So I have all the items and the textures and the crafting all working. So I then exported the code to a jar file I then put it in the mods folder and tried to run minecraft. (Because now that the mod is done I need to see if it will work with the real minecraft outside of eclipse.) But when I run it the game crashes and tells me java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: net.SandItems.mod.items.SandPickaxe.getCreativeTab()Lnet/minecraft/creativetab/CreativeTabs;.

Here is the code for SandPickaxe.java.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

package net.SandItems.mod.items;

 

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

import net.SandItems.mod.SandItems;

import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IIconRegister;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemPickaxe;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

 

public class SandPickaxe extends ItemPickaxe {

 

public SandPickaxe(ToolMaterial p_i45347_1_) {

super(p_i45347_1_);

this.setCreativeTab(getCreativeTab().tabTools);

}

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

public void registerIcons(IIconRegister iconRegister) {

this.itemIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon(SandItems.modid + ":" + this.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));

}

 

}

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

So I first tried to import the net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs but it still gave me the same message. Then I tried changing  this.setCreativeTab(getCreativeTab().tabTools); to  this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabTools); but Then it just gave me a crash again. What am I doing wrong?

How did you export it?

In eclipse I clicked file, export, jar 

Hey I don't know if this helps but in eclipse I clicked the button to run the sever and it gave me the same message.

 

[EDIT] never mind about this I changed  (getCreativeTab().tabTools) back to (CreativeTabs.tabTools); and every thing in the eclipse development sever and client but it is still giving me problems when I make my mod in to a jar file and run it with the real minecraft. Would it help if I post the crash report? also I am working on a different mod as well and it is giving me problems too.

Ok I did that and it fails and tells me com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonExption: Unterminated string. What does that mean?

It says. Build failed with an eception. * What went wrong: A problem occured configuring root project 'SandItems'. com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonException: Unterminated string at line 3485 column 49.

 

I am working on a mod pack so I have two mods. This is the code for both the mods.

Could it be that the Crash is caused by this line in the Tool Class ? this.setCreativeTab(getCreativeTab().tabTools); i recommend to use this.setCreativeTabs(CreativeTabs.tabTools);

Ok but if I should not put 2 mods in one workspace then what should I do? If I have to create a new workspace for every mod then I will have to go through the gradlew setupDecompWorkspace for every mod I want to make and my computer will be workspaces every where. but could this be the problem?

Alright well I removed classicBlocks from the workspace but when I use gradlew build it gives me the same error. What does unterminated string mean?

Do you suggest that I delete my current work space and rebuild my mod in a new one to see if that works?

Hey so I don't think it has any thing to do with my code at all. You see I wanted to see if it would work so I tried to create a new workspace, and when I ran gradlew setupDecompWorkspace it then game me the same message. When I first created my workspace I have now I had java7 32-bit but I decided to change that to 64-bit because I was tiered of minecraft messing up all the time. So when I upgraded it it then changed the dir from Program Files (x86) to Program files so I had to change my JAVA_HOME. And now it is giving me that problem. this is how I have my JAVA_HOME set C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_65 and this is how I have it in my system path "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_65\bin"

Could it be because of java 64-bit or do I have something wrong with my Variables?

If you were using Java 32 bit and now have Java 64 bit, and you use Eclipse, you will need the 64 bit Eclipse.  I went throught a similar issue when I updated my Java to 64 bit.

Thanks diesieben07, that worked. One question though. When you run the gradlew build where does it put the .jar file also how do I add a mcmod.info file? I can't figure out how to do that.

Thanks.
