error: Illegal modifier for parameter

Question

I was using these lines of code...

public static final int WIDTH = 240;
public static final int HEIGHT = 350;
public static final int SCALE = 2;

Answer 1

I expect that you are trying to use public and static on local variable declarations or method parameter declarations. Locals / parameters can only be final.

You can only use public and static on class members (or similar).
