Question about main function / how do you do anything if it's static?
I am using the ACM libraries, but in order to export a jar I need to have the public static void main (string args[]) be my main entry function.
I have a "run()" function already defined which is what the ACM libraries use (of course I'm sure there is a main() somewhere since the ACM libraries are built upon real Java)
Here is a short snippet of run :
publicvoid run()
{
addMouseListeners();
lastStartI =newint[8];
lastEndI =newint[8];
// init IO console
// build the array of letters
buildList(letters);
// add in UI elements:
topOps =new GLabel("");
As you can see there are alot of calls to non-static functions.
How is it possible to have the entry point to a program be static? How do you ever call a non-static function? It doesn't make any sense.
I need to somehow use the main() function so I can export a jar
