How to fix “The code of method .. is exceeding the 65535 bytes limit”?

Question

I have the following code:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
        String[] studentnames = {
            /* this is an array of 9000 strin         


        

Answer 1

In java a methods can't have more than 65535 bytes.

So to fix this problem, break up your main(String[] args) method in to multiple sub methods.
