legalist bean to drop down list

[Chris Davies]

hi
i have an app which has a legalist bean that enables manipulation of predefined terms. i wont this to be out put and entered into a drop down list, here is the code -

  
import java.util.StringTokenizer;
import webtop.beans.legalist 

public class list
{
  public static void main( String[] args )
  {
    // declares legalist constructor and assigns list variable
    legallist ls = new legallist;
    list = ls.getParameterNames

     String input = "list";
    
    // remove those brackets
    input = input.substring(1, input.length()-1);
    
    // example use of StringTokenizer
    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(input, ",");
    while(st.hasMoreTokens())
    {
      System.out.println(st.nextToken());
    }
    
    }
}

why wont it compile ?
cheers

Well, if this is an exact cut and paste, I see several little errors right off the bat: the "import" needs a semicolon at the end, and the constructor invocation (first line of main) needs a set of empty parens before the semicolon. The line after that needs both some parens and a semicolon.
Since I haven't seen the "legalist" class, I can't tell if you're using it correctly, so there may be more errors.
