Re: School Project Help, can't find symbol error.

double tentaBill = iWhat's i?

It's in computeTentativBil method, i'm trying to return a value to main and "i" and set it to tentaBill, then pass tentabill to the next method.
public static double computeTentativeBill(Order theOrder)
         double totalExtreme;
         double totalModerate;
         double totalMinor;
         double i;
         double extremeCost = 999.99;
         double moderateCost = 499.99;
         double minorCost = 99.99;
         totalExtreme = (theOrder.extreme * extremeCost);
         totalModerate = (theOrder.moderate * moderateCost);
         totalMinor = (theOrder.minor * minorCost);
         i = ((totalExtreme + totalModerate) + totalMinor);
                      // Welcome User To Program
         System.out.println("Your Tentative Bill before Taxes is " +i);
         return (i);

Please help with cannot find symbol error. Been struggling all day :(

Hi all. :)
Writing a game for my phone with KToolbar and have been getting a cannot find symbol error for every variable and method I try to use across Classes. I've looked all over and though it seems a common problem I always either don't understand or can't get working the various solutions. Example of my errors:
C:\...\BTK800i.java:197: cannot find symbol
symbol : variable youSayWhat
location: class HelloCanvas
          youSayWhat=key;
          ^
If I try BTK800i.variable or BTK800i.message I get a new error.
C:\...\src\BTK800i.java:184: non-static method newOrdersSarge() cannot be referenced from a static context
          BTK800i.newOrdersSarge();
          ^
Both these errors apply to both variables and methods. It only happens when I'm using methods/variables of one class in another, am I using public and private incorrectly? It doesn't seem to make a difference if I make variables public or leave them private, I'm trying to get to them with a public method within a private class. Is it something else? I really have no idea. :(
Here's my code, it's long enough to be a tiresome read so I've tried to skip what I know isn't relevant.
public class BTK800i extends MIDlet {
     private Display myDisplay;
     private HelloCanvas myCanvas;
     public int youSayWhat;
        //a whole bunch more skipped here, but I'm fairly certain it's not anything that'll help find a solution
     public BTK800i() {
          paused=false;
public void startApp() throws MIDletStateChangeException {
          if( paused ) {
               myCanvas.repaint();
          else {
               myDisplay=Display.getDisplay(this);
               myCanvas=new HelloCanvas();
               myDisplay.setCurrent(myCanvas);
               myCanvas.setFullScreenMode(true);
               youSayWhat=0;
                       //again with the skipping, more code not related
public void newOrdersSarge() {
//whole bunch of code
//other methods skipped
class HelloCanvas extends Canvas {
     public void keyPressed (int key) {
          youSayWhat=key;
          repaint ();
//skippage
}The stuff I skipped is mainly either more of the same sorta thing or maths/writing to screen stuff.
Thanks alot to anyone who helps. I'm really struggling with this. :(
Dan.

But I have been reading them :(
My next-door neighbour unfortunately is an 80-something married man, but I will go have a looksie about static and instances.
I thought the point of public variables was that other classes could use them, is this wrong?
Also does this mean that to use the variables from my BTK class in the HelloCanvas class I need to first instantiate BTK? I don't understand how that works as the code starts running from the BTK class in the first place :S I guess more reading will help with this.
Thanks very much for replying. :)
Edit:
OK I have read up on it but I don't think I found anything I hadn't read before. I tried to make a new class which I could instantiate to hold all the variables and methods I wanted everything to be able to access, but that went disastrously. Am I right in understanding that there are no global variables in Java? :s

Can not find symbol error

I have imported javax.swing.*; and I have a listener for my JList box but when I say impliments ListSelectionListener the compiler says can not find symbol. Can anyone help me on this?

ListSelectionListener is part of the javax.swing.event package, which is not the same as the javax.swing package.

Please help. Cannot find symbol Error!

