Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method

Or, more specifically, "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getImage() from the type AxisCamera."

The code is just

Code:

ColorImage image = AxisCamera.getImage();

But eclipse just gives that error.

I am sure I'm missing something simple, and/or something huge. Help would be appreciated.

Re: Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method

You need to get an instance of an AxisCamera before you can call that method.

Example:

Code:

// Typically you only want to do this ONCE; camera should be a class member

AxisCamera camera = AxisCamera.getInstance(); 



// Then you can get the image as often as you would like (but it's pretty slow, you don't want to call this more than once per 50 milliseconds or so!

ColorImage image = camera.getImage();
