Console command returns error message

Hi.

I typed in this console command:

PezDispenser pd = new PezDispenser ("Yoda");

I got this message:

java.util.NoSuchElementException

Here's my PezDispenser.java:

public class PezDispenser {
  public static final int MAX_PEZ = 12;
  private String mCharacterName;
  private int mPezCount;
  public PezDispenser(String characterName) {
    mCharacterName = characterName;
    mPezCount = 0;
  }

  public boolean isEmpty () {
    return mPezCount == 0; 
  }

  public void load { 
    mPezCount = MAX_PEZ; // mPezCount set to maximum number of pez
  }

  public String getCharacterName() {
    return mCharacterName;
  }
}

I would appreciate any assistance.

Sean :-)

It seems like it should work. The first two commands below opens repl and loads the class file.

java-repl :load PezDispenser.java

After that, creating the new PezDispenser object should works as you typed it, even with the extra white space betweeb the constructor and it's argument.

Ok, so it wasn't working for me and I decided to do detective work. Run you code on the Javac. See if there any errors. Correct them and then run java-repl. Hope this fixed it

Look at your load method

Wheres the place to put the parentheses?

public void load(){ }
