18,872 PointsIn the ForumPost constructor, you need to initialize the member variables:
public ForumPost(User author, String title, String description) {
// TODO: Set the private fields here
}
... just like you did for the User constructor:
public User(String firstName, String lastName) {
// TODO: Set the private fields here
mFirstName = firstName;
mLastName = lastName;
}
