Compiling errors and return methods

The error is invalid method declaration; return type required
public Term(double c, int d)
Thanks
public Term(double c, int d)
      coeff = c;
      degree = d;
      Multiplies a term.
      @param other the other term
      @return the new term after mulitiplication
   public Term multiply(Term other)
      return new Term(coeff * other.coeff, degree + other.degree);
      Adds a coefficient.
      @param c the coefficient to add
   public void add(double c)
      coeff += c;
      return c;
      Gets the coefficient.
      @return the coefficient
   public double getCoeff()
      return coeff;
      Gets the degree.
      @return the degree
   public int getDegree()
      return degree;
   private double coeff;
   private int degree;
}

I bet this means your enclosing class isn't called Term
is there an enclosing class at all ? what are those two declarations at the end ? member variables ?
When posting code, take care that the curly braces match, please (ie dont post half blocks of code)

  • Compiler Error, Missing Return Statement

    This line of code for the begining of a method that reads a file always throws the compiler error, missing return statement. I can't figure out how to fix it!
    public String[] read(InputStream list) throws Exception {
    Could someone please help?

    you might need to post more code, but basically the
    compiler is complaining because you do not have a
    return statement at the end of your method.
    if you do not have a return statement (with a matching
    return type) then the compiler will complain. If you
    don't understand this then post the code to your
    method and we can get it fixed.
    public String[] read(InputStream list) throws
    Exception {
    String[] stringArray;
    return stringArray;
    The code is the most complex I have written so far but here is some of it. (the begining and the end)
    public String[] read(InputStream list) throws Exception {
    if (list != null) {
    String[] stringArray = null;
    try {
    while {
    //add strings to string array
    }//end of while
    return stringArray;
    }// end try
    catch{
    }//end of method

  • Compile Error: missing return statement

    anyone knows why the following program yields compile error "missing return statement??"
    class LengthTest
         public int stringLength(String s)
         {     int len = s.length();
              if (len <= 5) return 5;
              else if (len <= 10) return 10;
              else if (len <= 20) return 20;
    //          else return 30;
    If I add "else return 30" statement, then it can stop the error. Any ideas??

    You might know that the string length will never be more than 20, but the compiler does not. So it forces you to supply a return statement that will be executed no matter what the string length is.

    Hi,
    Please apply the following correction manually.
    1. Go to transaction ST03N
    2. Change user from 'Administrator' to 'Expert Mode'.
    3. Go to Collector and performance analysis -> Performance database
       -> Monitoring database -> Contents
    4. Search where further info contains the string "h/2"
    like the following monikeys:
      - 'days  h/2'
      - 'weeks  h/2'
      - 'months  h/2'  
    5. Double click on each, so that they become red and show ** delete
    6. Finally SAVE
    This will remove the corresponding database related history up to the deletion date. It will accumulate anew afterwards.
    How can I identify the monikey that has to be deleted?
    When you load the text of the dump and then jump off to the break point of the debugger you may find the error break point look like:
    "IMPORT HIST2 FROM DATABASE MONI(DB) ID MONIKEY".
    To find the right monikey entry causing the dump you can search for the word 'MONIKEY' within the text of the dump. This can be 'days  h/3' or
    'tabgrowth  2'...
    You can then go back to the procedure above and search where further info contains the monikey that you found in the text of the dump.

    Did you checked SM13 or SMQ1? that´s the probable cause for that error, now you should open an OSS note or start all over again.

    1. Call transaction SMQ1 and check whether all queues in all clients (client = '', queue name 'MCEX') have been processed. To process the queues, start the collective run report for each application in the displayed clients. If you no longer need the data in the BW system, deactivate the relevant extraction queues and DataSource in the LO cockpit (transaction LBWE) and delete the queue entries in transaction SMQ1.
    2. If you use the V3 update that is not serialized (usually only for application 03): Start collective run report RMBWV303. Then check the update orders in transaction SM13. If there are incorrect update orders in transaction SM13, correct the orders and then start the collective run report again. If you no longer require the update orders, you can delete them. There may be inconsistencies between tables VBMOD and VBHDR. For further information about this, see Notes 652310 and 67014.
    3. Before the upgrade, delete the contents of the setup tables. Execute report RMCEX_SETUP_ENTRIES to find out which setup tables still contain entries. You can use transaction LBWG to delete the contents of the setup tables for all clients.
    Unfortunately the check that the system carries out during the upgrade or when you import a Support Package does not display all affected applications. Therefore, Note 1083709 provides a check report that you can use to determine all affected applications and tables or queues.

