Regards to your code you didn't initiate method
. Bear in mind that execute
with null
you must call public static method:
Your other issue , you didn't initiated interface properly. Here is working example:
InvokesMethodItf
public interface InvokesMethodItf {
public void invokeMethod() throws Exception;
public void setMethod(Method method);
}
InvokesMethod
public class InvokesMethod implements InvokesMethodItf{
private Method method;
@Override
public void invokeMethod() throws Exception {
method.invoke(null);
}
@Override
public void setMethod(Method method) {
this.method = method;
}
}
Terminal
public class Terminal {
public HashMap<Character, InvokesMethodItf> commands;
public Terminal() {
this.commands = new HashMap<Character, InvokesMethodItf>();
try {
this.setCommand('p',
this.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("printHelloWorld"));
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void printHelloWorld() {// method.invoke(null) looking for "static" method
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
private void setCommand(char letter, Method method) {
InvokesMethodItf inv = new InvokesMethod();
inv.setMethod(method);
this.commands.put(letter, inv);
}
public void executeCommand(char letter) throws Exception {
this.commands.get(letter).invokeMethod();
}
}
Main
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Terminal commandLine = new Terminal();
try {
commandLine.executeCommand('p');
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Output:
Hello World!
