Problem referencing array from another class

[Parka Teoh]

I have an array in a jdbc class file.
But I can't reference it in another class file in the same package.


Here's my jdbc connection class code

public class LimitedConnBean2{
 
static String[] pdtTitle = new String[10];
static double[] pdtCost = new double[10];
static String[] pdtCategory = new String[10];
 
public static void main(St......

and further down (in the same file )I have

int i = 0;
 
// Print results.
while(resultSet.next()) {
 
pdtTitle[i] = resultSet.getString("pdt_title");
pdtCost[i] = resultSet.getInt("pdt_cost");
pdtCategory[i] = resultSet.getString("pdt_category");
 
System.out.print(i + 1 + ". " + pdtTitle[i]
+ " cost " + pdtCost[i]
+ " and is a " + pdtCategory[i] + "\n");
 
 
 
i++;

in another file called file2.java, I tried to reference the array in the above file using the following...

...
public static void main(String args[]) {
 
System.out.println(LimitedConnBean2.pdtTitle[0]);
...

I've got null printed.

I don't know what I've missed...

Parka,
Is the System.out.println() writing at least once? Maybe the query isn't returning any data.

[Parka Teoh]

I've tried System.out.println in the connection file too. And the queries were printed out correctly. I have 9 items, and all the 9 items were displayed.

But somehow when I run the other java file to reference the array from the connection file, it returns null.

hmmm...

Parka,
Since we've established this isn't a JDBC problem, I'm moving it to Java In General. The people who hang out there know a lot about the language itself and can be more helpful.
