Cannot invoke my set method

[Peter Hammar]

  
                        if (yesNo.equals("J")) {
                            Kolli koll = new Kolli();
                            koll.setUtensilie(1);
  

setUtensilie( int) cannot invoke setUtensilie() in Kolli is the error I get.

Any one with a good answer, please?

Help yourself, please analyze your Kolli class for method setUtensilie().
Is this method takes any argument ? Is it private ?

[Peter Hammar]

Hi!

This is the method in the Kolli class:

 public int setUtensilie() {
 return setUtensilie();
}
  

Maybe it should take an int as an argument?

That isn't a "set" method at all.

Peter, why don't you try out your doubt.

[fred rosenberger]

public int setUtensilie() {  
   return setUtensilie();  
}  

Do you really want this method to do nothing but call itself?

In which class this method belongs to? And if that method, doesn't expect any arguments, then you can't give it. And check in that class, whether there are any other overloaded method, which takes int as argument? After all, in your method, you call itself, ultimately, there will be a StackOverFlowException.
