An unexplained error message, without any of the code it relates to, is not a question.

Click the green "Improve question" link and update your question to include the relevant parts of your code, and an explanation of what you have tried and where you are stuck.

We cannot help you based on that little information: I'd guess that (37, 63) refers to a line and column number in the source file but other than that all we can say is that the message comes when you try to use this outside an instance method or constructor. Since this refers teh the cunnect instance of a class, you can't use it outside them.
