Re: WOW << newbie, q about methods of object

Your gonna have to give us a lot more detail.

Show us the code that is giving you grief and the error you are getting from it.

right, sorry, basically i want to know how i could make something like this work. It seems like it would work to me because toCharArray() is supposed to return a character array...

class Bwards
{

  public static void main(String args[])
  {
         char ch[] = args.toCharArray();
  }

}

sorry for the first foggy post.

[Jeff]

There's your problem.

args is an array, not a string.  Arrays dont have a toCharArray function.

args[n] are your Strings.

You need to say something like:

1	args[0].toCharArray()

If you want to make one char array out of all your arguments youll need to do something like this:

1   2   3   4   5   6

String combined = ""; for(int i=0;i<args.length;i++){  combined+=args[i]; } Char[] carray = combined.toCharArray();

ok sorry, basically i want something like this to work.

1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9

class Bwards {    public static void main(String args[])    {          char ch[] = args.toCharArray();    } }

Well I want a million dollars, but it ain't gonan happen.

And neither is that code going to work. Its wrong.

Edit: From chat what we figured out he wants is args[0].toCharArray()