I have been working on this code for days now. It keeps coming up with errors. The error says cannot find symbol. I will bold the areas that say that. I got it down to 23 from 42 but now I have no idea what the problem is. any help is greatly appreciated!! I only added a couple of them mainly because it is overwhelming. I can add the rest of someone replies. Thank you again. Oh and the Classpath is set right. I am compiling from the desktop where I have the file also. That was the first thing I checked after reading other threads related to this issue. :O)

The error says cannot find symbol.It says more than that. It says what symbol it cannot find, and it points to the line of code where the symbol was used.

          inv.add(product, 3);Ditto.
          JButton next = new JButton("Next");
*here*          next.addProduct(new Product() {JButton doesn't have an addProduct() method.
public Product(int item, int stock, double price) {This constructor doesn't match the constructor you are calling above, and there are no other constructors.
ProductItem = item; *here*You must have a typo. But don't use inital capitals on field names: use them only on class names.
return productItem;Here is evidence that you have a typo. Java is case-sensitive. Either the field is caled 'ProductItem' or it is called 'productItem', not both.
          // bubble sortDo you have to do this for the homework? Bubble sort is never used in real code except by people who don't know what they're talking about. Use Collections.sort().
          super(item,name,units, price);You should be getting a compile error here too. Ther is no such constructor for Product.
          return Contents;And here.

     }I dont understand why I am getting this error, I clearly define the variable.

Yes, but the variable is declared inside a block and so it's local to that block. You can't use it outside its scope, which is the block in which you declared it. Re-read the section of your book about variable scope.

HELP - 'Can't find class' error

I have just bought a new computer with Windows XP and downloaded and installed the new versions of the jdk, jre, etc.
I have written the Hello World program to check that everything works. It compiles fine, but when I try to run I get an error - Can't find class helloworld - and then it exits.
I know that the path variable is set correctly and I used to have to set the classpath as well, but have been told that this is not necessary.
I really need to get this working as have some important programming to do.
Thanks for any help,
Olly

Try this;-
prompt>set CLASSPATH=
.......> return key
prompt>java helloWorld
Hello World!
prompt>
AMAZING!
This works fine. Thanx.
Is there any way to set it so that I dont have to do
the set classpath stuff each time I run a program
though?
CheersWell, set a system variable
CLASSPATH=.;<java_home>\jre\lib\rt.jar
regardws, Thomas

Can't find symbol error with registerFont() - why?

I am using the following code which is essentially the same as I copied from a post of someone for whom it apparently works. I am using JDK6 and Netbeans.
No matter what I do the line containing registerFont() causes Netbeans to flag it with the following error message:
cannot find symbol
symbol : method registerFont(java.awt.Font)
location: class java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment
Here is the code. What do I need to do to get rid of this error?
Thanks!
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.FontFormatException;
import java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class FontLoad {
public Font downloadFont(String filename) throws IOException, FontFormatException{
URL serverStream=new URL("xxxxxxxxxxxx.com");
URLConnection uc=serverStream.openConnection();
System.out.println("Connection established. Downloading font...");
uc.setDoInput(true);
InputStream is=serverStream.openStream();
Font font=Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, is);
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().registerFont(font); // <-----
System.out.println("Font downloaded.");
is.close();
System.out.println("Connection closed.");
font=font.deriveFont(45);
font=font.deriveFont(Font.PLAIN);
return font;
}

Addirional note: This is a java class within a JavaFX application if that is relevant.
It does seem to be relevant - if I create the same class as part of a Java application rether than a JavaFX application it compiles without error. Is the imported java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment different in the tow cases??

