotlin)

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:24 PM

#

is there a particular reason why that should be avoided?

icy shadow Sep 23, 2022, 8:25 PM

#

yes

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:25 PM

#

oh facepalm sorry, I meant to ask what the particular reason is xD

sorry lmao i couldnt resist

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:25 PM

#

icy shadow sorry lmao i couldnt resist

I know xD

icy shadow Sep 23, 2022, 8:26 PM

#

the main issue is that it's kinda fragile, as ywell said it's usually relying on classes matching the source which isnt always true, there could be lots of other generated classes that will break things

#

it also usually involves a big (many MB) library and some performance cost

#

if you need it then something is probably badly designed

cough serviceloader cough

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:28 PM

#

that does make sense thinkies
Well I am not quite sure how to achieve it other wise. Basically I am creating alot of recipes, and the Recipe class itself has just one job, make the shapedRecipe, I have a class that does the registering itself.
So I don't have alot of references in my "RecipeRegisterClass" I thought it would be the best to "auto discover" all the recipes

#

but I guess I will just have to reference all the recipes in some way

icy shadow Sep 23, 2022, 8:30 PM

#

yeah i wont lie, that would be a nice idea

#

but it's generally not a good one

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:30 PM

#

you think the auto discovery is a nice idea?

marble nimbus Sep 23, 2022, 8:31 PM

                    //  if player has item in their hand and sneak, they can use that item
                    if (!item.getType().equals(Material.AIR) || (!item.getType().equals(Material.AIR) && !player.isSneaking())) {
                        event.setCancelled(true);

#

if yes, listen to chunk unload, then loop through entities in that chunk

#

world.getEntities only lists the entities that are loaded

#

aka if the chunk is unloaded, it wont show up on that list

#

@vestal talon

vestal talon Sep 24, 2022, 7:40 PM

merry knoll are you just trying to clean up armor stands on a world?

I did it in a function like:

            if (entity instanceof ArmorStand) {
              entity.remove();
            }
        }
}

I did L extends (L => L) the other day and started to build lambda calculus functions with it

cuz you know

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:19 PM

#

do those names not clash

#

or is it recursive

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:19 PM

#

well it's not exactly "recursive"

#

it's like in Java Enum<E extends Enum>

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

oh

#

ok

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

#

or BaseStream<T, S extends BaseStream<T, S>>

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

#

so it's like UnaryOperator<L>

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

#

yeah

#

But L in itself is a UnaryOperator

#

so UnaryOperator<UnaryOperator<UnaryOperator<UnaryOperator<UnaryOperator<...

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

#

spiral eyes

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:20 PM

#

you could do L extends UnaryOperator<L>

#

but that's not really a proper function type

#

cuz java

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:21 PM

#

true

#

hang on

#

is there even a valid value for that type

#

except the identity function

#

L => L

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:22 PM

#

well no

#

you can return another function that isn't the input

#

e.g. TRUE: L = a => b => a

#

that is a function that takes a, but it returns a function that ignores its input and returns the captured a

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:24 PM

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:24 PM

yeah i was just confused about the type

#

but i forgot u dont have anything that's not a function in the LC

#

i was thinking like Int => Int

yeah lol that's where it gets complicated

"how do i actually do anything"

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:25 PM

#

well i suppose you dont do anything

#

just like a "pure" turing machine doesnt really do anything

lyric gyro Sep 24, 2022, 11:27 PM

#

i find it intriguing how a Turing machine describes a physical machine but LC is more abstract and it's just .. whatever it is, but they define the same thing

#

how do you "build" a LC machine?

icy shadow Sep 24, 2022, 11:28 PM

im not sure you could

but i cant elaborate

that is an interesting thought experiment though

does java sets compare through hash?

dusky harness Sep 25, 2022, 12:28 PM

#

java sets are hashmap keys

#

iirc

#

hashsets*

merry knoll Sep 25, 2022, 12:28 PM

#

or is it just hashsets?

#

that do so

dusky harness Sep 25, 2022, 12:28 PM

#

well i mean you could make your own set impl

#

which doesn't use hashmaps

merry knoll Sep 25, 2022, 12:28 PM

#

nah hashing is fine

#

just need to know if they compare reference or hash

#

so i can implement hash method to the stuff i store

dusky harness Sep 25, 2022, 12:29 PM

#

hashCode() is only for "sorting"

#

but it ends up comparing by equals() I think

merry knoll Sep 25, 2022, 12:29 PM

#

dusky harness but it ends up comparing by `equals()` I think

ah, okay

dusky harness Sep 25, 2022, 12:29 PM

#

dusky harness `hashCode()` is only for "sorting"

ex if you set it to always return 0, it will still work, but won't be as optimized

shell moon Sep 25, 2022, 12:56 PM

merry knoll chances are they are using yml as a database

merry knoll Sep 25, 2022, 1:01 PM

you could also use separate yml files

lyric gyro > * Snake now limits the length of a document to 3MB by default, Paper increases...

feel like their use case is one where its kinda okay

you would probably want users to edit the settings of the heads

Hey I have a quick question, is it smart to prepare statements like this?

    private void checkTables(){
        try (Connection connection = connectionKeeper.connection();
             PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareStatement("""
                        CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Coins (
                            player_uuid varchar(36) primary key,
                            coins BIGINT
                        ); 
                    """)
        ) {
            statement.executeUpdate();
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            throw new CoinsDBException("An error occurred while checking tables.", e);
        }
    }

Incase its unclear, inside the () of the try, this will get a connection and also prepare the statment, and in the actual try block it will execute it.

