6,086 PointsCan't resolve the last challenge in this chapter.
What I did
// assetManager, assetName, and fileToWrite have been initialized elsewhere
try {
InputStream in = assetManager.open(assetName);
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(fileToWrite);
copyFile(in, out);
} catch(Exception e) {
printStackTrace(e.getMessage());
}
and what error I received.
JavaTester.java:68: error: cannot find symbol
printStackTrace(e.getMessage());
^
symbol: method printStackTrace(String)
location: class JavaTester
1 error
Can somebody show my mistake? Thanks.

40,533 PointsprintStackTrace is a method of Exception
inherited from Throwable
. You'll need to call it with the Exception
object:
e.printStackTrace();
