Getting error: No enclosing instance of type **** is accessible

Question

I am struggling with this code I have been writing. I did some research but I could not find a solution.

Here is my full error:

No enclosing instance of type Project2 is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type Project2 (e.g. x.new A() where x is an instance of Project2).

Here is my full code:

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Project2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        SuperheroWithPowers aquaman = new SuperheroWithPowers();

        Superhero2 catwoman = new Superhero2();

        //Aquaman calls marine life
        aquaman.setTelepathy(true);
        if (aquaman.getTelepathy()) {
            System.out.println("Aquaman calls all marine life around him to help defeat an evil villian!");
        }

        //Aquaman fights in the depths
        aquaman.setAdaptability(true);
        if (aquaman.getAdaptability()) {
            System.out.println("Aquaman is able to hand very high depths of water due to his ability to adapt to the ocean!");
        }

        //Aquaman tries to use his super strength
        aquaman.setStrength(true);
        if (aquaman.getStrength()) {
            System.out.println("Aquaman tries to use his super strength but the villian is stronger!");
        }

        //Aquaman uses the trident
        aquaman.setTrident(true);
        if (aquaman.getTrident()) {

        }

        }

        }

        public boolean getJudo() {
            return judo;
        }

        public boolean getThief() {
            return thief;
        }

    }//End Getters
}//End Superhero2

The point of this assignment is to use constructors which is where I believe I went wrong, but I just can't put my finger on it.

Answer 1

The problem is that is missing a right curly brace at Project2 class and rest a right curly brace at Superhero2 class.

Add a right curly brace at Project2 class:

    //Catwoman uses thief
    catwoman.setThief(true);
    if(catwoman.getThief()){
      System.out.println("Catwoman is easily able to sneak at night due to her master theif skills");
    }
  }
} //Add this right curly brace to close the Project2 class

Remove the last right curly brace from Superhero2 class:

}//End Superhero2 -> Remove this right curly brace

I recommend you always indent your code correctly, thus you can avoid this kind of issue.
