I coded an enum type which brings up the following Syntax errors when I run my created JUnit test for it:
java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
Syntax error, insert "enum Identifier" to complete EnumHeaderName
Syntax error, insert "EnumBody" to complete EnumDeclaration
Syntax error, insert "}" to complete ClassBody
My enum type has static functions which for a particular String, returns an enum constant. Here is some of my code of the enum type:
public enum MusicType {
ACCIDENTAL, LETTER, OCTAVE, REST, DUR, CHORD, TUPLET;
public static MusicType is_accidental(String a){
if (a=="^" | a=="_"|a=="=")
return ACCIDENTAL;
else return null;
}
}
The rest of my static functions are very similar (i.e. is_letter
, is_octave
, etc.), although some use input.matches(regex)
function instead of checking to see if an input it equals a particular string.
Here is the beginning of the JUnit test which tests the function dealing with the accidental constant:
public class MusicTypeTest {
@Test
public void accidentalTest(){
String sharp = "^";
String flat = "_";
String natural = "=";
assertEquals(MusicType.ACCIDENTAL, MusicType.is_accidental(sharp));
assertEquals(MusicType.ACCIDENTAL, MusicType.is_accidental(flat));
assertEquals(MusicType.ACCIDENTAL, MusicType.is_accidental(natural));
}
}
The other functions in my JUnit test which test all the enum static functions are coded similarly. I cannot figure out why I have these syntax errors (this is my first time coding an enum type). I've been coding in Eclipse and have not found any missing "}"s as of yet. I don't know if this has anything to do with the way I've written the test or the way I've declared my variables. Does anyone know why I have these syntax errors?
I was getting this error while writing an Android app. All my brackets were closed; I was following an example from a different site. I ended up selecting the entire text for my code, cutting, saving, and pasting the code back. The error went away. It's very possible that Eclipse got stuck...
