Message:

arrays declaration at class lever(member arrays)

Posted by Y V NANCHARAIAH on June 14, 2000 at 9:00 AM

Dear Programmers
I faced a small problem in compiling a small java program during my scjp preparation. I have declared an single dimentional array at class level and tried to allocate memory in the next statement using new operator. but it is giving compile time error, identifier expected. i could do same thing in a method without any errors. i could also declare it at class level and
allocate memory in the constructor with out any problem
code fragement:
class ArrayDecl{
int ints[];
ints = new int(5); //error
public static void main(String args[]){
System.out.println("OK");
}
}
pl send me the reason why it is giving compile time error.
thanking you.

Sincerely
Nancharaiah
