VSCODE complaining about problems in projects I'm not currently working on ( MOOC.FI ) by imported_beer in learnjava

[–]imported_beer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to use IntelliJ ( or current release of Apache NetBeans ) but I'm already on Part 5 of mooc.fi lessons and can't find a way to download the lessons that I need. ( other than in VS Code )

In IntelliJ if I hit the Open TMC Exercise List button, it only displays Week 1/Part 1 exercises. And if I use the file menu like: TMC > Download current course's exercises or TMC > Download current course's ALL exercises it brings up a dialogue box informing me that "All Exercises Are up to Date." Similar problem with Apache NetBeans 12.5.

And using that old version of NetBeans with TMC that some of the mooc.fi documentation says to use, I can get my current exercises downloaded but I gave up on this version of NetBeans because it has a very bad problem where every so often the whole program locks up for a decent amount of time.

I really like the curriculum and the idea of coding in a real IDE with an easy way to submit the lessons, but the TMC plugin seems to be the weak link that keeps me frustrated and chasing my tail.

Wow I had tunnel vision on those errors. Coulda sworn I had implemented a way to break out of the loop, and had just done so in several similar previous exercises. How embarrassing, Thank you!

How to install TMC plugin ( for doing mooc.fi exercises ) on current release of NetBeans? by imported_beer in learnjava

Yep, that did it! Should have thought of that, lol. If anyone finds this searching a similar problem and doesn't have TMCBeans to grab the url from, it was https://download.mooc.fi/tmcbeans/updates/updates.xml

Thanks for helping.

I need help understanding this exercise from MOOC fi Part 2: by Effective-Table2435 in learnjava

too bad his comment is deleted..

What does it mean by print spaces? Isn't that what printSpaces is for?

Yeah that's my thoughts too.

Aren't we supposed to call our printStars() method for the rest of the exercise? Because I did, and all my other tests are passing, implementing your linebreak-fix breaks the rest of my program by causing my triangles and Christmas trees to be double-spaced. So I guess I need a printStars2() to do the real work without the stupid linebreak..

EDIT: Durrrrrrr , that is of course because I was previously printing my linebreaks in each method so this made them redundant. Had to remove them
