I getting an error from a code that I have been working on. The error is

Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException
    at java.util.Scanner.throwFor(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.Scanner.next(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Unknown Source)
    at sample2.AdditionalMethods.main(AdditionalMethods.java:57)

My code for the information is

package sample2;

public class shape {

    private String Name;
    private String type;
    private int length, width, radius;

    public shape ()
    {
        length = 0;
        width = 0;
        Name = "unknown";
        type = "";
    }

    public void setname(String n)
    {
        Name = n;
    }

    public void settype(String t)
    {
        type = t;
    }

    public void setlength(int l){

        length = l;
    }

    public void setwidth(int w){

        width = w;
    }

    public void setradius(int r){
        radius = r;
    }

    public String getname(){

        return Name;
    }

    public String gettype(){

        return type;
    }

    public int getlength(){

        return length;
    }
    public int getwidth()
    {

        return width;
    }
    public int getradius()
    {
        return radius;
    }

This is my first time posting so I hope I am doing this correct!!!

It compiled for me. What exactly is the problem?

To me, it looks as if the file you are trying to read from is set up differently than what you have coded to read it. the nextInt() method (if im not mistaken) checks the next position in the file, after what it has currently read. If the next group of characters separated by spaces is NOT a number, nextInt() with throw a mismatch exception like you got. I hope that made it a bit more clear.
I think you have the structure right, method calls just aren't lining up with your file... Look over your file structure, and see if it matches up with what your code is asking for =]. You might want to look at the hasNext() and hasNextInt() methods too, to make sure that you about to refrence to the correct object type

I keep getting theese errors...

Make sure the file exists and is located in the correct directory. Is it "shape.dat" or "shapes.dat" (the code says "shapes.dat")?

its shapes.dat I accidently erased the "s". I have a copt of the shapes.dat under the System library and also the src folder.

Are you using/running it from NetBeans? If so, try putting it in the project's directory (the directory ABOVE the src directory).

Im useing Eclipse. But it is there to. That is why I am so confused!!

Add this line in red:

File f = new File("shapes.dat");
System.out.println (f.getAbsolutePath());

I'm not familiar with Eclipse and where you're supposed to put the files, but this will tell you where it's looking. Make sure you have the file there.

Thank you!!!!! I got it now. Now the only problem is it only draws the rectangle haha
