[cosmic pelican]

Yeah.. tried a lot of things. It's just math but that isn't exactly my strong suit.

[simple anvil]

i do kinda like math

[cosmic pelican]

You will not like this math

[simple anvil]

why

[hexed hatch]

Get the difference of the starting yaw and ending yaw, and the same for the pitch

[simple anvil]

mmmm ok bye

i do indeed dont like this math

[hexed hatch]

Then divide it by the amount of frames you want it to have

Then add and set it

[cosmic pelican]

Yeah I tried that, and then limited it to a maximum of 5 (for the difference) and I just started spinning around 💀

I also wrapped it so it couldn't go into negatives.

[hexed hatch]

I’d be willing to explore this further at another time but currently I’m “””writing an essay”””

[cosmic pelican]

fair, gl man

[nova fossil]

I’m looking for a gui lib that can open guis asynchronously. I need to populate it with stuff I pull from sql. Does anyone know of one that can do that? None of the ones on spigots list of gui libraries could do that (at least without modification as far as I saw). It would also be nice if after clicking a button it would prevent it from being pressed again for a couple seconds (I could probably modify the lib to add this behavior but I would really like the asynchronous part

[tender shard]

ugh I need help. why is the memory usage of my bot constantly rising, and also the number of tasks? both tasks and memory increase by about 1 every second and I don't know why. full source code: https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/DiscordSpigotUpdateBot

I am confused and need heeeeelp D:

[hollow aspen]

Problem With Build Path?

[tender shard]

I believe it has something to do with OkHttpClient because normally I always just used the native ways (InputStreams etc) and never had that problem

[cursive herald]

I got it using

Dispenser dispenser = (Dispenser) block.getState();
bsBlock.setType(itemType);
dispenser.getInventory().removeItem(item);
event.setCancelled(true);
dispenser.getInventory().removeItem(item);

But I have an issue
If there are only 2 blocks in the dispenser it wont remove any.
How do I fix this?

and the 2ed removeItem doesnt seam to do anything

[tender shard]

hm it seems like my garbage collector is just veeeeeeeeeery lazy, it now stoped to use more RAM at about 200M and also tasks stopped to raise at 299... maybe I just have too much free RAM lol?

[young knoll]

Java does tend to do that now

If you give it ram, it’ll use it

[tender shard]

yeah but

I set Xmx to 128M

[sterile token]

xd

[quaint mantle]

I realized

[cursive herald]

bro did he just

[quaint mantle]

I wasnt using DecimalFormat

I was using NumberFormat

[tender shard]

I found the problem. I created a new OkHttpClient everytime I needed to do a new request

instead of just reusing the existing object

[sterile token]

Oh

Big problem

[tender shard]

well normally no problem

no idea why it keeps in memory

it should normally be garbage collected

I'll go back to regular inputstreams

OkHttpClient sucks

[sterile token]

Why dont use the Java ones

Its really good

[tender shard]

I'm on java 8

[sterile token]

Ah that why

[simple anvil]

how would i get the current item held by the player?

public class CompassHub implements Listener {
    @EventHandler
    public void CompassClick(PlayerItemHeldEvent e){
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        p.get

        if (p.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getType() == Material.COMPASS && p.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase("hubtp")){
            p.sendMessage(":hi");
        }
    }
}

[tender shard]

PlayerInventory#getItemInMainHand()

or inOffHand

[simple anvil]

i have this, it works, but it only says hi after i move slots

[hexed hatch]

That's PlayerItemHeldEvent

The event is sent when a player changes hand items

what are you trying to do?

[simple anvil]

well, when a player clicks with a compass in there hand i want it to say hi

[tender shard]

then why are you listening to PlayerItemHeldEvent

[hexed hatch]

then use PlayerInteractEvent

[tender shard]

you want to listen to

yeah

as giz said

[sterile token]

Isnt deprecated or abstract ?

So we should not use it?

[tender shard]

no?

[sterile token]

I rember someone told me

[tender shard]

no

[hexed hatch]

I don't mean to be condescending, but you should really make use of the javadocs

[sterile token]

When i was doing my menu api

[tender shard]

no

[hexed hatch]

learning to read the documentation will clear up a lot of confusion for you

and help you understand what events to use and the methods made available by them

[sterile token]

I rember that i was doing my menu api and someone told me that InteractEvent was abstract and that i shouldnt be using it

[hexed hatch]

InteractEvent yes

PlayerInteractEvent, no

[sterile token]

Oh

That why

Forget what i said

[quaint mantle]

Sorry if im an idiot, but its still not working.
Is there a reason why my chance is 0.00, instead of its actual chance?

Number percent = ((conf.getInt(rewardData+s+".Weight")/chance) * 100);

                String form = new DecimalFormat("###.##").format(percent);
                itemLore.add("Chance: " + form + "%");

chance = 85

weight = 15

[tender shard]

there is no InteractEvent

[quaint mantle]

Cant figure out why

[hexed hatch]

I didn't think so, I just assumed it could've been a thing

lol

[tender shard]

oh I see what they meant

InventoryInteractEvent exists

and it's abstract

[hexed hatch]

Ah

[young knoll]

Cast either chance or weight to a double

[sterile token]

Ah yeah that was

[simple anvil]

i did player interact event and nothing is happaning

[sterile token]

Did u debug?

[quaint mantle]

Kk

@young knoll Your amazing. Why do it like that however?

[simple anvil]

no

[quaint mantle]

Is there a reason why they make it formatted like that

Seperating doubles to numbers to integers

they seem the EXACT same

[young knoll]

Because when dividing two integers

You get an integer back

So anything from 0 to 0.999999 will just be 0

Integers do not have decimals

Doubles do

[hexed hatch]

Code.

[earnest forum]

float too

[young knoll]

Yes float and double have decimals

Byte short int and long do not

[quaint mantle]

Huh

[simple anvil]

public class CompassHub implements Listener {
    @EventHandler
    public void CompassClick(PlayerInteractEvent e){
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if (p.getItemInUse().getType() == Material.COMPASS && p.getItemInUse().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase("hubtp")){
            ItemMeta m = p.getItemInUse().getItemMeta();
            m.addEnchant(Enchantment.VANISHING_CURSE,1,true);
            p.getItemInUse().setItemMeta(m);
        }
    }
}

[quaint mantle]

That seems weird though, for example: Is there a difference between float and double

[young knoll]

Yes

[earnest forum]

double has a larger number limit

[young knoll]

It’s complicated to explain, floats will be more precise closer to 0

[hexed hatch]

Again

the documentation

getItemInUse is not the method you want

[simple anvil]

get main hand?

