My android code is giving a lot of these errors " Error: <identifier> expected " or" Error: ';' expected " even though everything seems to be fine. Please help me if anyone knows why this might be happening. Thank you in advance.

You should shouw the offending line of code as well.
Member 12901284 15-Dec-16 1:36am    
I'm sorry I did not do it before. Ive dont it now. Please have a look.
Richard MacCutchan 13-Dec-16 4:20am    
If everything was fine then it would not be giving you the errors.
Member 12901284 15-Dec-16 1:48am    
Thats obvious :p
I meant everything "looks" good..
Please have a look at the code.. Thank you.
Richard MacCutchan 15-Dec-16 4:12am    
I have had a look and cannot see anything obvious. so, the chances are there is something deeper causing the problems, maybe one of the imported files causes the problem. Unfortunately this is something you are going to have to diagnose for yourself because there is just too much to wade through to find where the cause starts.

Yes you have errors in your code, but without see that code, we can not help.

For real help, show the code and add comment in code to show us position of errors. include error messages in comments.

[Update]
Check if you didn't forgot a } in line before this one.
Java
public static String executeHttpPost(String url,ArrayList<NameValuePair>throws Exception){  //5 errors in this line.

Note: this error generate other errors. correct this and update question.

I wanted to do that in the first place but I dont know how to attach screenshots here..

Source code is TEXT.
insert comments in your code saying "error this in next line"
and paste your code, select the code and use code button to have it formatted.
Use Improve question to update your question.
Member 12901284 15-Dec-16 0:56am    
Done as you said.. Please see and reply.. Thank you
Patrice T 15-Dec-16 1:04am    
And what happened ?
Does it solve some errors ?
Member 12901284 15-Dec-16 1:24am    
I did that and It did solve a lot of errors but now I have these errors. Also please look into other java class files also. They have errors too. Thank you.
