This is probably a reallly simple error. and a really simple fix.
Thanks for any help

I'd like to help, but I've never used the command/executor interface!

This is where you're crashing:

Code:

getCommand("lottery").setExecutor(new CommandExecutor() {

I won't try to push the Persistence command dispatch on you, since you're not using Persistence- but I will say that if you've only got one command, it's probably easier to just override onCommand rather than do all of that

If you move all of that code to onCommand, it'd look something like this:

Code:

@Override
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String commandLabel, String[] args) {
    if (!cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("lottery")) return false;

... Here goes your command-handling code...

I took the liberty of changing this in your code, and also adding a pom for you, if you want to use Maven. However, this is a bit of a pain when linking to other non-Maven plugins- I don't have iConomy, for instance, so I wasn't able to really build your code (which may mean that what I changed is broken, but it should give you the idea...)

PrivateLotto.zip

I'm not really sure what the executor interface is for, honestly- it seems a lot like the dispatch interface I made, but with a different javascripty API from the javascripty API I've got. Anyway, I don't think you need it- until they deprecate onCommand anyway

 

Thankyou! so so much!
It seems to be working correctly
You sir. Are a genius!

My commands dont do anything
iPhysX issued server command: lotto
Unknown console command. Type "help" for help.

 

Oops! I should've mentioned that you need a plugin.yml, since I didn't see one in your zip

You've got to put your commands in there (just the root commands), and you may as well stick your permissions in there while you're at it, too- you'll need them soon enough.

Here is NetherGate's plugin.yml, as an example.

Something like this should do the trick for you, I think:

Code:

name: PrivateLotto
main: com.iPhysX.PrivateLotto
version: 0.01
website: http://forums.bukkit.org
author: iPhysX
description : Gambling!
commands:
  lottery:
    description: Administer the Lotto
    usage: lottery <params>
permissions:
  Lottery:
    description: Lottery permissions
    type: map
    map:
      commands:
        description: Lottery console command permissions
        type: map
        map:
          lottery:
            description: If true, they can use lottery commands
            type: boolean
            default: false

Though, due to the lameness of YML, you'll probably have issues just copy+pasting that- use it as reference, and consider it an exercise to write your own, I guess

 

Thanks alot!
Everything is working perfect
Real nice of you
