Solved Quick question and perhaps some help

So I've always used the Craftbukkit jar (as library for my plugins and as the build for my server), I've recently changed to spigot. What my question is that in my plugins, if I don't import spigot, like just craftbukkit.jar, will that affect my plugins? Like, will my plugin don't work at the spigot server? And if I were to add spigot to my external library, would I also have to add craftbukkit? Does it matter if I have both jars in my library (both spiggot and craftbukkit)? Because I tried just using one, my plugin wouldn't work, I tried using both, my plugin would still not work.

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

 

This is a better question to post on the Spigot Forums, but to answer your question, any bukkit plugin will work on a spigot server, providing that the plugin is compiled using the same bukkit/spigot version the server is running, but I'm not sure it's backwards compatible meaning I don't know if you can take a spigot plugin and run it on bukkit. Since that spigot plugin could be using spigot's methods.

 

Spigot is a wrapper for Bukkit. The spigot jar should contain the entire Bukkit API.

The problem you are having seems to be an issue with your setup, not spigot. I was able to remove the bukkit.jar from my buildpath and replace it with the spigot.jar with no problems whatsoever.

What is your error in particular? Can you give us a screenshot, or a description?

Hopefully you guys can spot something that I can't see!

There's no Errors! Plugin won't load (it doesn't even attempt to load), I've seen through the console multiple times, it just doesn't show there, but the .jar is in the plugins folder.

 

I only had a quick look, but I assume it has something to do with economy.

Also, you should log enable / disable messages, bukkit already does this

 

Can you show me the jar artifact

 

I don't see how it can have anything with the economy to do though.. everything should be fine, but I'll try to remove the entire economy part.

@leet4044 ??

 

@DoggyCode™

The most common causes of a plugin not loading are:
1) The "main" node in your plugin.yml is wrong.
2) You exported your jar wrong. Ensure you are exporting a non-runnable jar which includes your .classpath and that you are placing it in your /plugins/ folder in your server directory.

Try typing /reload in your server and see if your plugin shows up.

 

@MrBlackIsBack Hmm, nvm, I fixed it. Apparantly this didn't work:

Code:

public static String prefix = config.getString("prefix") + ChatColor.RESET + " ";

[/code]
I think it's because the string gets something from the config, and the config wasn't generated before the plugin was enabled..

@mariosunny I did everything correct ^

 

Good to know. Though I would have expected the server to crash, not simply not recognize your plugin.

 

Solved!

Thanks anyways if you tried to help!

@mariosunny Ikr..

Anyways, @mariosunny @leet4044 @MrBlackIsBack

if (Player#getItemInHand()==null) {

checks if the player has nothing it its hand, right? Because I try it and apparantly that doesn't work, because it thinks that I have a item in my hand?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

check if it isn't air after

if (Player#getItemInHand() == null || Player#getItemInHand().getType != Material.AIR) {
