I am referencing PlayerUtil.getMovementSpeed(player); in my Speed class, and in my PlayerUtil class, I have the method defined as:
public static double getMovementSpeed(Player player) {
//my code here
}
But whenever the getMovementSpeed method is referenced in my other classes, it throws this error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: net.Swedz.util.PlayerUtil.getMovementSpeed(Lorg/bukkit/entity/Player;)D
I thought it may be that Eclipse was exporting incorrectly, but I rebooted it and tried again with no avail.
EDIT: I did try decompiling the exported jar, and the public static double getMovementSpeed(Player player) method does exist in the exported jar.
EDIT: My friend is also having a similar issue, and is using IntelliJ, so Eclipse is not the issue.
EDIT: Class definition for PlayerUtil:
package net.Swedz.util;
public class PlayerUtil implements Listener {
//getMovementSpeed is defined in here
}
Class definition for Speed:
package net.Swedz.hack.detect.move;
public class Speed implements Hack, Listener {
//my detection methods and method containing PlayerUtil.getMovementSpeed(player);
}
SOLUTION: I found on my own that I had classes conflicting between two plugins on my server. I had one jar with net.Swedz.util.PlayerUtil and another with net.Swedz.util.PlayerUtil both with different contents. I added my project name in all lower case after the net.Swedz and it seems to have fixed it!
Thanks!
This is a very simple to troubleshoot.
you have used that method and you were able to compile that class which uses this method.
so that means at compile time it reefers the class PlayerUtil which has this method.
But runtime class loader has loaded the class PlayerUtil which doesn't contain this method.
now what you have to do is just find out where that class has been loaded from (at run time)
if you can recreate the problem while it is running using eclipse/IDEA follow these steps.
(if it runs in in application server or standalone application, then start the application server or application with debug enabled.and you can do remote debug from your IDE).
put a break-point where exception was thrown (where you call this method).
start to debug , it will hit the break-point.
then evaluate this expression PlayerUtil.class.getResource("PlayerUtil.class")
4.you can find the path where the class was loaded from.
now you have two options , decompile the class and check whether that method is these (same return type, same name , same args).
or in debug , you can evaluate PlayerUtil.class.getDeclaredMethods() to find out.
So you can solve the problem by rectifying the class path entries if it was loaded from a wrong place.

My problem is that when class B tries to use A.check() my execution stops due to a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.
So here is my class configuration. NB: the classes are in the same packages and I have already checked that the A.class file is placed where it should be.
public class A{
// vars
// declare some public method
public synchronized static boolean check(){
//do stuff, log some info and return boolean
}
}
public class B implements Runnable{
public void run() {
A.check();
}
}
And here is my stacktrace:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/mypackage/A
at org/mypackage.B.run()
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org/mypackage.B
at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.strategy.SelfFirstStrategy.loadClass(SelfFirstStrategy.java:50)
The project is really big and class A is used lots of times before this call without any problem, so i don't think that is something relative to the classpath. Note that this is part of the last call of the software that should close up everything.
Moreover, I have two maven goals: the first one execute the questioned code without any problem, instead the second rise this error every time.
So I have solved my problem and I post here the solution so maybe can be useful for someone else.
First of all the error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
This error is really different from ClassNotFoundException and this is where I'have lost a lot of time.
NoClassDefFoundError in Java is raised when JVM is not able to locate a particular class at runtime which was available at compile time. For example, if we have a method call from a class accessing any member of a Class and that class is not available during runtime then JVM will throw NoClassDefFoundError. It’s important to understand that this is different than ClassNotFoundException which comes while trying to load a class at run-time only and the name was provided during runtime, not on compile time. Many Java developer mingles this two Error and gets confused. Here I quote a really useful blog that I uesd.
So in a shorter way NoClassDefFoundError comes if a class was present during compile time but not available in java classpath during runtime.
