00:01 | Welcome to the tutorial on Errors and Debugging using Eclipse. |
00:07 | In this tutorial,we are going to learn |
00:10 | what are the possible error while writing a simple Java Program, |
00:14 | how to identify those errors and rectify them using eclipse. |
00:20 | For this tutorial we are using
Ubuntu 11.10 and Eclipse 3.7 |
00:27 | To follow this tutorial you must know |
00:30 | how to create and run a Java Program in Eclipse.
|
00:33 | If not, for relevant tutorial please visit our website as shown [1]http://spoken-tuitorial.org |
00:41 | In a simple Java program, the typical errors could be. |
00:45 | Missing semicolon(;) |
00:47 | Missing double quotes(" ") around the message |
00:50 | Mis-match of filename and classname and |
00:52 | And Typing the print statement in lower-case |
00:55 | We shall write a program and then make each of these errors and see what happens in Eclipse |
01:04 | Here we have the Eclipse IDE and the project used for the HelloWorld tutorial |
01:11 | We shall create a new class in the project and use it New Class. Let us name the class Error Free and select methods stubs public static Void main |
01:37 | Let us minimise the package explorer. Remove the comments and add the print statement to the few errors |
02:23 | In Eclipse, the line which has the error will be indicated with a red cross mark on the left margin.
|
02:35 | In this case, the System.out.println line has an errors and hence their is the red cross mark on the left. |
02:44 | The list of errors is displayed by hovering the mouse over the cross mark. |
02:51 | The first error displayed is syntax error insert semi-colon to complete block statements |
02:58 | This is because we have to end every statement of a program with a semicolon.
|
03:03 | So, let us insert semicolon at the end of the statement.
|
03:08 | Save the file with Ctrl s.
|
03:16 | notice that once we add the semi-colon and save the file, the first error is gone.
|
03:21 | their is only one error now which says; hello world cannot be resolved to a variable, which means to display any message on the console the message has to be included in double quotes.
|
03:37 | Without the quotes, Java thinks that HelloWorld is the name of a variable.
|
03:41 | Let us add double quotes before and after the message, |
03:55 | Ctrl s to Save. We see that the red cross mark have gone and the program is error free. So let us run the program and see what happens. |
04:10 | Run as 'Java applications
|
04:15 | We see that the message has been printed on the console. |
04:22 | Let us look at the next error.
|
04:25 | It happens due to a mismatch of file name and class name.
|
04:29 | It does not happens usually on Eclipse.
|
04:31 | This is because we use the New Class wizard to create a file and eclipse
|
04:39 | creates a file automatically |
04:41 | But if we create a Java file outside of Eclipse and add it to a project, their is the chance of the error
|
04:47 | So let us stimulate the error , by changing the class name.
|
04:59 | Since Java is case-sensitive, now the class name and file name do not match .
|
05:09 | Notice that , there is a red cross mark on the left margin. |
05:14 | And error message reads The public type errorfree must be defined in its own file.
|
05:20 | Also notice that the word errorfreeis underlined in red colour. |
05:29 | Eclipse offers intelligent fixes and we have 2 fixes available here
|
05:35 | The first one is rename compilation unit to errorfree java |
05:39 | The second one is 'rename the type to errorfree . |
05:43 | The fix that we are looking to is the second one. And we see that once you rename the file the class back to errorfree the error here is missing.
|
06:03 | The next error happens due to typing mistakes in the print statement.
|
06:09 | Let us replace the capital S with a small s. |
06:15 | We notice that their is the red-cross mark
|
06:18 | And error message reads system cannot be resolved.
|
06:23 | This means, Java is expecting a class or object or a variable by the name system.
|
06:28 | But there is nothing like system object in the code. |
06:33 | So let us look at the possible fixes.. |
06:39 | there are 11 fixes out of these, fix that we are looking for is the eighth option
|
06:48 | Change to 'System' (java.lang)
|
06:58 | You can see that once we change it to capital 'S' the error is missing. |
07:06 | here is how you identify errors in Java using eclipse and rectify them |
07:15 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
07:18 | In this tutorial we have seen |
07:20 | what are the typical errors while writing a Java program and |
07:23 | how to identify them and rectify them using Eclipse. |
07:30 | As an assignment for this tutorial, find out the error in the code given below and fix them |
