Can I Access 2b2t On A Nintendo Switch?


Answer :

No, 2b2t is only compatible with an older version of the Java Edition client (currently at version 1.12.2 at the time of this answer). You can only join the 2b2t with the specific version of Minecraft that the server is running.


It's theoretically possible - a tool called Geyser lets you connect to Java Edition servers on Bedrock, even on console, according to this video:

It may be possible to connect to 1.12 servers (using VIAaaS), but I don't have a console to test it on, and you do need a Java Edition account (and a PC or Mac) if all of this is possible, so it's more something to do as an experiment, not something to do if you don't want to buy Java Edition.

If anyone does want to do this, here are some useful links:

I want to know if there is any way for me to get onto the 2b2t server on it?

Yes, there is a way.

screenshot of a Minecraft: Bedrock Edition player; their coordinates are 0, 240, 0 in The End; there are no blocks in sight; a single chat message shows "Position in queue: 705"

For this method, you'll need three third-party tools:

  • Geyser (to allow a Bedrock Edition client to connect to a Java Edition server)
  • ViaVersion Standalone (to allow a 1.16 client to connect to a 1.12 server (because, despite keeping the server on 1.12, 2B2T's admin has decided not to install ViaVersion.))
  • BedrockConnect (to allow a console port to connect to a custom server)

Setup

Geyser (Standalone)

Get a cheap VPS (or just an unused computer at your house); ensure it's got Java on it (preferably version 11 or newer), and run the Geyser Standalone file (Geyser.jar), which can be downloaded from their CI server.

Edit its config.yml and set

  • remote→address to 2b2t.org._v1_12_2.viaaas.localhost
  • server-name to 2b2t.org
  • motd1 to 2B2T Proxy (and remove motd2)
  • show-cooldown to false (it's currently disruptive on consoles)

then restart Geyser to reload the changes.

(Also, don't forget to open 19132/udp in whatever firewall the machine may have.)

Remember this server's IP — you'll need it later!

ViaVersion (Standalone)

On a computer or VPS (preferably the same one you're using for Geyser), also with Java 11, download ViaVersion Standalone from their CI server: go to the latest successful run, scroll down to download the Artifact, (unfortunately, this requires a GitHub account — fortunately, these are free;) and extract+run VIAaaS-0.2.#-SNAPSHOT+#######-all.jar from it.

(Also, don't forget to open 25543/tcp in whatever firewall the machine may have.)

In your web browser, go to https://viaversion-server:25543/ (except instead of viaversion-server, actually put the IP or hostname of the ViaVersion Standalone server). You will have to accept and connect to a self-signed certificate.

After ensuring that “CORS Proxy status” is “OK” (if it's not, go to “Settings” and paste https://crp123-cors.herokuapp.com/ — or, if you're paranoid, you could look into running your own — then go back to Home); click on Listen to premium login, and use a Java Edition Minecraft client to follow through with the authentication. Then, click Listen to _your_username_ and ensure it shows it's listening for your UUID.

(Leave this browser window open.)

BedrockConnect

Once your "Geyser Server" and ViaVersion Standalone proxy are running (remember to leave that browser open!), you will need to configure your device* with BedrockConnect to allow it to connect to 3rd-party servers.

(*The Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 require this; Android, iOS, Windows 10, and Fire/Fire TV editions do not; if you are on one of the latter platforms, skip this step.)

To do this, you should change its network configuration; set its DNS to manual: the primary DNS to 104.238.130.180, and the secondary to 1.1.1.1 (or your favorite DNS server).

If you have problems, you might want to try one of their other servers, such as 173.82.100.84; or even host your own.

Once Geyser is running, and your Switch (or PS4 or XBO) is configured to use BedrockConnect, you're all ready to go!

Connecting

Open Minecraft, go to Multiplayer, join any server that has Join to open server list as its MOTD.

Then, log in with your Java account credentials and enter the IP of the GeyserMC server you prepared earlier (NOT 2b2t.org!) as the Server Address.

Quickly look back at the browser on which you had pulled up ViaVersion, and authorize the connection ("impersonation") after confirming the IP's correct.

– et voilà~!

Converting A String To Int In Groovy

Answer : Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer , e.g. int value = "99".toInteger() An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is int value = "66" as Integer If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use String number = "66" if (number.isInteger()) { int value = number as Integer } Deprecation Update In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4 /** * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer * * @param self a CharSequence * @return an Integer * @since 1.8.2 */ public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) { return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim()); } /** * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version * @see #toInteger(CharSequence) */ @Deprecated public static Integer toInteger(String self) { return toInteg

"Cannot Create Cache Directory /home//.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org/, Or Directory Is Not Writable. Proceeding Without Cache"

Answer : if anyone pass through here, this is shorter solution: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/.composer it seems to me the group information is missing in your command sudo chown -R <user> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org Shoud be sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org But to avoid other permission issues, I would rather advise: sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache (you'll need access to other folders in there) and sudo chown <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer To make sure your user has permissions enough on the global composer folder. Mind the missing recursion so the user don't own keys created by root. If you need to find out the group: groups <user>

Android How Can I Convert A String To A Editable

Answer : As you probably found out, Editable is an interface so you cannot call new Editable() . However an Editable is nothing more than a String with Spannables, so use SpannableStringBuilder: Editable editable = new SpannableStringBuilder("Pass a string here"); If you only want to change the Spannables, never the text itself, you can use a basic SpannableString. Use Editable.Factory.getInstance().newEditable(str) From the android documentation: Returns a new SpannedStringBuilder from the specified CharSequence. You can override this to provide a different kind of Spanned.