Cant find symbol error

why am i getting this "can't find symbol error" in relation to class Function?
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class MYPA5
     public static void main ( String [] args )
          Function myF = new Function( );
          double Func1 = myF.getSum( );
class Functinon
     double x;
     String coeffa = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Give the first Coefficient");
   double a = Double.parseDouble(coeffa);
     String coeffb = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Give the second Coefficient");
     double b = Double.parseDouble(coeffb);
     String coeffc = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Give the third Coefficient");
     double c = Double.parseDouble(coeffc);
     String coeffd = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Give the fourth Coefficient");
     double d = Double.parseDouble(coeffd);
     double sum = a*Math.pow(x,0) + b*Math.pow(x,1) + c*Math.pow(x,2) + d*Math.pow(x,3);
     public double getSum( )
          return sum;
}

Just guessing here...
Because you named it Functinon instead of Function? (but that may just be a typo in your question of course)
or because it is not public and not in the same package as MYPA5?

How can i find my errors during project validation before burning my project

How Can I find the errors during the project validation before burning the project??

Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

     System.out.printf("%s now refers to %s, not %s.\n",
partNumber, newDescription, partDescription);
     partDescription = newDescription;
public String getDescription()
     return partDescription;
public void setPricePerItem( double newPrice )
     if ( newPrice > 0 )
pricePerItem = newPrice;
public double getPricePerItem()
return pricePerItem;
Any tips for helping me out?

System.out.println("Part number:
"+invoice1.getPartNumber;
The + sign will concatenate invoice1.getPartNumber()
after "Part number: " forming only one String.I added the plus sign and it gives me more errors:

Help! Getting the cannot find symbol error.

Hello everyone. I have gone throught my whole program and I am still getting a cannot find symbol error. What does this error mean exactly? Here is the code below. I am trying to color a background using a comobox method.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.ButtonGroup;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.border.EtchedBorder;
import javax.swing.border.TitledBorder;
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import javax.swing.JComboBox;
public class ComboboxFrame extends JFrame
    public ComboboxFrame()
        colorPanel = new JPanel();
        colorPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(PANEL_WIDTH, PANEL_HEIGHT));
        getContentPane().add(colorPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        class ChoiceListener implements ActionListener
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
                setbackgroundColor();
        listener = new ChoiceListener();
        createControlPanel();
        setbackgroundColor();
        pack();
    private void createControlPanel()
      JPanel colorPanel = createComboBox();
      JPanel controlPanel = new JPanel();
      controlPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 1));
      controlPanel.add(colorPanel);
      getContentPane().add(
         controlPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
   public JPanel createComboBox()
      colorCombo = new JComboBox();
      colorCombo.addItem("Red");
      colorCombo.addItem("Green");
      colorCombo.addItem("Blue");
      colorCombo.setEditable(true);
      colorCombo.addActionListener(listener);
      JPanel panel = new JPanel();
      panel.add(colorCombo);
      return panel;
   public void setbackgroundColor()
       String color = (String)colorCombo.getSelectedItem();
       colorPanel.setbackgroundColor(new backgroungColor(color));
       colorPanel.repaint();
   private JPanel colorPanel;
   private static final int PANEL_WIDTH = 300;
   private static final int PANEL_HEIGHT = 300;
   private JComboBox colorCombo;
   private ActionListener listener;
}The line with the error is: colorPanel.setbackgroundColor(new backgroungColor(color));
Here is the second file
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class backgroundTest
    public static void main(String[] args)
        JFrame frame = new comboboxFrame();
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.show();
}Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hello everyone. I have gone throught my whole
program and I am still getting a cannot find symbol
error. "Symbol" here means variable or method name (or maybe class name, but I think it will specifically bitch about classnames in that case).
String foo = "foo";
System.out.println(zoo); // no such variable as zoo. So...
colorPanel.setbackgroundColor(new backgroungColor(color));Looks like colorPanel or setbackgroundColor(new backgroungColor doesn't exist.
Note that spelling and capitalization count. Java's really anal that way.

When I try to open my project, where can I find the requested file 00000.mts2?

When I try to open my project, I am asked where to find file 00000.mts2?
I see almost all scenes in my project in color red with the text 'media off-line'. But it is impossible to find this requested file 00000.mts2 on my computer. What can I do to solve this problem?
Thank you for your answer.
