Question(s) concerning the size of methods and class files

By decadence18, with no replies.

I was looking over some of my code, and I realized that some of my methods are 1000ish lines of code. And a couple of my class files are 16KB. What is considered a large method? What is the max size of a single method? What is the max size (in KB) of a class file? What is considered a large class file? If I'm in excess of some of these, I may attempt to shrink down some classes... Which most likely I'll need help for.

Hello, i've been trying this trick, im writing: <Code Omitted>but it kept saying "at makanan.<init>(makanan.java:19)" can somebody help me? im sorry for my bad english

First of all, it is not a trick. It is where you build the new object (set its field values and initial image -- mainly). What you have in lines 3 and 4 does not do either of these things as far as the created object is concerned. Those lines should be located outside of

where to download scenarios

By Aryanjoshi, with 1 reply.
Replied to by danpost, over 11 years ago:

Download any scenario that has source available to your 'downloads' folder; then cut/paste them into your 'Greenfoot/scenarios' folder. You will then be able to open then using the greenfoot application (menubar options: 'Scenarios>Open file...').

What is the difference between LetterStack and Stack? When you create your letters, you probably give every letter a random int which represent the stack. You could pass the stack itself:

Help! I'm working on this program for class and I need to have it display a score counter and mine isn't working and it doesn't pop up a scoreboard when the game ends please help me!

Replied to by danpost, over 11 years ago:

When does the counter work/not work? when the scenario is running? when you manually execute the 'hit' method on a boid object while the scenario is paused? I am quite sure a Scoreboard object will "pop-up" if you manually ran the 'gameOver' method on the world object; however, it will always display "Score: 9". You should probably check if 'target' is greater than or equal to 13 (instead of just equal to it).

Help with writing a save file?

By decadence18, with 6 replies.
Last reply by decadence18, over 11 years ago:

I'm planning on having it write a second file ever few "acts", and then on startup calling both files and verifying integrity. Also, certain pieces in the game are not allowed to remain on a space for any sort of time, only pass over, so due to this I want to check and make sure that, whether intended or not, there are no pieces in that area when saving. There are other things I want to do as well, but I can't think of them all at the moment. I have a file of them somewhere.

how to make a ball bounce up when it hits the mover and bounce down when it hits the block and also bounce when it hits the edges?

By vela, with 6 replies.
Last reply by danpost, over 11 years ago:

can your please show me the code @danpost

You will find that the code for this is not that simple and straight-forward. You will encounter issues like (1) the ball is limited in the number of directions it travels (a smooth-moving system must by employed); and (2) how does one determine which side of the block is encountered so that the correct axis of movement, horizontal or vertical, can be reversed (truly, the only way is to move the ball back to the moment of contact and check the position of the ball at that point with the position and size of the block).

Network Install Question

Hi Gareth, You may by now have seen the email response from Neil. However, just to elaborate a little further and recap for anyone reading here:

The Group Policy settings you used to hide the C: drive simply make the drive invisible in Windows Explorer and in standard Windows file dialogs. Greenfoot uses the Swing toolkit provided by Java to present its file dialogs, and Swing does not use the standard Windows file dialogs; therefore these Group Policy settings do not affect Greenfoot.
In general, hiding drives in this way gives only the illusion of security

Need Help with Sockets

Last reply by lordhershey, over 11 years ago:

Did quick search found this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25798200/java-record-mic-to-byte-array-and-play-sound now I am to try do see if I can make a chatty thing with java submitting sound bites via http submits. I have not run your program yet, but my initial thoughts is you need to make the sockets flush, and I am not 100% sure of the socket option available in java, but there must be some auto flush feature.
