[Solved] "Unable to create injector" regarding EconomyService

I’ve recently started working on a plugin that ties into Pixelmon, and I’ve been getting an error regarding using the @Inject annotation, apparently.

Sponge Build: 1.12.2-2768-7.1.5
Forge Build: 14.23.5.2768
Java Version: Server is hosted on VPS and only accessible through FTP so difficult to check

Plugin Source: Since I wrote the code, I’ve posted it on Pastebin

Well, for one

private Optional<EconomyService> serviceOpt = Sponge.getServiceManager().provide(EconomyService.class);
 
    private EconomyService economy = serviceOpt.get();

These should be set in the init event or something. The service won’t exist at the time that the class loads.

So would I just grab the variable during the GameInitializationEvent?

Actually, they’re typically registered in GameInitializationEvent, not by it. Unless you’re explicitly Order.LATE, you should be checking during GamePostInitializationEvent.

Grabbing the Economy service in GameIntializationEvent worked fine for me

It may have worked in the particular economy implementation you tested against, but again, I urge you to use GamePostInitializationEvent instead as that’s when every implementation is done by.

Also, I just read your code. Do not store the service like that because a service provider can change while the server is running. Instead, fetch the service each time, or alternatively keep it in a variable but update the variable on ChangeServiceProviderEvent.
