I'm trying to get the hello world app running from the doc.
I get the following error:
render(java.lang.String) in views.html.index cannot be applied to (play.data.Form<controllers.Application.Hello>)
Pointing to the following code block:
/**
* Home page
*/
public static Result index() {
return ok(index.render(form(Hello.class)));
}
Also Eclipse cannot resolve the .render method on the index object.
the method render(String) in the type index is not applicable for the arguments (Form<Application.Hello>)
I defined the following imports:
package controllers;
import play.*;
import play.mvc.*;
import play.data.*;
import play.data.validation.Constraints.*;
import java.util.*;
import views.html.*;
Also the hello.scala.html and the index.scala.html are available in the folder app/views/
Any idea what I did wrong?
Each view in Play 2.0 is Scala function which contains arguments, most probably you have in the index.sacala.html String declared at the beginning:
@(message: String)
and it should be your form:
in controller:
final static Form<MyModel> myForm = form(MyModel.class);
public static Result blank() {
return ok(formNew.render(myForm));
}
and in the view:
@(myForm: Form[MyModel])
