Really need Help

[TeeTee123]

Please Help,
I’m trying to setup an application that allows a user to build an ice cream cone, I managed to get the Exception file to compile, but the IceCreamCone file gives me the following error message when I try to compile, I think the problem is in the exception file constructor but not sure how to fix:

IceCreamCone.java:16: cannot find symbol
symbol : constructor IceCreamConeException()
location: class IceCreamConeException
throw(new IceCreamConeException());
^
1 error

Can anyone tell me what I am not seeing, I don’t have a lot of experience and in desperate need of guidance.

public class IceCreamConeException extends Exception
{

  int scoops, scps;
  String flavor,flav;

 public IceCreamConeException(String flavor, int scoops)
 {

   flavor = flav;
   scoops = scps;

 }


} 
   


import javax.swing.*;

 public class IceCreamCone
 {

   private String flavor;
   private int scoops;

   public static int SCOOP_LIMIT = 3;
   public IceCreamCone(String flav, int scps) throws IceCreamConeException
   {

     flavor = flav;
     scoops = scps;
     if(scoops > SCOOP_LIMIT)
        throw(new IceCreamConeException());

   }



}  




import javax.swing.*;

import javax.swing.*;

 public class ThrowIceCreamCone
 {

   public static void main(String[] args)
   {

     int scps;
     string flav;
     String input;

   
   flav = input;

   public ThrowIceCreamCone()


   {

      setFlavor();
      setScoops();

   }


input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "How many scoops of ice cream would you like?");
   scps = Integer.parseInt(input);

   input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "what flavor of ice cream would you like?");




  try
  {

     IceCreamCone ic = new IceCreamCone(flav, scoops);
      
     JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Your ice cream flavor is" + flav + " and has " + scoops + "scoops");

  }


  catch(IceCreamConeException exception)
  {

     JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, exception.getMessage());

  }


}

Quite same question have discuss several times on our community. May be all are from the same class, everyone get the same assignment.

You get the error on this line,

throw(new IceCreamConeException());

saying that you don't have that constructor in your relevant class. Basically you don't have define the default constructor. If you define non-default constructor in a class VM not automatically call the default constructor. You must define it if you want to use.

As a smart person says: Use an appropriate Subject. "Help, urgent!" isn't one.

"really need help" is another example of an inappropriate and useless subject

What????????????

[Fubarable]

The title of your thread here is your best way of broadcasting to us just what your problem is, kind of like the headline of a newspaper. Just as if you create a decent and informative newspaper headline, more people will read the article, if you create a decent and informative Thread subject heading more people will read your thread and help you.

Which do you think is more informative, this?
"Error when throwing exception"

or this?
"Really need help"

What????????????

Just look at my signature, may be fishtoprecords pointed on that.

And also, don't keep quite. If you have found the solution better to mention here. Seems you are not even look at the thread for a long time.

Not "may be" but for sure.

Someone can say that before me. Because I heard it from one of my University lecturers.
