No, use it instead of the Property class. The tutorial is outdated.

Where is the 'Property' class that I need to replace with 'Properties'?  I'm not seeing where it is.

[Mego]

Wait... That's weird... That error message doesn't make any sense.

This is the second time in three months that I have heard this.  (First is with the dracolich reaction that suddenly went haywire, and now crashes the game whenever it is attempted to be used.)

Assuming the documentation is correct, the properties class has pretty much nothing to do with the WSCI class, and you should be passing a boolean instead

When I change the code to this:

Code: [Select]

import net.slashie.libjcsi.wswing.WSwingConsoleInterface;
import net.slashie.libjcsi.ConsoleSystemInterface;
import net.slashie.libjcsi.CSIColor;
import java.util.Properties;
 
public class HelloDungeon{
 
   public static void main(String[] args){
      Boolean text = new Properties();
      text.setProperty("fontSize","20");
      text.setProperty("font", "Courier");
      ConsoleSystemInterface csi = null;
      try{
         csi = new WSwingConsoleInterface("Insert Game Name", text);
      }
      catch (ExceptionInInitializerError eiie) {
         System.out.println("*** Error: Swing Console Box cannot be initialized. Exiting...");
         eiie.printStackTrace();
         System.exit(-1);
      }
      csi.print(0,0, "Welcome to the Dungeons of Doom!", CSIColor.WHITE);
   }
}
It solves that error, apparently, but these crop up:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
   Type mismatch: cannot convert from Properties to boolean
   Cannot invoke setProperty(String, String) on the primitive type boolean
   Cannot invoke setProperty(String, String) on the primitive type boolean

I can remove the first by changing the code to this:

Code: [Select]

import net.slashie.libjcsi.wswing.WSwingConsoleInterface;
import net.slashie.libjcsi.ConsoleSystemInterface;
import net.slashie.libjcsi.CSIColor;
import java.util.Properties;
 
public class HelloDungeon{
 
   public static void main(String[] args){
      Boolean text = new Properties() !=null;
      text.setProperty("fontSize","20");
      text.setProperty("font", "Courier");
      ConsoleSystemInterface csi = null;
      try{
         csi = new WSwingConsoleInterface("Insert Game Name", text);
      }
      catch (ExceptionInInitializerError eiie) {
         System.out.println("*** Error: Swing Console Box cannot be initialized. Exiting...");
         eiie.printStackTrace();
         System.exit(-1);
      }
      csi.print(0,0, "Welcome to the Dungeons of Doom!", CSIColor.WHITE);
   }
}
but the other two persist, and I don't know how to fix those.

Erm, you can't use a Boolean like a Properties, try commenting out the text.setProperty() lines.

[cerapa]

What are you even...

Boolean text = new Properties();
Boolean text = new Properties() !=null;

Are two very, very, very different things. First one creates a Properties and tries to squeeze it into a boolean. And as you might know, Properties is a class, and booleans can only contain 0 and 1. Hence the error "Type mismatch: cannot convert from Properties to boolean", because you would literally need to be a wizard to convert between the two.

Second one creates a new Properties, and if it exists after creation sets the boolean as 1 or 0 otherwise. If Java didn't have garbage collection, the Properties would now be sitting in limbo, eating up memory.

The 2nd and 3rd errors, as Magma pointed out, are caused by the fact that your "text" is a boolean, not a Properties.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Well, deleted those lines, so now the program works.

What are you even...

Trying to see if I could preserve the ability for property files to be made.  Now I've stopped caring.

Assuming the documentation is correct, the properties class has pretty much nothing to do with the WSCI class, and you should be passing a boolean instead

According to the source, there is a constructor accepting a String and Properties object, so the documentation is either weird or outdated.

Zanzetkuken: Sure you have the most recent version of libjcsi?

All possibilities are here, and I grabbed 0.0.2, the most recent.

JSON files are awesome for the use I'm putting them for: item raws. Loving them. I whipped up a workable item slurper in a mere thirty minutes

PROTOBUF files are awesome for the use I'm putting them for: item raws. Loving them. I whipped up a workable item slurper in a mere thirty minutes

FTFY

[GlyphGryph]

I just looked at protobuff and... this does NOT seem like an improvement. >_>

YAML is just the best way to do item raws, obviously.

[Siquo]

Well, each has its use, I guess. I like XML for it's text-editor-editableness, ini for it's simplicity, and json for it's compact API-transfer-protocolness.

[Nadaka]

Well, to be honest...

What I really want is a job.  Because I'm making $12/hour right now, when I'm employed, which is infrequent.

We may still be hiring here in panama city.

BUT: the work is boring, arbitrary and annoying. Plus we are more likely to be looking for a long term programmer considering the massive scale of the projects we work on. And I don't think you want to get this far away from your family, or deal with all the extreme conservatives...

Why the hell do I work here again?