[quaint mantle]

Hmm, so basically, 4 number types for different purposes an applications

[hexed hatch]

That, and there's a method from the event itself that should provide the ItemStack that was clicked

[young knoll]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2386772/what-is-the-difference-between-float-and-double

As for the others, byte is 8 bits, short 16, int 32 and long 64

[hexed hatch]

I really urge you to familiarize yourself with reading the documentation because you're just going to have a bad time throwing stuff at the wall and hoping it sticks

[quaint mantle]

also, @young knoll, here is why ive been asking so many questions:

Just so you know xd

[tender shard]

I don't like OkHttpClient

[hexed hatch]

then give up

give up now

[tender shard]

I got it working, I just find it weird that creating a new client stays in memory forever and is not GCed

I thought that if I create one and then derefence it, it'll be gone

but that's not true

[young knoll]

Did you check that you fully de-referenced it

[tender shard]

yes, but it schedules its own tasks

[young knoll]

Ah

[tender shard]

I never had it in any fields, only in local vars

[young knoll]

So I imagine it has a close method or soemthing

[tender shard]

yeah but I used in in try with resource blocks

so it's auto-closed

[young knoll]

Yep

[tender shard]

even closing it manually didnt do anything

[young knoll]

Auto closeable is nice

[tender shard]

everytime you create a new OkHttpClient, it stays in memory forever

I just didn't know that and it still feels weird that it does

imho it should be disposed of as soon as it's no longer references but yeah of course that won't happen if it decides to create its own tasks

[young knoll]

You know what isn’t nice, the fact that the minecraft server is closable

Which means you get yelled at for not closing it when you use it

[tender shard]

I recently get people on my discord claiming one of my plugins is at fault when their world breaks

then in 99% of cases it's them force closing the server every time

"I dont want to wait for it to shutdown everytime"

then somehow they think it's related to some of my plugins

lol

[young knoll]

Well duh

Your plugin should stop them from force closing

Gosh

[tender shard]

all I can say is Unsafe.getUnsafe().putAddress(0,0);

[young knoll]

Unsafe: because java neutered reflection :(

[regal carbon]

im trying to send a pluginmessage to bungeecord and use completablefuture to wait for its response, but the thread never continues, even after a response was received:

https://paste.md-5.net/afukojayoh.cs

[sterile token]

I was doing my own lib for http request on Java 1.8 but never finished because i didnt understand how to catch the reponse

[sterile token]

?paste - For long codes

[undone axle]

https://paste.md-5.net/

[regal carbon]

sorry, didnt know that

[sterile token]

No problems

Just join there, paste your code, press CTRL + S, copy the url and send it here

[tender shard]

am I stupid?

This must-have library lets you reliantly and instantly crash the JVM.
is there a typo in "reliantly"?

IntelliJ says there's typo but doesn't suggest any better spelling

[sterile token]

i didnt understand mfalex

[night torrent]

i forgot which ones the name of the project, artifcatID or groupID

[tender shard]

artifactId

[night torrent]

thanks

[tender shard]

group = "username"
artifact = "plugin"

e.g. one group can have many artifacts / one developer can have many plugins

so a "group" groups different artifacts

idk, maybe this helps you remember

maybe it doesnt

[young knoll]

Reliantly

According to my phone

You could also use reliably

[tender shard]

that's what I wrote

[young knoll]

IntelliJ bad then

:p

[tender shard]

anyway, here's my new awesome lib - must have for every spigot dev https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/CrashLib

[young knoll]

Is it async

[tender shard]

oh

shit

not yet

feel free to PR

[young knoll]

Lol

Don’t wanna be halting the server while you crash it, that would be terrible

[tender shard]

this is my favorite part

[sterile token]

Where that from=

Please every picture burns and fries my eyes

[tender shard]

from my CrashLib, I sent the link 5 messages above

[tender shard]

^

[sterile token]

.

Lamo i dont know how you can develop on white : thinking:

[young knoll]

Alex will get made fun of for light mode for all eternity

[tender shard]

it's a github screenshot

I am using Intellij dark mode since a week or so now

[young knoll]

Back in my day we didn’t have dark mode!

[sterile token]

ait

Github isnt white

Its black lmao

[tender shard]

no

[young knoll]

It has a light mode

[sterile token]

Ahh

That why

[tender shard]

in porn mode (+ not logged in) it defaults to white

[young knoll]

Yeah

[sterile token]

Its amazing, to be all dark with rbgs and mfalex with all light things

[tender shard]

it's because I am a happy mind

[sterile token]

My bedroomhas the light off my mouse, keyword, headphones, and table have rgbs on

I wish i had rgbs on bathroom to dont turn on the light and get literally shocked

[tender shard]

I don't even have a bedroom

[sterile token]

Isnt a way to setting a global runnable on Intellij for running things? Because everytime i change the project i have to configure again the Spigot path, ram, etc

😮‍💨

[tender shard]

I dont even know how to make intellij start spigot at all lol

[sterile token]

Its pretty simplier

I can explain you if you want

[twilit wharf]

I have a few classes for storing player data. Mainly two, NetworkPlayer, which holds things like rank and gold for players that are offline, and OnlinePlayer, which holds a ton of other data for only players that are online, OnlinePlayer extends NetworkPlayer. I have a system, so that when a player joins, it checks if there is a currently cached NetworkPlayer for their uuid, and if so, turn it into a OnlinePlayer, if not, make a new OnlinePlayer. for some reason, when a player joins for the second time none of the stuff in OnlinePlayer effects the player, like sending text to their title. I did some debugging and the caching works, idk what is the issue. HEre is the code: https://paste.helpch.at/nokibapixo.cs
Thanks in advance!

[sharp flare]

try running it in the main thread instead of async

[twilit wharf]

wdym

[tender shard]

that'd be nice

[twilit wharf]

the issue isnt with async tasks

I have a method, getCachedPlayer, java public static OnlinePlayer getCachedPlayer(OfflinePlayer p) { for (OnlinePlayer sp : cachedPlayers) { if (sp.getPlayer().getUniqueId() == p.getUniqueId()) return sp; } return null; }and this is returning null

[earnest forum]

.equaks'

[twilit wharf]

even though the arraylist has stuff in it

[earnest forum]

.equals()

dont use ==

[tender shard]

Your onlinePlayer holds a Bukkit player object right?

[twilit wharf]

yeah

[tender shard]

a bukkit player is only valid as long as the player is online

once they reconnect, they get a new player object

[twilit wharf]

yeah

[tender shard]

so you have to get the new player object everytime they rejoin

[twilit wharf]

the online player object gets yeeted when they leave

and gets recreated when they join

[tender shard]

hm

[twilit wharf]

hence the removeplayer method in the code provided

its been so fustrating

cause I cant find the issue

[tender shard]

well hard to say without seeing more code or without you telling us what EXACTLY doesn't work, like - what line of the code you sent, etc

[earnest forum]

in the loop print both

uuids

try that and if 2 are the same

sp.getPlayer().getUniqueId().equals(p.getUniqueId())
as opposed to
sp.getPlayer().getUniqueId() == p.getUniqueId()

[sterile token]

Allright (On intellij):

1. Click on the button called "Add Configuration"
2. Add new and select "Jar Application"
3. Configure your spigot jar path and vm options

[tender shard]

yeah but how would that use maven to compile my plugin and also copy it there?