    Hi Jacob,
    In order to resolve this issue you have to unlock the shadow system and activate the table.
    Procedure for unlocking shadow system
    go to you bin directory (i.e) /usr/sap/SID/upg/abap/bin
    ./SAPup unlockshd SID
    After unlocking login to shadow system client 000 and fix the above errros.
    Remember to lock the shadow system before repeating the phase again.
    Locking Shadow system : go to bin directoty and issue the command ./SAPup unlockshd SID

  • FPGA Compile error and cannot find the compilatio​n server

    Hi,
    My name is Bonghun. I recently installed the Labview 2011; previously, I installed 2010 and Labview worked very well.
    I am using a Compact Rio (cRIO 9022 and chassis 9114).
    I installed Labview 2011, Real time and FPGA modules including crio 4.0, Xilinx 10.1 and 12.4.
    When I compile a FPGA.vi, it doesn't compile FPGA.vi.
    Labview requests the message which ask to select compile server. After selecting the local compile server, Labview
    requests at each step again and again.
    Error number is Error - 123002. occured at niFpgaCompileFarm_OpenJob.vi
    I tried to remove all programs and re-install several times but still I could not find the solution.
    Please help me and let me know what is problem in my system.
    Thank you.

    Trouble in compile.ppt ‏179 KB

    I am having this issue with LabVIEW 2012 running in Windows XP on a PXI-1042Q to run an FPGA on cRIO-9075.
    I had no problem running through the process on my office PC with the same Software/Modules/Drivers installed. Compiler ran without problems.
    I ported my project over to the PXI Chassis and cannot compile because CompileWorker closes right after intermediate files finish generating. I am using Local Server and all the necessary modules including Xilinx are installed (I uninstalled EVERYTHING and did a complete reinstall also and still get the same result). 
    When the Compilation Status Window comes up, it says Attempting to connect to compile server and CompileWorker immediately says it has Encountered a Problem and needs to close. The Compilation status Window gives me a message saying:
    "LabVIEW FPGA: The compilation cannot be performed by the compile worker. The compile worker may be configured incorrectly for this compilation, or it may be in an error state."
    I also tried making a new project with a simple FPGA VI and tried compiling and got the same results.
    Any thoughts?

  • Form path in call_form and compilation error and status bar.

    Dear all,
    what should be the path in the call_form?
    my forms (developed in form 6i) give error when i run it in forms 9i. i have already compiled. with the form 9i.
    the status bar is invisible when running in the browser.
    i am new to developer 9i.
    thanks
    Muhammad Nadeem

    Hi:
    When you call the forms in the subdirectories, you need to use the full path. Example:
    CALL_FORM('c:\forms\D1\some_form');
    Of course, you realize that this makes your forms less portable and could in the future cause more problems than it solves. Is there any reason you cannot just keep all your forms in one directory and possibly use a prefix to manage them if they belong to different sub-applications?

    Thank you all for the sggestions. The error was exactly due to what you mentioned above. I fixed that by drawing the lines on another JPanel and it is working now.
    But I have a bigger problem. How to make a JPanel transparent. I have to draw lines on a video. The panel for drawing lines is opaque and so I can draw lines only if I am able to see the video. setOpaque(false) does not seem to work. I am posting my code below. Please see if you can help me out.

