How exactly do I extend the Joystick class - I tried it like this:

public class XBox extends Joystick {

When you say



do you want that in the class and would that just look like



THANKS for all your help!

That is the correct way to extend a class. The compiler is most likely complaining about the missing constructor. Anything that extends the Joystick class is required to have a constructor that calls the Joystick(int port) constructor. So your constructor will look like this inside of your class:

public XBox(int port) {
     super(port);
}

The super() method will call the super class's (Joystick) constructor.
