The constructor Bucket(int) is undefined

**yairku** · 05-09-2011, 05:15 PM

Hello
I am trying to practice Java, I have a test on Wednesday.
When I try to write this:
Bucket[] arr= new Bucket[6];
arr [0]= new Bucket(6);
The underlined text, new Bucket(6) is underlined in red, and the reason is: "The constructor Bucket(int) is undefined".
The class Bucket has no problems in its constructor, and it is imported to my class correctly.
The constructor of the Bucket class,
public Bucket (int capacity)
{
this.capacity = capacity;
this.currentAmount = 0;
}
requires only one int operator.
So what is the problem??
Please help me soon!!

The compiler doesn't lie: it really can't find a constructor Bucket(int); post more of your code if necessary.

kind regards,

Okay, it can't find a constructor Bucket(int);
Why that occurs and what should I do in order to fix it?
Thanks

Which contructors are implemented in that Bucket class? And why did you say in your original post that the constructor Bucket(int) was defined? (you even showed us a possible implementation).

kind regards,

The problem has been solved!
I don't know why, but I had to write Bucket(int, String), although it is not written in the Bucket class.
Thank you very much for trying to help,

As Jos has asked, you'll need to show us the code.

I think this is one of those threads that mysteriously comes to a happy end; oh well ...

I'm sure this is one of those threads...
I had to insert a string name for the bucket, because this class is graphic.
If I had read the whole question and not only what I should do, I would not open this thread.
Thank you,