[tender shard]

never use the == version for UUIDs

[earnest forum]

^

that could be the issue

[sterile token]

Using maven you use the label: <outputFile>Your server plugin path</outputFile>

And if its a shaded jar you put the path + jar name.jar

[tender shard]

yeah sure but then this would also affect my normal maven building

[sterile token]

No

The jar will still bein inside the target folder

The outputfile just copy and the paste the jar

Or at least in my case does that

The vm options its: -Xmx or just Xmx?

I dont rember if it contains the "-" first

[earnest forum]

yes

needs -

[sterile token]

Allright thanks

[quaint mantle]

So, im trying to create a class where I store all my data, instead of all in config.
Is this a good or bad idea?

[earnest forum]

good idea

as long as u save it to config

when the server stops

or do it periodically

[quaint mantle]

I meant more or less like, for example, what crates have in them but yea

Also, how would I do this?

[night torrent]

how would i make it so i run a command, and that activates an event listener?

[quaint mantle]

It doesnt let me update a HashMap right inside a class

do I have to do it inside a function

[earnest forum]

you cant run an event

only bukkit can

[earnest forum]

yea

[quaint mantle]

like private static void setupData()

[earnest forum]

yes

[eternal oxide]

you can run an event, if you are careful

[night torrent]

?

[quaint mantle]

so I have to do that?

alr

[earnest forum]

ur not supposed to do that

[eternal oxide]

depends on the event

[earnest forum]

what kind of event u wanna run

[night torrent]

I have a plugin that spawns a creeper everytime you break a block. How would I make that toggleable through commands?

[earnest forum]

store a hashmap somewhere

of a <Player, boolean>

and then when the command is ran

[eternal oxide]

you don't need to run an event. just set a boolean toggle to early exit from the listener

[night torrent]

ok

[earnest forum]

set the player's value in the hashmap to true/false

and then in the blockbreakevent

check what the player's value in the hashmap is

if its true, spawn creeper

if its false, don't

[night torrent]

ohhhh

[quaint mantle]

How do I allow a HashMap to contain multiple key types

like:

"A" = 1
"B" = "C"
"C" = 1.0

and so forth

HashMap<String, ?> basicCrate = new HashMap<>();

This doesnt seem to work, and research got me nothing

Yes I did search this issue up first

[young knoll]

Object

But this sounds like bad design

[quaint mantle]

Ill send the code rq hold on

[earnest forum]

id make a custom CrateData object

or something of the sort

[quaint mantle]

cratesMain = new HashMap<>();
        HashMap<String, Object> basicCrate = new HashMap<>();
        ArrayList<String> basicCrateList = new ArrayList<String>();

        basicCrate.put("Items",basicCrateList);
        basicCrate.put("Amount",5);
        basicCrate.put("Name", ChatColor.GREEN + "Basic Crate");

        cratesMain.put("basicCrate", basicCrate);

Am I creating this wrong?

Like is this inefficent

[young knoll]

This

[earnest forum]

u would have to cast

back to the String or integer object or whatever

really bad practice to use object

[young knoll]

Make a class called crate

That holds a name, amount, and list of items

[quaint mantle]

public static HashMap<String, HashMap> cratesMain = null;

    public void setupData(){
        cratesMain = new HashMap<>();
        HashMap<String, Object> basicCrate = new HashMap<>();
        ArrayList<String> basicCrateList = new ArrayList<String>();

        basicCrate.put("Items",basicCrateList);
        basicCrate.put("Amount",5);
        basicCrate.put("Name", ChatColor.GREEN + "Basic Crate");

        cratesMain.put("basicCrate", basicCrate);
    }

I mean I kinda already did

CrateData.cratesMain

or should I do CrateData.Data

idk lol

[twilit wharf]

its weird cause some it works, but other stuff doesnt, and it works on the first join, but not second

[waxen plinth]

good lord

[young knoll]

No

[waxen plinth]

just make a Crate class

[young knoll]

A class

Not a map

[waxen plinth]

And then store that in the map

[quaint mantle]

Can somebody send me a site to learn that?

[young knoll]

See

[quaint mantle]

Confused on what you mean

[young knoll]

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[quaint mantle]

ty

[young knoll]

Class is a very basic concept

[waxen plinth]

java is a very classy language

[young knoll]

Heh

The hashmap enthusiast is disgusted by your use of a hashmap

That’s not a good sign

[waxen plinth]

lol

[shy finch]

Hey, can somebody point me in the right direction for setting up publishing for this: https://github.com/WeaponMechanics/MechanicsMain

I've set up my settings.xml in my .m2 folder, but I am unsure what I need to put into my repo.

[quaint mantle]

Oh wait I think I see what you mean to do

wait no now im lost

[waxen plinth]

stop trying to make your thing work

[earnest forum]

can someone walk me through adding nms to maven?

[quaint mantle]

im not i just deleted all the code

im trying to figure out how to do what you said

[waxen plinth]

..how to make a class?

[vocal cloud]

run buildtools with whatever revision you want then delete the -api from the spigot-api dependency

[quaint mantle]

I know how to make a class

public class CrateData {

    
}

Thats already done, im confused on what I need to add to the class

Exactly

[waxen plinth]

What data does a crate need

Its name, presumably

[quaint mantle]

Heres the config.yml file

Crates:
  basicCrate:
    Items:
      0: DiamondRewardBasic
      1: EmeraldRewardBasic
      2: GoldRewardBasic

[waxen plinth]

The items it can roll

[earnest forum]

put a string object

"name"

List<ItemStack> items

[waxen plinth]

Man that's not a good way to structure that

[eternal oxide]

if a crate is fixed once created use a record not a class

[waxen plinth]

Yeah records are great

[earnest forum]

never heard of that before

[quaint mantle]

it is

so how do i make it actually work however?

this entire time i thought classes were just to hold functions

so now im extremely lost

[eternal oxide]

basically it handles all the field setting and gives you a read only object back

[waxen plinth]

I don't think you should be messing around with the spigot api if you don't understand the fundamentals of java

So make a playground workspace that is just plain java, not a spigot plugin

[quaint mantle]

I know how java works, I just dont understand this lol

[waxen plinth]

Find a tutorial you can follow and learn the basics of OOP and mess around with it in your playground

No you clearly don't understand how java works

[eternal oxide]

read up on records, they are handy

[waxen plinth]

If you understood how java works then you wouldn't be running into this issue

[earnest forum]

do i need to do all of this?

for nms in maven

[quaint mantle]

Send me a video>?

