setTypeIdAndData deprecated, need way of converting Byte data into Material

Hi,

I've been looking at implement this https://bukkit.org/threads/pasting-loading-schematics.87129/ code into my plugin. Unfortunately, the method setTypeIdAndData is deprecated so I need to find another way. In the solutions I have found online, people suggest using BlockData instead.

This solution should work fine, but I need a way of converting the existing byte data I have (which the code pulls from the schematic) into a Material. Is there a way of doing this? Perhaps an inbuilt functionality I have missed?

Cheers

 

@Caedus You can set the BlockData using:
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/s...Data-org.bukkit.block.data.BlockData-boolean-

Version 1.13 removed item IDs so no, there's no way to do that.
If you're using a version below 1.13, you'll have the Material#getMaterial(int id) method.

 

Unless blockdata is now stored different in schematics, how do WorldEdit and other APIs correctly interpret & paste byte data into blocks? It must still be possible somehow, right?

 

@Caedus Although it's deprecated, you should still be able to use BlockState#getRawData() and BlockState#setRawData(byte).
