What Is The Length Of A Null Array Object

Feb 21, 2014

I tried the following and it gives me null pointer exception. I just want to verify if what is the actual value of a length of an array?

Object [] obj = null;
System.out.println("length:" + obj.length);

How To Test For Array Length Equal To Zero

Mar 15, 2015

I am working on an assignment covering exception handling and am stuck on part of the assignment. How can you test for array length = 0?

When I try something like: if (array.length == 0) on a null array, naturally I get a NullPointerException. I would try something like if (array != null) but both array length of 0 and null array are supposed to throw different expressions.

Java Length Of One Dimension From A Multidimensional Array?

Apr 8, 2014

how you can do array.length, I have an array with [][][][], and what do I do to find the length of one section?

So let's say

Java Code: int array[][] = {
{5, 5, 5, 5},
{4, 4, 4, 4},
{3, 3, 3, 3}
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

How do I find out the length of the {5, 5, 5, 5} which is 4. Because there are 4 place-holders.Is there a way?

How To Create Object To Be Null If Class Constructor Parameter Is Int

Mar 8, 2015

I have a class of Date with a constructor with 3 parameters in it. Those 3 parameters are int data type just to enter month, year, day.

I have another class called Author which has a constructor of Date diedDate; as a parameter passing to the Author constructor.

I was asked to call the Date parameter is null, call the default constructor but I thought for the Date parameter I could only enter something like 0,0,0 instead of typing in null, null, null because null is for String data type isn't it?

Array Of Specific Length Filled With Random Numbers

Feb 15, 2015

I was inquiring about selecting random numbers from a Fibonacci array, the original post for which is here: Exiting a 'for' Loop Early. I have managed to achieve this with the following code:

System.out.println("Random numbers from the Fibonacci array");
for(int i = 0; i < limit; i++) //Limit is an 'int' of 15 & is set as the length of the Fib. array. I'm calling it for the Random array, too!!
{
Random dice = new Random();
int randomIndex = dice.nextInt(array.length); //The Fib. array was simply called 'array'!!
if (array[randomIndex] < 100)
{
System.out.print(array[randomIndex]+ " ");
}
}

When the code prints I get a random set of numbers which occur in the Fibonacci sequence preceding it. However, the actual length of this Random array also changes each time, and never more than the limit of 15 specified in the 'for' loop. What I want to try and do is print the Random array with a specific length each time. I've tried changing the conditional statement of the 'for' loop in different ways to set the Random array's length, but had no luck.

Black Jack Game - Initiated Object Returning Null

Nov 7, 2014

I've been assigned to create a Black Jack game with a gui. In this game I've created a seperate Player and Dealer class, and both initiated them, however when I try to call a Player object in a certain way I get a null pointer reference. (It should be noted that the Player object is an array)

public void runGame(){
while(running){
while(dealer.getPoints() <=19){
int count=0;

[Code] .....

And this is how I've initilized the Player class in the constructor

Player[] players = new Player[numberofplayers];
for(int i=0; i<numberofplayers; i++){
players[i] = new Player(i);
players[i].setDeck(d1);
gui.add(players[i].getPanel());
}

What I don't get is if I change players[i] to dealer, it works fine.

Java Convert String Of XML To Document Object Is Null All The Time

Apr 14, 2014

I am trying to parse a XML string into `org.w3c.dom.Document` object.

I have looked at solutions provided [here](xml - How to convert String to DOM Document object in java? - Stack Overflow), [here](How to create a XML object from String in Java? - Stack Overflow) and a few other blogs that give a variation of the same solution. But the `Document` object's #Document variable is always null and nothing gets parsed.

Here is the XML

XMLMappingValidator v = new XMLMappingValidator("<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
" +
"<mapping>
" +
"<container>
" +
"<source-container>c:stem.csv</source-container>

[Code] ....

When I call
**v.getXML().toString()**
I get
`[#document: null]`

Clearly, the parse is failing. But I don't understand why.

Web Services :: GregorianCalendar Object Passed As Null In Request - JAX-WS On Websphere

Jan 20, 2015

I created the WSDL first in RSA and then created the java bean skelaton from the WSDL. There are a couple of dateTime fields in the WSDL that are created as GregorianCalendar objects.