Ill watch it, and learn that

At this point id rather watch a 2 hour tutorial on all of that

Then have to be confused

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6T_HgnjoYwM

found one

lol

[ancient jackal]

I'll do you one better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xk4_1vDrzzo

[earnest forum]

public class data {

  String name = "";
  List<ItemStack> items = new ArrayList<>();
  int amount = 0;

}

[waxen plinth]

12 hours lol

[earnest forum]

@quaint mantle

[quaint mantle]

12 HOURS

[earnest forum]

something like this

and then create getters

[ancient jackal]

almost half of it is over java swing

[vocal cloud]

[waxen plinth]

ew

[earnest forum]

ehhh its just an example

[quaint mantle]

so would I have to make a class for every crate then?

[vocal cloud]

At least capitalize it

[earnest forum]

mike

[waxen plinth]

No

[waxen plinth]

You need to understand what a class is

[earnest forum]

do i need all this

[waxen plinth]

A class is a template

[earnest forum]

in my pom

[waxen plinth]

A blueprint

[quaint mantle]

Im watching the video rn

[waxen plinth]

You can create multiple instances of a class

Each one has its own values in the fields

[quaint mantle]

so new Class()

in a sense

class as in the classes name

[waxen plinth]

That's how you create an instance of a class, yes

[quaint mantle]

.. Okay but how would I know if its a Basic, rare, etc crate?

How would it return the correct info?

[waxen plinth]

Stop worrying about that right now

[quaint mantle]

Yknow nvm ill watch the video

[waxen plinth]

Yeah please do

It will be much easier to approach once you understand OOP

But don't expect it to click immediately

For some people it takes weeks or months to really click

The best way to get a handle on it is to follow some tutorial(s) and then mess around with it in a playground just to get a feel for it

[quaint mantle]

Same thing happened to me in LuaU

learning how modules work (which is VERY SIMILAR to java classes and OOP)

took a while before it clicked

[waxen plinth]

What

I don't think it's similar to oop lol

Lua is not an oop language

[quaint mantle]

LuaU uses oop actually as a lil fun fact

[waxen plinth]

You can model oop behavior with metatables but it's not an oop language

[quaint mantle]

In very small parts of it

[quaint mantle]

Well yea

@waxen plinth wait so

public class CrateInfo {
    String name;
    int version;

    public CrateInfo(String name, int version){
        this.name = name;
        this.version = version;
    }

    public static CrateInfo newCrate(){
        CrateInfo newCrate = new CrateInfo("basicCrate",1);
        return newCrate;
    }
}

This would be considered oop correct?

If im learning this correctly

[eternal oxide]

no

[quaint mantle]

updated hold on

i typed stuff wron

[ancient jackal]

remove newCrate, you can overload methods

[eternal oxide]

if you want yoru static method to be useful it shoudl return a new CrateInfo

[ancient jackal]

and constructors

[quaint mantle]

return new CrateInfo("basicCrate",1);

[ancient jackal]

so you can make another constructor with no params that sets the name and version to basicCrate and 1

[quaint mantle]

so like that correct?

[ancient jackal]

polymorphism goes hard

[night torrent]

how do i make a boolean public?

[drowsy helm]

public boolean

[night torrent]

I mean acssesible from another class

[drowsy helm]

public boolean

[night torrent]

oh

ok

Thanks

[eternal oxide]

You could do this using record java public record CrateInfo(String name, int version) {}

[quaint mantle]

HOLY CRAP I UNDERSTAND THIS NOW

[quaint mantle]

alright

[ancient jackal]

only use records when it's just for holding data

no changing it

[quaint mantle]

yea i may make stuff to update it in the future

so ill leave it as it is

wait so.. this also supports lists and such

correct?

[ancient jackal]

it's the same thing as a regular class but with a private final var and no setters

[eternal oxide]

and it handles setting all vars for you, also creating hash. toString and equals method

[quaint mantle]

well damn

didnt know class could be used like this

at all

[sterile token]

What do you think? :D

Message senderMsg = Message.builder().text("&3Active players &f" + Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().size()).build();
Message playerMsg = Message.builder().open("&3Follow us :D", "Hover message", "url link here").build();
        
senderMsg.send(sender);
playerMsg.send(player);

[tender shard]

stop posting screenshots of my blog

otherwise you'll have to pay me

9 billion $

[quaint mantle]

what currency

[earnest forum]

why isnt there a delete button in intellij

[tender shard]

zimbabwe dollars

[vocal cloud]

German dollars

[tender shard]

taco dollars

idk, I just want money

[vocal cloud]

Don't we all. Probably in the wrong place to make that tho

[tender shard]

what's your problem?

[young knoll]

Stop putting the $ after the amount

Ahhhhhhhh

[earnest forum]

nothing i got it working

[sterile token]

What your issue ....?

[earnest forum]

i was just asking if i need all of that

turns out i dont

[autumn frigate]

I have a problem and i want to ask that how to stop silent joining in my server?

[tender shard]

okay nice 🙂

[sterile token]

#help-server

[autumn frigate]

ok

[sterile token]

Wrong channel

[tender shard]

well if you don't need NMS, you don't need it

if you need NMS, you definitely want to do the stuff from that post

[earnest forum]

what does it actually do?

i added the dependency only, and I had all of the classes imported

[tender shard]

what classes?

as said - are you using NMS?

[earnest forum]

1sec

[vocal cloud]

If you say you need NMS for something dumb enough you can summon MD_5.
NMS is for using base MC stuff outside the scope of the API.

[tender shard]

tbh NMS is still needed for so much stuff that should be API

e.g. creating a simple hologram

[ancient jackal]

they dont call it no mans sky for nothing

[tender shard]

*client side hologram

[vocal cloud]

Yeah but it's outside the API's stuff

Even if it should be in it

[tender shard]

exactly, so doing holograms is a valid reason for NMS

[vocal cloud]

Like opening a book for a player

Requires NMS

[tender shard]

huh? really?

opening books is not possible? are you sure?

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#openBook(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)

Player#openBook

smh, everyone here still thinking in 1.8 API lol

[night torrent]

Start start = new Start();

would this line acsses the class named Start? Im using "if(start.boolName)", but its not working

[young knoll]

Is the boolName public

[earnest forum]

or static

[tender shard]

are you trolling or drunk?

