package statement?
Locked
 
|
hi all - having a bit of trouble getting one NetRexx class to see another. the source files are co-located in the same directory and the are set to be in the same package. In stock Java, it's usually sufficient to specify the same package name and so long as both file locations are defined in the classpath it's not a problem to invoke a method from one inside a method from another. however when i try and do this with NetRexx via Eclipse I get an error telling me the interpreter can't find the method or class I'm invoking. i've been going through the pubs and so far I'm not seeing anything that elucidates the nature of the problem. what am i missing here?
thx! |

Since no one wiser has responded I will try to help a little or at least
provide a path closer to a solution. Unfortunately I don't really understand your request and if that is true for other readers, it is possibly the reason for the lack of responses. Given that lack of understanding and not knowing your background I apologize in advance for covering basic stuff here: NetRexx is primarily an interface to Java - the main program is a "translator" which operates in two modes: compiler and interpreter. The compiler mode translates NetRexx code to Java code and calls a Java compiler to output Java class modules which can then be executed in a JVM (Java Virtual Machine). The interpreter mode creates a structured representation of NetRexx code in memory and then interprets it within the initial JVM context. I am not an Eclipse user but I think that Eclipse handles NetRexx via the compiler mode rather than the interpreter mode so I am a little confused by your statement that you received an "interpreter" error message. Did you actually mean a NetRexx compile error? Or some kind of Java compiler or run time error? Can you provide the actual error message you received? That might help resolve the problem. The NetRexx interpreter normally loads and executes a single module although advanced usage allows additional source modules to be loaded. The compiler can compile multiple sources at once but in some cases dependencies may require compiling module "B" before module "A". Depending on the package name used in the modules, compiled class files need a matching directory structure in order to be located although that is actually a Java requirement as well. It might help to know your package name and the directory structure where you are placing the class files along with the related classpath segment you are using to access them. Sorry I cannot provide more specific help but your note does not provide any details about what you are doing or what error message you are seeing. -- Kermit On 6/23/2014 8:48 AM, David Holiday wrote: > hi all - having a bit of trouble getting one NetRexx class to see another. > the source files are co-located in the same directory and the are set to be > in the same package.

Hi,
Just one thought:- try right-clicking your project and navigate to Build Path -> Configure Build Path. In the pane that opens, select the Source tab - at the bottom is a section to set the build output folder - try a default folder of the "src" folder (i.e. <project name>/src).

hi all, here is the code in question
file netRexxTest1: package nrTest; LOGGER = java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(netRexxTest1.class.getName()) LOGGER.setLevel(Level.INFO) nr2 = netRexxTest2() nr2.buildGUI() file netRexxTest2: package nrTest; import javax.swing. class netRexxTest2 public extends JFrame method buildGUI public setSize(800, 600); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); rootPaneJDP = JDesktopPane() rootPaneJDP.setVisible(1) jif1 = JInternalFrame() jif1.setSize(320, 200) jif1.setLocation(250, 250) jif1.setIconifiable(1) jif1.setMaximizable(1) jif1.setResizable(1) jif1.setVisible(1) rootPaneJDP.add(jif1); setContentPane(rootPaneJDP); setVisible(1); netRexxTest2 compiles without complaint. netRexxTest1 gives this error when I attempt to compile: NetRexx portable processor, version NetRexx 3.01RC2, build 1-20110925-2337 Copyright (c) RexxLA, 2011. All rights reserved. Parts Copyright (c) IBM Corporation, 1995,2008. Program netRexxTest1.nrx 7 +++ nr2 = netRexxTest2() +++ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ +++ Error: The method 'netRexxTest2()' cannot be found in class 'nrTest.netRexxTest1' or a superclass Compilation of 'netRexxTest1.nrx' failed [one error] I tried the fix Dave suggested - no joy. the files in question are co-located in the project src folder. Also, thanks for clearing that bit up about interpreting v compiling. i didn't realize interpreting wouldn't work with multiple files. also, to answer your implied question, in eclipse there's a NetRexx menu that gets added along with the plugin that allows you to specify Interpret, Translate, Compile, Applet. cheers, David |

Sorry, but I have to ask - did you create the package at the Eclipse level
too? And then put the code in src/nrTest?

oh man. I'm feel like such a dink - that was totally it. I completely forgot Eclipse doesn't hold my hand in the same way it would if I was writing stock Java. I'm going to have to be a much more mindful in future - or maybe just use vi or something where I'm not in the habit of letting the IDE do some of the nit-picky work for me.
t/y! David |

It was experience of doing the same that led me to ask
