Question

I have been writing this line:

Map s_AvailableGameTables = Collection.synchronizedMap(new TreeMap());

And got the following error:
cannot find symbol
symbol: method synchronizedMap(java.util.TreeMap)
location: interface java.util.Collection

Although I wrote

import java.util.*;
import java.util.TreeMap;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Map;  

What is the reason for that?
Thanks

Answer 1

It’s a simple typo. It should be Collections, not Collection.

Try,

Map s_AvailableGameTables = Collections.synchronizedMap(new TreeMap());
