Solved Getting things from Config

Hello.

I have a custom config file and everything works untill i get a NPE when trying to get the owner of the consig file. But a wierd thing is that it sends me a message saying the exact name of the owner and it works when i get the player via string name from bukkit and sends him a message that way but it seems it cannot peform checks. Have tried unsuccsessfully in nearly 3 h now so i thought that i should post it here.

Code

Code:

player.sendMessage(NameLocation.getString("Owner"));
    String owner = NameLocation.getString("Owner");
   
    if(Bukkit.getPlayer(NameLocation.getString("Owner")) == player){

Would love some help

player cannot be resolved in code snippet.

 

I've tried with playernames like this if(player.getname == NameLocation.getString("Owner")){
And such but it doesen't work.

 

please be aware what happens when you use the equality operator with objects.

 

I googled it and it said that i should put them as int hashcodes and then compare them
But i gave the same error

int hash = playerName.hashCode();
int hash2 = NameLocation.getString("Owner").hashCode();
if(hash == hash2)


Thanks for helping me.

 

Calling any method on null will throw a NPE

 

Im feeling like such a noob but what in my code is giving an npe i can't really tell the whole system works just that the console is spammed.

St1 = new String(NameLocation.getString("Owner"));
st2 = new String(playerName);

if(St1.equals(st2)){

I have Public object st1; and st2;
In the top.

 

We are not the ones with the full stack trace nor the full source code.

 

Okey sorry i'l search around some more hours.
