declaring an unitialized 2D array.

[Hung Tang]

what is the proper syntax in declaring an unitialized 2D array. for example.
The following is fine:
Object [][] array = { {"test1", "test2", "test3"} };
}
but when I type in the following code:
public class Test {
private Object [][] array;

public Test() {
array = { {"test1", "test2", "test3"} }; //error
}
}
I get an error... why and how do I fix it?

Sorry, I know what was the problem. The problem was that I didn't allocate memory for objects using new. So the fix:
array = new Object[][] { {"test1", "test2", "test3"}
};
