[SOLVED][1.8] With built JAR, it crashes with NoClassDefFoundError

[jabelar]

My mod runs great in Eclipse, but if I gradlew build and then use the resulting JAR in the actual Minecraft install it crashes.

 

Using the new launcher, I can play vanilla 1.8 okay, and I can play Forge 1.8 okay (suing profile for fml-1.8-8.0.20.1023) okay.  But if I put my JAR in the mods folder it crashes with the following exception.  I don't find the console messages that helpful, as it just mentions a NoClassDefFoundError for a class that works fine when running from Eclipse and then gives trace to fairly general classloader methods.

[Draco18s]

Show the ItemMagicBeans class

[jabelar]

Show the ItemMagicBeans class

 

You're welcome to look at the whole codebase here: https://github.com/jabelar/MagicBeans-1.8fixed

 

Here is the ItemMagicBeans class.  Nothing special:

package com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.items;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.util.StatCollector;

import com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.MagicBeans;
import com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.utilities.MagicBeansUtilities;

public class ItemMagicBeans extends ItemSeedFoodMagicBeans 
{
    private static final ItemStack p_77653_1_ = null;

public ItemMagicBeans() 
    {
        super(1, 0.3F, MagicBeans.blockMagicBeanStalk);
        setUnlocalizedName("magicbeans");
        setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);
    }
    
    @Override
    public String getItemStackDisplayName(ItemStack parItemStack) 
    {
        return (MagicBeansUtilities.stringToRainbow(StatCollector.translateToLocal(getUnlocalizedNameInefficiently(p_77653_1_) + ".name")).trim());
    }
}

 

Also note that this mod works when running from Eclipse.  I think the NoClassDef error can be related to class path problems, but I don't really know what exactly would be wrong.

[Draco18s]

Question:

What the hell is p_77653_1_, why does it have an obfuscated name, and why the hell are you using it to store a string, and why the hell is it always null?

[jabelar]

Question:

What the hell is p_77653_1_, why does it have an obfuscated name, and why the hell are you using it to store a string, and why the hell is it always null?

 

I'm in process of updating my game to 1.8, so there is still some cleanup to do.  That field was just the unlocalized name really, but I was doing some conditional stuff on it (wouldn't always just be name of the item) so didn't want to mess with actual unlocalized name.  Anyway, I removed that and the NoClassDef problem remains.  (Note I really don't think a problem with some string field could be cause of NoClassDef problem for loader, but I appreciate you pointing this field out.)

 

Class now looks like:

 

package com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.items;

 

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import net.minecraft.util.StatCollector;

 

import com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.MagicBeans;

import com.blogspot.jabelarminecraft.magicbeans.utilities.MagicBeansUtilities;

 

public class ItemMagicBeans extends ItemSeedFoodMagicBeans

{

public ItemMagicBeans()

    {

        super(1, 0.3F, MagicBeans.blockMagicBeanStalk);

        setUnlocalizedName("magicbeans");

        setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabMaterials);

    }

   

    @Override

    public String getItemStackDisplayName(ItemStack parItemStack)

    {

        return (MagicBeansUtilities.stringToRainbow(StatCollector.translateToLocal(getUnlocalizedNameInefficiently(new ItemStack(this)) + ".name")).trim());

    }

}

 

 

Note I was also suspicious of the StatCollector class, so I tried the ItemMagicBeans with a simple return ("Magic Beans") and it also fails with NoClassDef error.

[jabelar]

Okay, I think I solved it.  At least I got it working on a different computer just fine.  I think I used the same installer, but some reason on the original computer, the launcher profile references fml-1.8-8.0.20.1023 but with the working computer I just tried the profile references 1.8-Forge11.14.1.1333.

 

Anyway, that explains it -- mismatch with the profile.

[Draco18s]

Why aren't you using the provided item stack and instead creating a new one?

 

    @Override

    public String getItemStackDisplayName(ItemStack parItemStack)

    {

        return (MagicBeansUtilities.stringToRainbow(StatCollector.translateToLocal(getUnlocalizedNameInefficiently(new ItemStack(this)) + ".name")).trim());

    }

[timotheteus]

To anyone, who has got the same problem, NoClassDef when running minecraft with exported jar (in environment everything works), I did an inspection in Intellij and found the SideOnly missing from GuiHandler and Keyhandler. You might have different "hidden" problems, just use the inspection.

[jeffryfisher]

Most modders who raise NoClassDefFoundError when going from Eclipse to jar have made a different (and simple) mistake:  They used Eclipse's export command to build their jars (Jabelar is an experienced modder who did use gradlew build, so that wasn't the problem this time).

 

Without gradle, a mod that works in Eclipse will turn into a jar that fails in a mod folder. This is because Eclipse's export does not reobfuscate class names (or not correctly). The pretty class names we use in the editor will not be found in production-released Minecraft, hence the NoClassDefFoundError <-- EDIT: Oops, method not found errors, my bad.

 

Therefore, most modders finding this thread need to learn this:

Modders must use gradle to make their jars so that the reobfuscation is done correctly.

 

Edited October 27, 2017 by jeffryfisher
Oops, corrected

[Choonster]

The MCP to SRG obfuscation performed by the build Gradle task only changes field and method names, class names are always the same between MCP and SRG.

 

This means that NoClassDefFoundError can't be caused by lack of reobfuscation.

 

Usually it's caused by accessing a client-only class from code that runs on the dedicated server. 

[jeffryfisher]

Thanks for the clarification; I hadn't paid attention to different kinds of names being treated differently.
