994 PointsError "Did you forget to add getExternalLinks"
So I'm fairly confident I made this method but I keep getting this error. Not sure why.
package com.example;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class BlogPost implements Comparable<BlogPost>, Serializable {
private String mAuthor;
private String mTitle;
private String mBody;
private String mCategory;
private Date mCreationDate;
public BlogPost(String author, String title, String body, String category, Date creationDate) {
mAuthor = author;
mTitle = title;
mBody = body;
mCategory = category;
mCreationDate = creationDate;
}
public int compareTo(BlogPost other) {
if (equals(other)) {
return 0;
}
return mCreationDate.compareTo(other.mCreationDate);
}
public String[] getWords() {
return mBody.split("\\s+");
}
public List<String> getExternalLinks(String prefix){
List<String> links = new ArrayList();
for(String word : getWords()){
if(word.startsWith(prefix)){
links.add(word);
}
}
return links;
}
public String getAuthor() {
return mAuthor;
}
public String getTitle() {
return mTitle;
}
public String getBody() {
return mBody;
}
public String getCategory() {
return mCategory;
}
public Date getCreationDate() {
return mCreationDate;
}
}

Treehouse TeacherHmm...try not passing in the prefix. The prefix is always "http"
so hardcode that. My test is specifically looking for a method named getExternalLinks
that takes no parameters.
Sorry for the confusing error message!
