My Class is not reconised as a Type
Sep 9th, 2008, 1:17am  
I want to create a two dimensional array and fill it with my 'Tile' objects. Code:


size (200, 200);
background (0);
Tile[][] mosaic;
mosaic= new Tile[width][height];
for (int i= 0; i<width; i+=2){
 for (int j=0; j<height; j+=2){
 mosaic [i][j] = new Tile(i, j);
 }
}

class Tile
{
color colour = color(255);
int x;
int y;
Tile(int x,int y){
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
stroke(colour);
point(x, y);
}
void setColour(int i){
colour = i;}
int getColour(){
return colour.get();
}
}


However i get the error:

Semantic error: Type "Tile" was not found.

Can you help me get this to work please?
regards
Tim

You can't use classes and Processing Basic mode.
try:

Code:
Tile[][] mosaic;

void setup()
{
  size (200, 200);
  background (0);
}

void draw()
{
  mosaic= new Tile[width][height];  
  for (int i= 0; i<width; i+=2){
    for (int j=0; j<height; j+=2){
    mosaic [i][j] = new Tile(i, j);
    }
  }
}

class Tile
{
  color colour = color(255);
  int x;
  int y;
  Tile(int x,int y){
    this.x = x;
    this.y = y;
    stroke(colour);
    point(x, y);
  }
  void setColour(int i){
  colour = i;}
  int getColour(){
  return colour.get();
  }
}