[young knoll]

Hey

[night torrent]

im 13

[young knoll]

It doesn’t have to be an “or”

[tender shard]

so trolling

[night torrent]

yes it is

[young knoll]

Why

Whatever doesn’t matter right now

[vocal cloud]

No 1.16.5 but I can't remember what the issue was I had that required it

[earnest forum]

can u send the start class

[young knoll]

If you have an instance of Start, and start has a public bool named boolName that should work

[night torrent]

huh

[tender shard]

yeah it was also just a joke lol

[ancient jackal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xk4_1vDrzzo

[tender shard]

I know that openBook and openSign are quite new 😄

[vocal cloud]

I stopped doing 1.8 cause it gave me the 1.8 brain tho

[young knoll]

openBook isn’t super new

[earnest forum]

how does that have 2.9m views

[young knoll]

openSign is 1.18

[tender shard]

I wish the API docs would have a @since tag

[earnest forum]

Bro code coming in clutch 🥶

[young knoll]

Fun fact, open book very briefly changes your held item to the book

And forces you to right click

Essentially

[night torrent]

my start class:

my other class:

[earnest forum]

that should be fine

[night torrent]

it's not working

[earnest forum]

have u registered the listener?

show us your main class

and use this

?paste

[undone axle]

https://paste.md-5.net/

[quaint mantle]

im very happy rn

[tender shard]

no

that's bullshit

you have to Start classes

[quaint mantle]

public class CrateInfo {
    String name;
    int version;

    public CrateInfo(String name, int version){
        this.name = name;
        this.version = version;
    }

    public String getName(){
        return this.name;
    }

    public int getVersion(){
        return this.version;
    }

    public static CrateInfo newCrate(String name, int version){
        return new CrateInfo(name,version);
    }
}

i learnt OOP

lol

[tender shard]

you created one start object for your listener

and obviously you made another instance of it for your command

[tender shard]

so whenever someone does the command, your listener's start class object will never change

[earnest forum]

you need a singleton

or make the boolean static

[tender shard]

I am pretty sure they want it toggleable per player

[ancient jackal]

not the static constructor 😭

[tender shard]

erm yeah

[quaint mantle]

sorry

[tender shard]

the static constructor is 100% useless lol

[quaint mantle]

also one question

how would I return a list of every available Crate?

in the class?

[ancient jackal]

getters and setters

[earnest forum]

make a list of crateinfo

[tender shard]

in what class

[earnest forum]

put it in like main

and whenever u create one put it into that

[quaint mantle]

oh

alright

[regal carbon]

can someone help me with this, thanks :)

[earnest forum]

do you want it toggleable per player

[night torrent]

i want it so one player runs the command and it effects the hole server

[earnest forum]

ah

make the boolean a static

[night torrent]

so public static creeperSpawns

[earnest forum]

public static boolean creeperSpawns = false

[tender shard]

yeah that'd do it

[earnest forum]

yes

[night torrent]

thanks

[tender shard]

but

@night torrent

do you know what static does?

because it's important to tell people what it actually does

before telling them to use it

[night torrent]

yes

I did game dev with c# for a year or 2

[tender shard]

okay, well if you know it, I wonder why you didn't then make it static right away 😛

[sterile token]

+1

[night torrent]

im not very smart

[earnest forum]

also

[sterile token]

And what about google?

[earnest forum]

nvm

[night torrent]

i looked for abt 15 mins

[quaint mantle]

@earnest forum How would I remove a crate from the class?

this = null?

or

[sterile token]

Dont tag

[tender shard]

do you actually know what static means? If not I'll happily try to explain it within 3 sentences

[quaint mantle]

sorry, they helped me earlier so i pinged

[night torrent]

ngl i do struggle with it

[tender shard]

Okay I'll try to explain

[night torrent]

i looked it up once but i didnt retain it

[earnest forum]

wdym

you wanna remove a crate from the list of crates?>

[quaint mantle]

if I wanted to i mean

remove a crate from a list

[earnest forum]

list.remove(crate object)

[quaint mantle]

oh.

ty

[sterile token]

Isnt that a java staff?

[ancient jackal]

some people like registry classes for stuff like that but personally I just have a private static var

[tender shard]

@night torrent Imagine you have a Human class that has three fields: Name, Age, and Planet. Of course, we have 8 billion different humans. They can all have different names and different ages. But all humans that we know have the same planet, which is earth. So. in this case, "Planet" is the same for every human. No Human (as we know of) will ever have a different Planet. That's why Planet does not refer to any individual human, but to all humans. so Planet can be static, meaning it belongs to the class itself. Age and name differ between humans so it must be changable PER individual human, so those are not static

[earnest forum]

7 billion

!!

[sterile token]

I still think he didnt learn Java and just started using the api

[shy finch]

Hey, can somebody point me in the right direction for setting up publishing for this: https://github.com/WeaponMechanics/MechanicsMain

I've set up my settings.xml in my .m2 folder, but I am unsure what I need to put into my repo.

[night torrent]

ohhh

[tender shard]

static = belongs to the class
not static = belongs to the invidiual instance of this class

[sterile token]

You want to deploy your dependency or your code?

[night torrent]

that was actually a really good explanation thanks

[tender shard]

np 🙂

[quaint mantle]

OOP, where have you been all my life

half my coding wouldnt have been so hard if i was using oop

im disappointed

[shy finch]

code. I want people to be able to access my api without manually downloading the jar

[tender shard]

go OOP as much as you can

[quaint mantle]

i mean im trying as much as i can xd

[earnest forum]

professor mfnalex

!!

[tender shard]

yeah I try my best

[sterile token]

Allrigh so its the first option, you want to deploy your dependency package

[earnest forum]

the idea of oop is so cool to me

[sterile token]

So people can import it using your github repo

[tender shard]

if someone cannot explain something in 2-3 easy sentences, the person trying to explain hasn't understood it themselves

[ancient jackal]

@night torrent that would look like this https://paste.md-5.net/vazisowuli.java

[quaint mantle]

oop is godly is the basis of it lol

[quaint mantle]

By the way, related to oop, so by a list of crates this right?

public CrateInfo(String lowName, String detailName){
        this.lowName = lowName;
        this.detailName = detailName;
        crateList.put(lowName, true);
    }

    public HashMap<String, Boolean> getAllCrates(){
        return crateList;
    }

    public Boolean getCrate(String lowName){
        return crateList.get(lowName);
    }

    public boolean removeCrate(String lowName){
        if(crateList.get(lowName)){
            crateList.remove(lowName);
        }
        return true;
    }

[hexed hatch]

I’ve never seen static described like that

[quaint mantle]

oh hey Redempt

i learnt oop

[waxen plinth]

Why would any of these things be booleans

[quaint mantle]

cause its a HashMap, value is true

because I dont need a value for it

[waxen plinth]

..what

[quaint mantle]

Well a list, to grab it requires an int

so to make it easier to find

im using a string, by using a hasmap

[waxen plinth]

Ok what you're describing is a HashSet

Which doesn't map keys to values, only holds them and you can check contains

[quaint mantle]

?

