Solved ItemStack to Item

Hi,

i have an onCommand and i want to get the item in the hand of the player
.getItemInHand() is a ItemStack but i need it to be Item
Item item = ((Player)sender).getInventory().getItemInHand();
Item item = (Item)((Player)sender).getInventory().getItemInHand();

But both of them dont work

 

okay a another idea i do item.drop() in on command but then i want it to fire 'PlayerDropItemEvent'
Or is there a another type of dropEvent?

 

Code:

    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String commandLabel, String args[]){
      Player player = (Player) sender;
      if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("tcr")){
        
World world = player.getWorld();
          float X = Float.parseFloat(args[0]);
          float Y = Float.parseFloat(args[1]);
          float Z = Float.parseFloat(args[2]);

          ItemStack item = player.getInventory().getItemInHand();
          ItemMeta im = item.getItemMeta();
          //Item it = (Item) player.getInventory().getItemInHand();
          //sender.sendMessage(X + " - " + Y + " - " + Z);
          im.setLore(Arrays.asList("nopickup"));
          item.setItemMeta(im);
          world.dropItem(new Location(world, X, Y, Z), item); // does not fire PlayerDropItemEvent?
      }
      return false;
     }
    @EventHandler
    public void onDrop(PlayerDropItemEvent event) {
      event.getPlayer().sendMessage("Drop");
      World world = event.getItemDrop().getWorld();
      WitherSkull skull = (WitherSkull) world.spawn(event.getItemDrop().getLocation(), WitherSkull.class);
      skull.setDirection(new Vector(0, 0, 0));
      skull.setVelocity(new Vector(0, 0, 0));
    
      Item item = event.getItemDrop();
      ItemStack is = item.getItemStack();
      ItemMeta im = is.getItemMeta();
        im.setLore(Arrays.asList("nopickup"));
        is.setItemMeta(im);
        skull.setPassenger(item);
    }

What is the problem here?

 

Any examples on that?

 

Got it using

Code:

ItemStack item = player.getInventory().getItemInHand();
Item it = world.dropItem(new Location(world, X, Y, Z), item);
skull.setPassenger(it);

Thanks for your help timtower!

 

Why?!

You shouldn't call internal bukkit events like that, there are API methods that handle the actions you want and additionally fire the events. Firing the events alone isn't guaranteed to do anything at all.

http://docs.codelanx.com/Bukkit/1.8...kkit.Location-org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack-

(Set the inventory slot to null after getting the reference and then drop it)

 

But you would be throwing a false event because now you have two event objects tied to the same real-world event (the single item dropping).

 

@timtower aren't you creating a fake item upon calling this event? I remember that when I called an event it did nothing to the player only to my background running code.

 

You don't create anything. You simply call all the methods that handle the event, but nothing will actually occur.

 

Yes.

 

Player player = (Player) sender
Oh no.... Please no... Tell me that I'm dreaming and this is just a nightmare comming to an end!
XD read my signature.

 

xD thanks mine-care if i execute the command in a console the console gives me a stacktrace on that line
