[Newb] [1.5.2] Beginning Tutorial - EventHandler can't be resolved

[Targren]

I was hoping to last a little longer before I ran into the stumbling block again, but apparently not. The wiki says that @EventHandler replaced @PreInit, @Init, and @PostInit (I'm guessing @Init goes with the load() method, the other two being rather obvious) for 1.6.x, so I went with the latter.

 

I made sure I've got "cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod" in my imports, which looks to be where they're defined, but I'm not sure if I'm missing something else that's making Eclipse tell me that all three can't be resolved to a type.

1.5.2 was using preinit, init, postinit, continue using them until you get to 1.6.2

That's what I thought, but I'm getting an error thrown at me as of the end of "Basic Modding". 

 

Init cannot be resolved to a type	Generic.java	/Minecraft/src/tutorial/generic	line 29	Java Problem
PostInit cannot be resolved to a type	Generic.java	/Minecraft/src/tutorial/generic	line 34	Java Problem
PreInit cannot be resolved to a type	Generic.java	/Minecraft/src/tutorial/generic	line 24	Java Problem

 

Oddly enough, it does look like it compiles and runs, and Generic is showing up in the mod list. I'll go on a bit and see how far I can get.

in eclipse, ctrl+shift+o (the letter, not zero) will auto-organise your imports

That straightened it right out. Thanks!

 

Maybe you could give me a bit of a hand with the textures? I tried following the steps from the Eclipse wiki page, but I think I'm doing something wrong, since I can't get it to look like the picture. I tried "Add New Folder" from the top line ("Minecraft") since the instructions say right click on the project, from the "src" line just below that so that it would line up with the image and, not paying attention, from the tutorial.generic package (no surprise that didn't work). I also tried both ways: adding "mcp/res" and "mcp/res/mods" but I'm still not having any luck. In case it was just a UI difference between Eclipse versions, I tried compiling and running even if it didn't look just right, but no luck. The item appears, the recipes work, but no textures

Yeah, there's apparently some wonkiness with Eclipse not taking texture resources from there into the bin directory when it builds. The workaround seems to be using eclipse to basically symlink an external resource directory.