[waxen plinth]

But that also doesn't make sense in this context

I don't get why you're doing it that way

[quaint mantle]

So that if it exists, I can grab it later

without creating a new crate

and access the data

[waxen plinth]

Right and how does a Map<String, Boolean> help with that

[ancient jackal]

HashMaps are like two lists side by side but insane and on steroids if you know what I mean, you should look at Bro Code's list chapter https://youtu.be/xk4_1vDrzzo?t=7590

[waxen plinth]

That is a really bad comparison

[quaint mantle]

wait.. i just realized how dumb i am in this context

hold on

[waxen plinth]

A hashmap is not like two lists side by side

[earnest forum]

when in doubt, watch Bro Code

[ancient jackal]

say that one more time I dare you

[quaint mantle]

@waxen plinth

HashMap<String, CrateInfo> crateList = new HashMap<String, CrateInfo>();

    public CrateInfo(String lowName, String detailName){
        this.lowName = lowName;
        this.detailName = detailName;
        crateList.put(lowName, this);
    }

    public HashMap<String, CrateInfo> getAllCrates(){
        return crateList;
    }

    public CrateInfo getCrate(String lowName){
        return crateList.get(lowName);
    }

    public boolean removeCrate(String lowName){
        if(crateList.get(lowName) != null){
            crateList.remove(lowName);
        }
        return true;
    }

there it returns this

so the value itself returns it

[earnest forum]

yesss

also

for remove crate

just do

[waxen plinth]

That makes more sense, yes

[earnest forum]

if (crateList.contains(lowName)

[young knoll]

A map links two things together, a key to an object

[earnest forum]

containsKey*

[waxen plinth]

But you really need to make that map static

[quaint mantle]

sure

[young knoll]

Idk how to go more laymen than that

[waxen plinth]

And all the methods too

[earnest forum]

containsKey*

[quaint mantle]

there

[waxen plinth]

Basically everything there should be static since it doesn't belong to any one specific crate

You also don't need to check contains in order to call remove

Just call remove, and it will return the old value if there is one

[quaint mantle]

oh alright

[earnest forum]

why does remove return a bool?

[waxen plinth]

Classes in and of themselves are not oop though

[quaint mantle]

god @waxen plinth tysm for telling me about OOPing in java

you have NO IDEA

how happy I am

[waxen plinth]

Keep looking

[quaint mantle]

I had to make so many workarounds for code

[waxen plinth]

You're far from done

[quaint mantle]

ah

[waxen plinth]

You are only scratching the surface

[quaint mantle]

Wait.. this is only the surface use of it?

Jesus

[earnest forum]

they should be static

unless u have a singleton

[quaint mantle]

Oh- alright

[waxen plinth]

You can get a hell of a lot deeper with it

[quaint mantle]

oh its not letting me chance the ones that contain "this" into static

[waxen plinth]

This is literally just one class

[quaint mantle]

also it works fine without static lol

[earnest forum]

just replace this with the class name

[waxen plinth]

What no

That's not how anything works

Are you trying to make the constructor static

[quaint mantle]

yes

why was that wrong

[waxen plinth]

.-.

[earnest forum]

i mean the hashmap, getter and remover

[quaint mantle]

ah

[earnest forum]

not the constructor

[waxen plinth]

Yeah you can't make the constructor static

[quaint mantle]

there

[waxen plinth]

Make all the other methods you showed and the map static

Do you understand what static means

[quaint mantle]

not 100%

ill research it a bit more

[earnest forum]

theres only 1 instance of that variable and it belongs to the class

[tender shard]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/a-basic-explanation-on-what-static-means tbh this is probably the most concise analogy I've ever written lol

[quaint mantle]

oh so everything has the same value

basically

every person has the same “Planet” attribute in common, so “Planet” actually has the same value for ALL humans.

based on how you stated it means lol

[earnest forum]

its just so you dont have 2 different versions of the hashmap

there is only ever 1

[quaint mantle]

OHHH

so it doesnt allow duplicates

[earnest forum]

no

[waxen plinth]

What

[ancient jackal]

if it's not static it's individual to each object

[waxen plinth]

That's not a good analogy

[quaint mantle]

oh i read that ENTIRELY wrong

[waxen plinth]

"planet" is still a property of a person

The fact that it's the same for every instance doesn't make it static

[ancient jackal]

that was a great analogy what are you talkin about

[waxen plinth]

No it's really not

[tender shard]

no, there is not a single human we know that was not born on earth

[waxen plinth]

So?

It still would not be static unless there is literally no possibility of a human ever being born elsewhere

Man it's frustrating helping people here sometimes

[shy finch]

lol

[tender shard]

so we could easily say stuff like
Human has a static field Planet = EARTH
and non-static fields Age and name

[ancient jackal]

it gets the point across, even including name and age that aren't static in comparions

[waxen plinth]

No you wouldn't make that static

It gets the wrong point across

That's not what static means

Static means it is a property of the type itself, not each instance

[ancient jackal]

tell us then

exactly

[tender shard]

do you now want to tell me that some humans ever went into space 2000 years ago or what

[waxen plinth]

Being born on earth is not a fundamental property of being a human

[earnest forum]

property of the class, not instance

[waxen plinth]

If someone was born on mars they would still be human

If someone was born in the ISS they would still be human

[tender shard]

yes true but it's an analogy

[waxen plinth]

And you're really just making it seem like a static field is a constant

Which is not the case

[ancient jackal]

okay, call the variable "homePlanet"

[waxen plinth]

Yes it's not a good analogy

[ancient jackal]

now what

[earnest forum]

honestly we should all just go watch Bro Code's explanation on static

[tender shard]

okay please tell me a better way to explain "static" to someone who didnt understand it yet

[waxen plinth]

Call it homePlanet and make it an instance field

[quaint mantle]

im more confused on static now cause of this lol

[waxen plinth]

🙃

[ancient jackal]

on god https://youtu.be/xk4_1vDrzzo?t=13227

[quaint mantle]

but i do know the difference between private and public

public means it can be viewed by other code

private means not

from what ive seen

[earnest forum]

yesd

[ancient jackal]

AND it uses spongebob

[tender shard]

I think my Human.Planet explanation is preeeeetty good to explain it

[waxen plinth]

It's not

[earnest forum]

?paste

[undone axle]

https://paste.md-5.net/

[tender shard]

oh fun fact, never ever was any human on another planet

[waxen plinth]

It falls apart if you think about it past the surface level

[tender shard]

it IS about the surface level though

[waxen plinth]

