Here is my written code:

And I'm stuck on that I have created a block that have meta but facing hasn't. Please help me...

You're not storing the facing in the metadata in getMetaFromState and you're treating the raw metadata value as both the facing and the variant in getStateFromMeta, which won't work.

 

In getMetaFromState, you need to combine the facing and variant into a single metadata value using bitwise operators and then return it. In getStateFromMeta, you need to extract the facing and variant from the metadata using bitwise operators and then return the IBlockState with these values set.

 

If your block can't have vertical facings, use EnumFacing.getHorizontal instead of EnumFacing.getFront to get the EnumFacing from its index. Use EnumFacing#getHorizontalIndex to get the horizontal index of an EnumFacing.

 

Keep in mind that metadata is limited to 4 bits (16 possible values). If you have 4 possible facings (north, south, east, west), that only leaves room for 4 possible variants (because 4 * 4 = 16).

 

Look at BlockAnvil for an example of a Block with two properties (facing and damage).
