Java: how to initialize String[]?

Question

Error

% javac  StringTest.java 
StringTest.java:4: variable errorSoon might not have been initialized
        errorSoon[0] = \"Error, why?\"         


        

Answer 1

String[] errorSoon = new String[n];

With n being how many strings it needs to hold.

You can do that in the declaration, or do it without the String[] later on, so long as it's before you try use them.