    - - - - code below - - - - - -
    import java.applet.Applet;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ClickMe extends Applet implements MouseListener {
    private Spot spot = null;
    private static final int RADIUS = 7;
    public void init() {
    addMouseListener(this);
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
    // draw a black border and a white background
    g.setColor(Color.white);
    g.fillRect(0, 0, getSize().width - 1, getSize().height - 1);
    g.setColor(Color.black);
    g.drawRect(0, 0, getSize().width - 1, getSize().height - 1);
    // draw the spot
    g.setColor(Color.red);
    if (spot != null) {
    g.fillOval(spot.x - RADIUS,
    spot.y - RADIUS,
    RADIUS * 2, RADIUS * 2);
    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent event) {
    if (spot == null) {
    spot = new Spot(RADIUS);
    spot.x = event.getX();
    spot.y = event.getY();
    repaint();
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event) {}
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent event) {}
    public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent event) {}
    public void mouseExited(MouseEvent event) {}
    - - - - - - end ClickMe.java code - - - - -
    I thought maybe it was b/c the Spot was capitalized, but I changed that to l/c and that didn't help. This code is, of course, taken right off of this page:
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/concepts/practical.html
    The other thing that's happening, is that when I try to run the NetBeans IDE 3.6, I get an error "Cannot load jvm.dll." I know there are jvm.dll's on this machine, but maybe they're in the wrong directory. I haven't messed with anything, just d-loaded the whole j2se SDK 1.4.1 and i'm already snafu'd. But then, I'm a newbie, so go ahead make fun. But, if you can, offer advice.
    thx in advance!

    I seem to be compiling right, b/c I was able to compile the classic HelloWorld.java ok and I can compile the spot.java file ok. I see what looks to be a valid spot.class file after I compile. If you're really bored, I could describe exactly how I'm launching the cmd.exe and how I point successfully to the javac.exe, but, newbie that I am, can we just go on faith that I'm doing that step right? And I also tried re-compiling the Spot.java file first, trashing the original ClickMe.java file so that everything was sequential. I'm wondering if this has something to do with the IDE & that jvm.dll out of whack.....
    As for the Netbeans IDE, I'm going to see if I can reinstall that separately. The whole SDK maybe didn't unpack correctly, who knows.
    But thanks for responding......

  • I try to generate a chm file over the net and I get a compiling error message

    Hi all,
    I am trying to generate chm files over the net, and the same project when I am generating the same chm locally works fine, however when I am attempting to generate the same chm on a network location, it gives me a compiling error and aborts the generation. It is also keeping the chm file open afterwards, so I have to reboot the machine.
    It is RH7 working on a Windows XP Pro 32 bit.
    Thank you

    It is not a project issue. RoboHelp is just not designed to work that way but like a lot of things, some people can use them outside what they were designed for. However, just because some people can work that way, it does not follow everyone can.
    I've seen people with projects on a network and they say have been doing it for years so it must be OK. A while later they come back and say the problem is fixed since moving it locally.
    Sorry but it looks like you are stuck with working the way you do or getting your colleague to do it. It might be as simple as he is on a different bit of your network.

  • Compile error: Eclipse confuses Type with Window.Type

    Hi there,
    I'm using Eclipse Luna (Version: Luna Service Release 1a (4.4.1)) and JDK 1.8.0_31.
    Our projects are build with Maven. Maven build works without any problems and also our Netbeans users do not have any issues.
    But Eclipse shows compile errors and it seems, that it confuses the generic Java Type with java.awt.Window.Type which was introduced with Java 1.7.
    I created the following minimized example, which reproduces the compile problem.
    This class creates a instance of MyDialog which uses the generic Java Type:
    public class TypeTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    String str = new String();
    MyDialog<String> dialog = new MyDialog<String>();
    String x = dialog.getValue(str);
    And this is the implementation of the dialog of type Type:
    import javax.swing.JDialog;
    public class MyDialog<Type> extends JDialog {
    public MyDialog() {
    super();
    public Type getValue(Type value) {
    return value;
    Eclipse persists that for getValue in MyDialog the Type is a Window.Type, which is wrong!
    This is the compile error message:
    The method getValue(Window.Type) in the type MyDialog<String> is not applicable for the arguments (String)
    Since it works without any issues for the maven build and the netbeans users, it seems to me that this is an Eclipse issue or bug? Or can someone give me a hint, how this can be solved?
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Daniel

    I just found that this question has never been answered, and from a cursory look I wasn't actually sure if this is a bug or not.
    Turns out I already wrote a little "essay" on what seems to be the same issue, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=396378#c6
    Bottom line: JLS doesn't seem to specify how to interpret / handle a conflict between an inherited member type and a same-named type parameter.
    This seems to impliy that both implementations, javac and ecj - although different - are both valid wrt JLS.