#

Wouldn't it be better to just put in the connection inside the () of the try? Since I think once the connection gets auto-closed the preparedstatement will be picked up by GC

sterile hinge Sep 25, 2022, 8:15 PM

#

I'd leave it that way. While correctly implemented drivers should be able to deal with the latter, it's definitely not worse to have both as resources

#

(and the GC only comes afterwards, the resources should be closed properly at that point already)

I thought so too, eg HikariCP should be able to handle it just fine. so both ways would be acceptable, in this case defining it inside the resources and inside the try block right?

a protocol is a protocol, if you don't follow a protocol then you can't use the protocol

ok i'm sending this
ok i'm receiving this
ok i'm still sending this
ok i'm still receiving this
ok i finished sending this
ok i finished receiving
have a nice day

if any of those messages don't come through then the protocol says to try again / send an error

Anyone good with image work in java?
My goal is to take java assets and punch them together for images being sent by my bot to discord. Example: Player dies with a diamond pickaxe in their hand. So I have to create the inventory image with the player puppet, their skin applied within the inventory as well as the item held just like the ingame inventory. I know this is... not the easiest task.
I'm currently looking at libraries and I'm rather unsure. I know that I want generation to be as fast as possible, but I'd also like the option for additional effects. Any ideas, suggestions, pointers? If it was your task, what would you use and why?

lyric gyro Sep 26, 2022, 11:55 AM

Yea, exactly that. Currently, I rely on interactive chat discordsrv addon providing the image methods and my plan is to get away from that dependency. Sometimes, with that, images (especially ones that have many layers such as inv + puppet + items held + full inventory + armor) take up to 7 seconds to come back - something I'd like to fix in my version.

id say that the only thing thatll change between 1.14 and 1.19 would be some class path changes and maybe a change to the obfuscated character

#

or if its not obfuscated name then to its current stated name

#

sounds like fun /s

primal otter please learn java before coding spigot plugins

i kinda hate this sentiment because you can very easily learn java using spigot and it seems like it's completely a slap in the face and disregards whatever the user is asking how to do, it seems so much more helpful to say to focus on learning java conventions.

Saying to learn java before spigot plugins is essentially saying "lol quit plugins, its too hard for you" zzz_shrug

#

yesss

tight junco Sep 26, 2022, 2:34 PM

#

instead of saying, I recommend looking into how _x_ language is used to help with the plugin, you're just saying to just stop entirely

tight junco i kinda hate this sentiment because you can very easily learn java using spigot ...

i disagree, using the spigot api well requires a pretty strong understanding of OOP and java fundamentals and if you dont have that before you're only making things harder for yourself

#

you might be able to make something work but it'll be a gigantic mess that barely works

hoary scarab Sep 26, 2022, 2:37 PM

I never actually learned java. All my knowledge/experience was started from spigot.

lyric gyro Sep 26, 2022, 2:37 PM

#

no wonder

tight junco Sep 26, 2022, 2:38 PM

#

i agree with that much, but saying to just completely disregard using spigot api entirely is plain stupid to me

#

it's completely unhelpful

icy shadow Sep 26, 2022, 2:39 PM

#

trying to code plugins with 0 java knowledge is equally unhelpful

tight junco Sep 26, 2022, 2:39 PM

#

-> user asks for help on how to do something
-> developer tells them to learn how to do it and nothing else
-> user got nowhere

icy shadow Sep 26, 2022, 2:39 PM

#

oh sure i wouldnt use it as an excuse to not help someone

tight junco Sep 26, 2022, 2:39 PM

#

people so often just tell people to learn the language without pointing them any direction on how

icy shadow Sep 26, 2022, 2:40 PM

#

but 9/10 times if someone doesnt have java knowledge they wont even understand any helpful explanation

lyric gyro Sep 26, 2022, 2:40 PM

#

giv cod

tight junco Sep 26, 2022, 2:41 PM

#

but in 9/10 cases people just say "learn java" and give no directions from that point on

FAQ Answer:

Online Courses:
Online courses are also great for learning java. Some websites that offer them are:

Coursera - Free unless you want a certificate
PluralSight - Great courses from what I've seen. Mostly Paid
Udemy - Never used them myself but they seem to all or at least most be paid.
My first ever course was one from Coursera. - I can say it was pretty good at introducing me to the programming world as a whole not just java.

Oracle Docs:
Oracle docs can help a lot at learning and understanding java:

Start with this,
Breeze through this (skipping stuff that doesn't seem relevant like bitwise operators),
Hit this.
They're the first three from this larger thing which you should definitely go through overall. But those three should be enough for slightly better understanding of what is happening here without feeling like a huge time sink.
That one is a small part of this larger site wherein "Essential Java Classes" and "Collections" also have good useful stuff

Other services:
Some other cool services that will help you learn java are:

As you can see there are plenty of good ways to learn as long as you're willing to invest the time. Have fun learning!

yeah they're the starting points but even then it can take a really extended amount of time to get to the point
