Tacho Navigator

[westes]

I get a error with eclipese when importing lejos.navagation.TachoNavigator.

The error is : The import lejos.navigation.TachoNavigator conflicts with a type defined in the same file.

My code is below:

Code: Select all

import lejos.navigation.TachoNavigator;
import lejos.nxt.Button;
import lejos.nxt.Motor;



public class TachoNavigator {


   public static void main(String[] args) {
      
            TachoNavigator tacho=new TachoNavigator(5.6F,12F,Motor.B,Motor.A);
             
               tacho.setSpeed(500);
      
               while(true)
               {
                   tacho.forward();
                   tacho.stop();
                   Button.ENTER.waitForPressAndRelease();
                   tacho.rotate(90);
                   Button.ENTER.waitForPressAndRelease();
               }


   }

}

Hi,
The clue is in the error message. You have already defined a class called TachoNavigator (your own public class), so this will now clash with the imported version from the leJOS class files. To fix it call your class something other than TachoNavigator....

Thanks! I only had a two week course on java and learned a lot but not everything.

I have warnings now.
The import gives me this warning:
The type TachoNavigator is deprecated

Hi,
Yes this class has been replaced and is no longer recommended for us in new code. You can use SimpleNavigaotr instead. Take a look at the leJOS API documentation...

Does simple navigator do the same as tacho navigator?

Yes, it does.
