Solved "cannot be resolved or is not a field" in EntityType?

This is the error I get.
ent cannot be resolved or is not a field
and This is my code:
int intEnttype = 0;
EntityType ent = (EntityType.BAT);
Player player = (Player) sender;
switch (intEnttype){
case 1:
ent = EntityType.BAT;
break;
}
Location blockloc = (player.getLocation());
Bukkit.getWorld(player.getWorld().getName()).spawnEntity(blockloc, EntityType.ent);

(Yes thats a HALF FINISHED switch-case block! so please dont comment on that )
Thanks, all help appreciated!

This isn't really enough code to give you much help but you're assigning ent t0 be a Bat and then assigning it to be a bat again..

When I run this code I am not getting any errors so I assume it's due to poor formatting?

Code:

int intEnttype = 0;
EntityType ent = null;
Player player = (Player)sender;
switch (intEnttype) {
    case 1:
        ent = EntityType.BAT;
        break;
    case 2:
        ent = EntityType.COW;
        break;
}
if(ent != null) player.getWorld().spawnEntity(player.getLocation(), ent);

 

Thanks that probably is why...

 

Do you have an import for EntityType?

 

yes. Just testing my plugin now...

Ok solved! (only tested with pigs!) but needs a little tweeking in diferent parts of the command. Thanks AlexLeopioriday. and hapm for helping!

Bukkit.getWorld(player.getWorld().getName()).spawnEntity(blockloc, EntityType.ent);

The red marked part should cause the error.Although every IDE like eclipse should mark that part in the code.
