I am running HelloWorld contract.

pragma solidity ^0.4.2;
contract HelloWorld {
    uint public balance;

    function Helloworld(){
        balance = 1000;
    }
}

After truffle compile and truffle migrate command I ran below command in truffle console:

HelloWorld.balance.call()

Error:

Just do 

HelloWorld.deployed().balance.call()

  • ah.. Thanks.. Command is working.. But, the output is: { [String: '0'] s: 1, e: 0, c: [ 0 ] } It supposed to be 1000 as the balance variable is set to 1000. Sorry, I am new to this. – Ronak Patel Jan 11 '17 at 17:39
  • Your constructor function's capitalization is wrong. Should be HelloWorld. – Tjaden Hess Jan 11 '17 at 17:46

Referred to in this thread: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/a/11944/16743. Truffle v.3.x requires you to invoke a function or variable using .then() as per the documentation here: http://truffleframework.com/tutorials/upgrading-from-truffle-2-to-3#contract-abstractions-deployed-is-now-thennable
