    Default How to Java code onto Eclipse and make it work?

    Hello guys,

    I am confused as to how copy code for a game, Connect 4, onto Eclipse and make it work.
    The problem is I am not sure whether to create a new 'Package' and paste the code there or make a 'Class' and paste it there or whether it's a combination of both.

    Or maybe I need an interface....

    Here is the code:

    <package Default;
     
    import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import java.awt.Color;
    import java.awt.Container;
    import java.awt.Dimension;

    Default Re: How to Java code onto Eclipse and make it work?

    Moved to IDE section.

    If you want help with the code, describe your problems and edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    You DIDN'T NEED to post all of that code, incorrectly to boot. Please read the Announcement topic at the top of the sub-forum to learn how to properly post code and other useful guidance.

    Is this the first thing you've ever done or tried to do in Eclipse? If so, do a simple HelloWorld tutorial in the IDE to learn the basics of using it. You can get back to the turorials/samples by selecting "Help", the "Welcome".

    Good luck.

    Yes, this is my first post here. Sorry for posting it in the wrong place.

    I read the Beginners Eclipse Tutorial and found it to be helpful. However, I am still not sure as to how my code will work since it has many classes not just and I wonder if I need an Interface?

    I don't think you know what an Interface is, so I'm not sure why you keep wondering if it is some kind of Holy Grail to solve your problems. Stop it.

    In the tutorial, you should have started a new project. You may have created a new package in that project. Either in the new package or in the default package (which Eclipse tells you is to be avoided), you created a new class called HelloWorld. In the new class HelloWorld, you typed code that would be compiled and run. You can do the same for this game code, except instead of typing the new code for each class, you'll copy from the stuff you downloaded and paste it into each class. To do that:

    Create a new project, and in the new project create a package. Call them whatever you want. In the new package, create a new class for each of the classes you posted with the same name as each of them. I have no idea how many there are. Copy the classes one at a time and paste them into the classes you just created. You should be able to copy over the entire new class except leave the line at the top that declares the package.

    I'm sure you'll have errors to clean up when you're done. Eclipse will help with that.
