method undefined error

**Herah** · October 29th, 2011, 05:19 PM

I am getting the error message "The method getCurrentTime() is undefined for the type lightQueue, and the same thing for getEndTime().
I know that eclipse can see my other class and these methods because my lightStatus() and introduction() calls are working fine. I have read a bit about how to resolve this, but none if it seems to apply. THe methods I am calling are simple getters with an int return value.

	public static void run(){
lightQueue lightQueue = new lightQueue();
		lightQueue.introduction();
		while(lightQueue.getCurrentTime()<= lightQueue.getEndTime()){
 
		}
		lightQueue.lightStatus();
 
		lightQueue.endSimulation();
 
	}

First, for future reference post an SSCCE - we do not know what lightQueue is, and where those methods are defined. Second, I would recommend reading the following describing code conventions for the language: Code Conventions for the Java Programming Language I point you to this given the following line of code:

lightQueue lightQueue = new lightQueue();

What is lightQueue? A class, or a variable? How does the compiler (or the programmer) distinguish between the two?
