[LibGdx] unknown error but it still works

Newbie & Debugging Questions
#1

Hello everyone,
yesterday i stared to learn LibGdx, i set it up and read the Wiki and the examples and now am following one of the link on the LibGdx home page
and for some reason i don’t know why this line of code is red-underline

return new SplashScreen( this );

(it’s in the first class of the blog )
i also tried to watch this video (i don’t really like video tutorials)
and he did the same, and again it’s red-underlined
the weird thing is when i run the “game”, i get the same results just like in the tutorials

any help please ??

PS :
if anyone have a better starting tutorials,articles, or even videos then please post a link here
(my favorite Java Tutorials was the one from ZetCode , so you may have an idea of my favorite “type” )

thank you very much

If you are using Eclipse and your code has a red or yellow underline, you can hover your mouse over the line to see what the error is. :slight_smile:

Lots of other tutorials mentioned here:

oh :smiley:
it said

[quote]The constructor SplashScreen(AngryMasons) is undefined
[/quote]
and when i click the “lamp” it said

[quote]No suggestions available
[/quote]
i don’t know if am too sleepy now or it’s a difficult error that i cannot understand :stuck_out_tongue:
help please ::slight_smile: ??

thank you

[quote]It would be nice to separate the code based on the screen. In order to achieve that in libgdx, we could modify our game’s main class to extend com.badlogic.gdx.Game

yes i read that,
but i completely have no idea you know :stuck_out_tongue:

Ps :
did i rushed when i post this topic ? i just start libGdx yesterday, i think i should read more about it and just follow examples for now, and then i’ll start to ask questions

Thanx for your help

I had errors like that in eclipse, try just repasting the whole entire code. Eclipse has random errors like that xD

#7

Probably because the type you are giving to your SplashScreen constructor (“AngryMasons”) does not match the type expected, based on the constructor you defined in the SplashScreen class.

@Agro I hate when I get errors like that and it turns out eclipse was lying the whole time! Sometimes i get dissapointed when a copy and paste doesn’t solve my problems:(

#9

If you made it extend Game then it should be fine.

#10

i copied the code, still red-underlined, but it works too
i dunno am not very focusing with LibGdx for now (need to complete the Java2D game that i started )

thank you all
