Hello gamedev.net Forum buddies! I have a problem with inheritance. Here's the code for my two classes. and the parent Unit Hopefully my Source tags worked :) My problem is I have created a class that inherits its parent class that I have also created. How would I initialize the child class to use the constructor from the parent to access its member variables? I get an error saying that the Player class doesn't recognize the Unit("Warrior") line! I don't get it! Heh Thanks a lot guys!
public class Player extends Unit{
private String sName;
private String sClass;
public Player(){
}
public Player(String pClass){
if(pClass == "Warrior"){
Unit("Warrior");
}
}
public String getName(){
return sName;
}
public void setName(String name){
sName = name;
}
}
public class Unit{