Dude I am really not in the mood for going in circles about this right now

[tender shard]

it is to explain it to beginners

[waxen plinth]

Yeah and giving them an analogy like that will make them think about static in the wrong way

Static =/= constant

[tender shard]

as said, I'm waiting here for a better real life example

[waxen plinth]

Sure

[tender shard]

I didnt say constant, I just said "planet" is what all "humans" share

[waxen plinth]

Let's say you have a similar setup

A Person class

[tender shard]

which is true, no human was ever born outside of earth

[waxen plinth]

All of its instance fields are what you would expect

Name, age, place of birth, whatever else

[tender shard]

and no human ever visited ANY other planet at all too lol

[waxen plinth]

A static field you might use in this case could be population

Which would keep track of how many humans there are

[ancient jackal]

let's hear out what Bro Code had to say about this:

You have a class, Friend. In this class there is public static int numberOfFriends. Everytime there is a new friend, this number increments. Everytime someone does, it decrements

[waxen plinth]

It would be incremented when the constructor of Human is called, and decremented when you call Human#die or whatever

[earnest forum]

in the planet class a static field could be "solar system"

[tender shard]

well I guess my explanation made them understand static while yours doesn't really

[earnest forum]

no?

[waxen plinth]

Name, age, place of birth are all properties of an individual

[ancient jackal]

no

[waxen plinth]

The population is a property of the class

It's more abstract and describes the type itself

[ancient jackal]

planets belong to all kinds of solar systems

[waxen plinth]

And the information does not belong to any one individual

[earnest forum]

im copnfusing myself

you could do like

[tender shard]

there wasn't a single human who ever visited another planet so I guess it's kinda safe to say that planet right now can be a static field

[waxen plinth]

Alex

Can you please stop

You're just saying the same thing over and over and it doesn't make your analogy correct

It's misleading

[earnest forum]

human has age, name, dob, but a static field is like their kingdom

[waxen plinth]

And it's getting very frustrating

[earnest forum]

like animalia

or mammal

[ancient jackal]

yeah

[waxen plinth]

Population is such an easy analogy

[tender shard]

it is not misleading, it may not be 100% correct but it explains it to someone who cannot differentiate between classes and instances yet

[ancient jackal]

because every human belongs to the kingdom, as they do earth

[waxen plinth]

...

[tender shard]

and someone who can differentiate between classes and instances doesnt need an explanation anymore anyway

[waxen plinth]

And population is 100% a valid usage of static

[tender shard]

why would population be a property related to human, it should more like belong to the planet

[waxen plinth]

Planet is not because it breaks as soon as a human is born anywhere but earth, and it also conflates the idea of a constant with a property of the type

[quaint mantle]

CrateInfo crate = CrateInfo.newCrate("basicCrate", "Basic Crate");
crate.addItemToList(new ItemStack(Material.TNT,16));

@waxen plinth cant thank you enough seriously

[earnest forum]

public class Human {

    public static String kingdom = "Animalia";

    public String name;
    public Date dob;
    public int age;
    
}

all humans belong to animal kingdom

[quaint mantle]

this is so helpful its not even funny

[waxen plinth]

Sure, that works too, but it's also a constant

If you want people to understand static you shouldn't use a constant as your analogy

Because they might conflate the idea of static with constants

[earnest forum]

public class Human {

    public static String kingdom = "Animalia";
    public static String type = "Mammal";

    public String name;
    public Date dob;
    public int age;

}

[young knoll]

public static float gayPercentage

[waxen plinth]

Which is why population is a much better analogy

[earnest forum]

All humans are mammals, and belong to animalia

not all humans have the same name, dob, age

[waxen plinth]

Yes, but again, those are constants

[tender shard]

I agree with that, but I disagree that population is better in any way

[waxen plinth]

So you agree that it's better to not use a constant

[ancient jackal]

I'd use the private keyword over public for the individual fields

[tender shard]

yes, sure

[waxen plinth]

But you also disagree that my analogy which doesn't use a constant is better

[earnest forum]

yeah

[tender shard]

exactly because imho "population" doesn't belong to the human class, but to the planet they are living on

[waxen plinth]

You could make that argument, sure

[tender shard]

you also wouldn't store the amount of produced cars in a car but more in the car factory

[waxen plinth]

You can almost always make the argument that some static property could instead belong to a manager class

But for the purpose of analogy, population works perfectly fine

It could be universal population rather than population on a single planet

[earnest forum]

yeah

[waxen plinth]

It's not conflating it with constants, and it's not breaking the design of the class

[tender shard]

you wouldn't do someVwCar.amountOfProducedVwCars but more like VwFactory.amountOfProducedVwCars

[waxen plinth]

Sure, it's not perfect

But it's way better than planet

[ancient jackal]

this is based

lexus?

[tender shard]

I am german, I have to use VW

it's a law

[ancient jackal]

what about beamers

[tender shard]

they are called BMW here

and that's one letter longer

and germans are efficient

[waxen plinth]

Seriously though please don't use the planet analogy, you're only going to confuse beginners

[tender shard]

okay Redempt

[waxen plinth]

You don't have to use the population analogy either

[tender shard]

lets think of an example we both think is perfect

[ancient jackal]

Bro Code has the example you want https://youtu.be/xk4_1vDrzzo?t=13227

I don't think you're really going to get something simpler and more analogous than population

Like you can make something that is more technically correct

But it's going to be more complicated and potentially go over their heads

[ancient jackal]

that's only going to confuse beginners on where to store their statics then

[waxen plinth]

And you can almost always make the argument that some static property could belong to a manager class instead of being a static member of a pojo class

[ancient jackal]

population count isnt a property of human, it's a property of planet

[waxen plinth]

Not necessarily

[earnest forum]

depends

[waxen plinth]

It could be the universal count of all humans

[earnest forum]

population of all humans ever?

[waxen plinth]

^

[earnest forum]

yea exactly

[waxen plinth]

"how many humans currently exist?"

It's perfectly valid to make that a static field

Making it a property of a planet would complicate things a lot

[ancient jackal]

it wouldnt

[waxen plinth]

Yeah it would

Are you gonna just have numberOfHumans?

[ancient jackal]

the definition of population would not complicate that at all

[waxen plinth]

The analogy becomes more needlessly complicated by doing that

So why would you

[ancient jackal]

to properly portray your analogy

[waxen plinth]

...