But even with those information the problem was still there until I found the mystery: one of the reason that can place the class in a state that can be compiled but not located at runtime is that if you have static initialization that fail (e.g. in my class I had as field a static variable instantiated badly).
So remember to check for you initialization phase if you have static variables in your class this could be the reason of your java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.
By the way I don't get why this kind of error is not raising some more meaninful errors for example java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError or something like that.
Try to debug maven execution by running: mvn -X <your_goals>
It would be useful to see your POM file.
If you are working with spring mvc and if you made bean entry in dispatche-servlet.xml for Controller class.
Example :
<bean id="MyClass" class="com.aaps.myfolder.MyClass">
<property name="methodNameResolver">
<ref bean="methodNameResolver" />
</property>
</bean>
And if MyClass.java is not compiled & if no class file is generated in classes folder of your project folder then it wil show java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.
So check whether the MyClass.class is created or not in classes folder if you are working with spring mvc.
Does Class A have anything that is done in a static block. You can get this exception even if a class is being loaded and static blocks fails for any reason reason. try to put in logging to see if something like this is happening.
The error states Error main method not found in class. Please define the main method as:
public static void main(String[] args).
Eclipse was working for me a few days ago, but now it just gives me that message
an example would be
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}
Check if exists any error in your project. Not just the compilation errors. Click on project and check the "Problems" view in Eclipse. You need to remove all of "Errors".
First clean your project Using Project-->Clean and then build it again.
Also make sure that your build path is properly set.
I ran into the same issue. Just clean your project..save your project and then run it.
Check whether you have created a class with the name "String". If you have created a class with the name "String", the compiler will not be able to resolve the conflict between 2 classes i.e. java.lang.String and your String class therefore it won't recognize the main method.
So just remove that String class or rename it.It happened to me also.. I resolved using this only.
I ran into this problem also when I moved the location of the main method in my program to another file in the same program. If this is what happened to you, the fix is to go to the top of Eclipse near the bug and play icons and change the "Run as..." field to "Java application" from whatever its previous location was.
Try to resturt Eclipse in a new workspace.
Maybe you are creating 2 classes in the same package or u have defined one of your defined class name as "String". If you have then change that classname to something else , because at that time compiler cannot differentiate between java.lang.String and your user defined class "String". So jst chage the name of that String class.
I'm working in Java and have come across an incredibly odd error. I have a very basic class as follows:
public class ClassA{
private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(ClassA.class.getName());
private boolean trace;
public ClassA(){
trace = log.isTraceEnabled();
}
public void doSomething(){
//does stuff
}
}
I can use this class just fine within my current project. However, when I build, package, and install to my local repo (using Maven, no remote artifact repo set up), other projects cannot properly use this class because they cannot instantiate it. When I try anything like:
ClassA classA = new ClassA();
I get the following compilation error:
ClassA() has private access in [package].ClassA
I've decompiled the .jar in my local repo to ensure the constructor is present and is public - it is. I've also used the -U flag to force updates and the compilation continues to fail. What could be causing this error?
Maybe you have some other ClassA.class file somewhere in the classpath. Check all the jars used by the project that cannot call the constructor: one of them should contain an old version of your class.
My only thought is that you have a problem with your package. Make sure to define the package at the top of the source file for classA using the package keyword. When you call it ensure that the file is in include list with the include keyword. You could be running into the error because ClassA exists in some default package and that is what you are actually calling instead of calling your locally made ClassA class. The code you posted looks fine and you have already double checked to ensure the changes have taken effect in your repository.
//for those with Kotlin-Java mixed projects:
If the said file (With constructor) is in Kotlin and is being used in Java:
Instead of A a = new A(); //which causes the said error
Use A.INSTANCE. …
I have this error, where write "private", instead "public" for class constructor;
I get this error:
Exception in thread "http-server" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/jigmonitor/ReplyServer
but I don't undestand why. Could someone explain why does this happen?
