The constructor ItemStack(Material, int) is undefined

[vyroki]

I'm new to modding and trying to add an item to the player's inventory. I keep getting the error "The constructor ItemStack(Material, int) is undefined" and can't find anything to fix it.

public static void Death(PlayerEvent.PlayerRespawnEvent event) {
		Player p = event.getPlayer();
		ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.BAMBOO, 64);
		
		p.getInventory().add(item);
	}

Does anyone have any suggestions for what I'm doing wrong? (1.17 btw)

I am assuming the constructor you're trying to call simply doesn't exist.

 

You can see all available constructors by opening the ItemStack class in your IDE or checking the java docs (Click here)

It appears you have to get an instance of the specific Item first and then pass it to the ItemStack constructor.
Also, it seems like you can retrieve items by their id using Item#getItemById.

The constructor requires and Item and not a Material