[tender shard]

Human.numberOfHumans would make total sense to me

[waxen plinth]

You're just being pedantic

[tender shard]

but not population

[waxen plinth]

Okay then call it numberOfHumans

[tender shard]

that'd make definitely make more sense to me

[waxen plinth]

Great I'm sick of this argument

Call it numberOfHumans and let's move on, this has been so pointless

[tender shard]

but I doubt that people would understand it as well

[waxen plinth]

How

It's so simple

You have a static field keeping track of the number of humans

[tender shard]

I am literally just trying to find a valid analogy so people can easily understand what static actually means

[waxen plinth]

It's not a property of any one human

[tender shard]

somehow the planet thingy helped someone undertsand it immediately

[waxen plinth]

They said they understood it, you mean

But that doesn't mean they understood it correctly

[earnest forum]

lets say you are making a multiplayer video game. you have a "server" class, which you need to store a list of players. this would be non static, as the game could have multiple servers. but if you wanted to store all the players across all servers it would be a static list

[tender shard]

what they understood is that static belongs to the class and is the same for all instances

and that's everything I tried to explain

[waxen plinth]

This is a more confusing analogy

[shy finch]

honestly all beginners need is that static vars are shared

[tender shard]

yeah that's much mre confusing

[ancient jackal]

I feel like there would be 2 lists, one of local players and a static list of all players, or a hashmap of Player, Server

[tender shard]

yeah but we want to have a real life analogy

because

beginners do not understand the difference between class and instance

that's exactly the hardest part for many people

[earnest forum]

yes the server class has a non static list of players, and then a staticlist of players which is global

[shy finch]

I remember my teacher used students at a school, where the school is the static var

[quaint mantle]

public class CrateItems {
    String findName;
    ItemStack item;
    Integer weight;

    static HashMap<String, CrateItems> crateItemList = new HashMap<String, CrateItems>();

    public CrateItems(String findName, ItemStack item, Integer weight){
        this.findName = findName;
        this.item = item;
        this.weight = weight;
        crateItemList.put(findName, this);
    }

    public HashMap<String, CrateItems> getAllItems(){
        return crateItemList;
    }

    public CrateItems getItem(String findName){
        return crateItemList.get(findName);
    }

    public static CrateItems newCrateItem(String findName, ItemStack item, Integer weight){
        return new CrateItems(findName,item,weight);
    }
}

[ancient jackal]

did it work

[quaint mantle]

im vibin rn

[tender shard]

yep, that's exactly what I did

in my case I just used planet earth and not your school

[earnest forum]

get all item should be static

[sterile token]

public void broadcast(Boolean component, Message message) {
component ? Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().forEach(player -> player.spigot().sendMessage(message.getComponent())) : Bukkit.broadcastMessage(message.getText());
}```

its telling me that its not a statement

[quaint mantle]

oh right

ty

[earnest forum]

and getItem

[shy finch]

well I already knew java so I already understood it

but yeah

[quaint mantle]

ty

[young knoll]

But not every student is in the same school

[earnest forum]

do you know what a getter is?

[shy finch]

He was just referring to our school

[tender shard]

redempt is right that I only explained what a static CONSTANT is, but that doesn't make the argument invalid that I explained

[quaint mantle]

not 100%

[ancient jackal]

I think ternary requires assignment

[quaint mantle]

like i said im still kinda learning

[tender shard]

because a static constant is still a static property

[quaint mantle]

i dont know the definition

but i know how to use them

[sterile token]

Hmn i didnt understand explain in diff words please

[earnest forum]

say you have a private string name variable. you create a getter so that classes outside of that instance can access it

public class Items {

 private String name = "item";

 public String getName(){
   return name;
 }

}

[quaint mantle]

OHHH

i see

[earnest forum]

public class OtherClass {
  public Items items = new Items();

  String name = items.getName();

}

[quaint mantle]

@earnest forum So if its ouside the class, its still accessible to use

THATS AMAZING

[earnest forum]

now create getters for the 3 variables

[earnest forum]

yes.

theres also setters,

[ancient jackal]

ternary requires assignment somewhere, like for(int i = 0; i < (n < 0) ? 0 : n; i++) or int n = x < 0 ? 0 : x

[quaint mantle]

only accessible inside the class

correct?

[shy finch]

Repeating this question from earlier:

Hey, can somebody point me in the right direction for setting up publishing for this: https://github.com/WeaponMechanics/MechanicsMain

I've set up my settings.xml in my .m2 folder, but I am unsure what I need to put into my repo.

[sterile token]

Oh so i cannot do what i was doing?

[earnest forum]

public class Items {

 private String name = "item";

 public String getName(){
   return name;
 }

 public void setName(String name){
   this.name = name;
 }

}

[earnest forum]

no, those are for if you wanna change it outside the class

[quaint mantle]

ah

[earnest forum]

only make these if you want the variables to change

[ancient jackal]

no

[ancient jackal]

you can refactor it into an if else quickly though

[sterile token]

No please

I dont like if else

Loks really ugly the code

I changed to using if + return, for dont use if else

hahaha

[tender shard]

yay my memory leak is fixed

[sterile token]

NICE

In my case Intellij its leaking my memory

[ancient jackal]

here I wrote it for you ❤️ java if(component) { Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().forEach(player -> player.spigot().sendMessage(message.getComponent())); } else { Bukkit.broadcastMessage(message.getText()); }

[sterile token]

Idk what the fuck intellij is doing but with 64 gb of ram looks like an old car

Its really slowly idk what happening

Java its so amazing that it doesnt allow you to have 2 method with same name and same Argument, but using diff method from the argument

[young knoll]

How would you have 2 methods with the same name and arguments

[ancient jackal]

you dont

[young knoll]

I know

But like how would you expect that to work, even in theory

[sterile token]

If java allow that i wouldnt being having 4 methods for doing exactly the same but just cuz java its so annoying i have to have the 4 methods

[shy finch]

Repeating this question from earlier. I want to publish my code so people can access my api without manually downloading the jar file (Allow people to use maven). So I have this gradle project https://github.com/WeaponMechanics/MechanicsMain that I want to publish.

It's difficult because it is multiple modules, and it builds 2 separate jar files. I have already set up my local .md > settings.xml file, but I don't know what to do for my next step. I've tried looking at other spigot plugins on github but I haven't had any success in finding help.

[vocal cloud]

I made my own maven repo. You can always do the same if you have a webserver

[river oracle]

personally since I don't have my own web server setup I use repsy.io though I'm sure you could find plenty of tools out there

[vocal cloud]

Jitpack works as well for anything at java version 17 or 8

[sterile token]

Maven and Gradle deploy plugins do PUT or POST request?

[vocal cloud]

🤷‍♂️

[young knoll]

Jitpack is notoriously shitty

[sterile token]

Because i set a express POST listener, and didnt receive anything from the maven or gradle plugin

[vocal cloud]

Did you configure your repo properly?

[sterile token]

Im using an Express webserver, that has a POST request listener (I done it to debug). And them on the maven config i tell to do the request to the post listener

And i didnt receive anything

Understand?

Oh lmao i will use translator again

[vocal cloud]

Yes. I don't use express so idk
