Solved Problem overriding onCommand from CommandExecutor

I'm importing all of my Eclipse projects into Maven projects, and I came across this on one of my plugins. The class is implementing CommandExecutor, and the method I'm trying to override is the onCommand method, but according to Eclipse there isn't a method with that signature in CommandExecutor. Any ideas? Thanks.

 

What are your imports?

 

import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;

import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

 

the Override isn't needed.
Overrides are used when extending a class not implementing one.

 

If Eclipse doesn't let me use Override there, the method isn't going to be called when the command is executed. Overrides are generally good practice and should be used whenever possible.

The Override annotation may be used to override methods from both superclasses and superinterfaces. It does nothing but indicate that a method is being overridden, which makes the code easier to read/understand.

Maybe try rebooting Eclipse?

 

Yeah, I've tried rebooting Eclipse several times and nothing. I'll try using a different Bukkit version and see if that does anything.

Got rid of the Override annotation, and it works fine. Not sure what the deal is with that, but oh well.

That must have been a bug with Eclipse. It is completely fine to have that annotation there.
