[SOLVED] After defining 'public void handleSayTsup(ActinEvent actionEvent) in Controller.java I get groovy error

After defining the following code in Controller.java:

package sample;

import javafx.event.ActionEvent;

public class Controller {

    public void handleSayTsup(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
        System.out.println("Tsup!");
    }
}

I get this error when I try to run it:

Error: Cannot compile Groovy files: no Groovy library is defined for module 'Tsup'

PS: Why doesn't my markup work correctly?

I edited your code block for you. You were using apostrophes rather than backticks. You want to use three ``` like that.

I'm not sure changing IDE counts as a solution! There was something wrong with your setup as the project was looking for Groovy things which I don't think it needed. I'm glad you got on your way ... I'll mark this as solved.

Like Steve Hunter mentioned, it's not the IDE that's the problem. Looks like your method name should be handleSaySup() not handleSayTsup()