This is the class that causes the problem:
public class ReplyServer implements Serializable
{
public ReplyServer()
{
super();
}
}
It looks like the class you're defining isn't being found by something that's trying to load it. In my experience this is caused by one of three problems:
Your package declaration for the class is not correct. In this case something on the http-sever thread is expecting your class to be declared in the package org.w3c.jigmonitor.
Your source file is not located in the correct directory. In this case, your source file should be located in a directory structure like "org/w3c/jigmonitor/", providing that's the package you actually want.
The path of the compiled class for ReplyServer is not in the classpath of your JVM. You can check this by looking at the classpath used to start your JVM and seeing if the class is actually there or not. In most generic setups servlet setups there will be a "WEB-INF/classes" folder for you to go poke around in.
Good luck!
(The link David posted gives a ton of information on this type of issue and the possible causes. I would recommend tucking that away for later)
class HelloObject {
void speak() {
System.out.println("Hello (from object)!");
}
}
class HelloTester {
public static void main(String[] args) {
HelloObject object = new HelloObject();
object.speak();
}
}
When I change the "HelloTester" class name to something like "HelloTester2", the program suddenly works. The class file is called ClassesBegin.java.
Why does the java program not work when I try to change the name of the class?
EDIT: Sorry I should have clarified more. I changed the class name to HelloTestera and this is the error I get:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloTester
But it works even when the file name has nothing to do with a class name. It works with HelloTester when the file name is ClassesBegin.java
You need to change the file name, not just the class name.
In Java, the .java and .class names have to be identical to the class name.
Hence, each class has to go to a separate file with its name so that a separate .class file is created.
Putting two different classes in the same file is a C++ practice that works with its compilation model, not with Java.
Edit: User ended up clarifying what caused his error, so obviously my answer here is not relevant. All the above applies to public classes. You can pull that off for package-level classes though I have to say that I consider that a horrible practice. If you're going to have something used by multiple classes in your package, give it its own file. If it's used just by one class, make it an inner class...
"EDIT: Sorry I should have clarified more. I changed the class name to HelloTestera and this is the error I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloTester But it works even when the file name has nothing to do with a class name. It works with HelloTester when the file name is ClassesBegin.java"
The file name and the class name must match if the class is public.
If you chagned the class name to "HelloTestera" but ran "java HelloTester" (which is what java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloTester would indicate) then the issue is that you passed the wrong class name to "java".
But save yourself a lot of time and name the class and the file the same thing and keep it at one top level class per file. A simple way to "force" that is to make all of your classes public for now (you can only have one public class per file). This will really save you from making some mistakes.
You are allowed to have as many non-public classes in your ClassesBegin file as you like in terms of compilation. But only the public (ClassesBegin in this case; until you change the name of the file) is able to be used externally.
In particular, the main() method must be public, and in a public class to be able to be found by java. Rename your file to HelloTester to make it work.
Or - rename the HelloTester class in your IDE, which probably is relaming the file automatically, since it has a main method, and the IDE knows that it needs to be the public class...
The easiest way to do this is:
1) only one top level class per file
2) the name of the class and the name of the file must match (name and CasE)
This makes it easier to find you classes (the name of the class is the name of the file) and you don't wind up with some odd issues where the compielr cannot find all of the classes to copmpile.
Java also has a restriction where the name of a public class 100% must be the same as the name of the file. The restriction is only on public classes (or interfaces or enums). You can have as many non-public types as you want in a file... but don't do that - stick with one top level class/interface/enum per file.
You write:
I changed the class name to HelloTestera and this is the error I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloTester
It seems you are not actually running the renamed class but the old one. Did you call Java with the new changed class name? Did you recompile the file before running the class?
After renaming the class, you should first run:
javac ClassesBegin.java
And then:
java HelloTestera
Which for me yields:
Hello (from object)!
Usually, when using an IDE, these issues are handled for you (compile before running).
