i tried adding a constructor for it but the knowledge i have about java wasn't enough to fix it
here's a sample of the code. The error appeared on the last 2 lines of the code

            Reservation = new JFrame();
            Reservation.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
            Reservation.setTitle("R\u00E9servation");
            Reservation.getContentPane().setLayout(null);

            clientPan.setBorder(new TitledBorder(new LineBorder(new Color(0, 0, 0), 1, true), "Client", TitledBorder.LEADING, TitledBorder.TOP, null, null));
            clientPan.setBounds(10, 11, 424, 211);
            Reservation.getContentPane().add(clientPan);
            clientPan.setLayout(null);

            final JDateChooser D1 = new JDateChooser("dd/MM/yyyy", "####/##/####", '_');
            final JDateChooser D2 = new JDateChooser("dd/MM/yyyy", "####/##/####", '_');

Answer 1

Your problem is exactly what the error message is telling you. These lines:

final JDateChooser D1 = new JDateChooser("dd/MM/yyyy", "####/##/####", '_');
final JDateChooser D2 = new JDateChooser("dd/MM/yyyy", "####/##/####", '_');

are invalid syntax because the JDateChooser class does not have a constructor that takes two Strings and a character as parameters. The error message lists all of the constructors that the class does include. If you want to create a JDateChooser, you have to do it using one of the constructors that it provides.
