In the Java example you initialize the RobotDrive object at its declaration:

public class RobotTemplate extends SimpleRobot {

RobotDrive drivetrain = new RobotDrive(1,2);

I'm not sure that's a good way to do it. The constructor might need some resources that are initialized later in order to work properly. I would move it to the robotInit() method just to be safe.

public class RobotTemplate extends SimpleRobot {

RobotDrive drivetrain;

public void robotInit() {

drivetrain = new RobotDrive(1,2);

}

}
