I just got "Whoops! java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException" as feedback for a challenge.

What does it mean? There are no compiler errors.

ScrabblePlayer.java 
public class ScrabblePlayer {
  private String mHand;
private String mMatches;
  public ScrabblePlayer() {
    mHand = "";
  }

  public String getHand() {
   return mHand;
  }

  public void addTile(char tile) {
    // Adds the tile to the hand of the player
    mHand += tile;
  }

  public int getTileCount(char letter){
    int count = 0;
    for (char tile : mHand.toCharArray()){

      if (mMatches.indexOf(letter) >= 0){
        count++;
      }

    }return count;
    }

  public boolean hasTile(char tile) {
   return mHand.indexOf(tile) > -1;

  }
}

Hi Nick,

I'm not sure what the error is there but I can see that the solution you're trying to put together doesn't quite fit the bill.

Have a look through this post to see that helps you out.

Cheers,

Steve.