When I test with SOAPui and the date fields are passed correctly, everything works great. But when there is an invalid date format or anything else in the SOAP request, instead of returning a Conversion exception or some other validation exception, the field is passed as a null to the request object in the SOAP IMPL. Should't this return an exception?

Sample requests inputs:
<endTimeStamp>2014-01-28T01:30:14.474Z</endTimeStamp> - Date
<endTimeStamp>06-FEB-14 01.51.00.000000000 AM</endTimeStamp> - Null
<endTimeStamp>Any other string be it a date or not.</endTimeStamp> - Null

[Code].....

Encoder - Possibility Of Shift Being Larger Than Alphabet Array Length

Apr 20, 2015

I have an encoder that will shift the character of a string X places. Im trying to account for the possibility of the shift being larger than alphabet array length. I've come up with the following, but I still get an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds Error and it never gets past the if statement.

private String encryption(char charArrayElement) {
String [] alphabet = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "J", "K", "L",
"M", "N", "O", "P", "Q", "R", "S", "T", "U", "V", "W", "X", "Y", "Z"};
String str = String.valueOf(charArrayElement);

Created Tree Lemur Object - Returning Null Consistently From Methods

May 24, 2015

The question pretty much says it all, but I tasked myself with creating a program about lemurs. There are multiple class files in this program. In the below code snippet, I have my TreeLemur.class which extends to the Lemur.class which extends to the Mammal.class. However, when I create a Tree Lemur object in the main program, it is returning null consistently from certain methods. What am I doing wrong here?

TreeLemur.class :

public class TreeLemur extends Lemur {
private String groupSize;
private String diet;
private String fur;
public void setGroupSize() {
groupSize = "
Group Size: Large";
}

[Code]...

As of yet, I'm just trying to get Tree Lemur working properly to continue with creating the other if-branches within the main program.

Better Way To Remove Null Values From Array

Dec 1, 2014

Is there a better way to remove null values from an array than what I have tried? This works just fine, but I just get the feeling that there is a better way to do this, without using the JCF.

private static String[] removeNullValues(String[] list){
int count = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < list.length; i++){
if(list[i] == null)
count++;

[Code] ....

I technically dont need to remove the null values for the project that I'm working on (since I just print it out and I can avoid null values with a simple statement like

if(update[i] != null) SOP(update[i])
),

but I'm just curious.

Method Is Not Returning Array - Null Error

May 18, 2015

I am trying to return an array and I keep getting a null error. The below class sets the material numbers into an array and should return that array if called :

public class Jobs {
private int[] materialsNumber;
//change to parts and create another class that gets the materials for the parts
 public int[] job1() {
materialsNumber[0] = 11960120;

[Code] ....

I later try to call the method. The program executes but stops after I println "test in loop"

public class PurchaseOrdersToParts {
 private Jobs job = new Jobs();
 int[] getPartsForPurchaseOrder(BigDecimal purchaseOrder) {
 System.out.println("inside getparts");
 BigDecimal testNum = new BigDecimal(123.0);
 
[Code] ....

This is the method that is calling the method in the GenerateOrdersToParts class

private PurchaseOrdersToParts purchaseOrdersToParts = new PurchaseOrdersToParts();
 @Inject
PoRepository poRepository;
public GenerateShopJobTickets() {
 
[Code] .....

Increase Size Of Array But Getting Null Values

Dec 3, 2014

I'm working on a program to create a blackjack game using objects (one for card, deck. and hand). Withing my hand object I am trying to add cards to the hand but it is only adding the last card i try to add and giving null values for the the ones before.

class BlackJackHand {
private BlackJackCard [] hand;
public void addToHand(BlackJackCard c) {
if (hand == null) {
BlackJackCard [] tempHand = new BlackJackCard[1];
tempHand[0] = c;
hand = tempHand;

[Code] ....

What I want this section to do is add cards to the current hand. I was intending for it the hand to be null at first and the if(hand == null) piece to add the card the first time and then the else piece would be used when the hand already has at leas one card. I want the else section to create a temporary array that is one larger than my current hand, copy the cards from the old hand to the new hand, and then add a new card to the last space before rewriting the old hand as what the temporary hand is.

The code I am using to test if the addToHand() is working is

class BlackJackTest
{
public static void main (String[]args) {
BlackJackCard c1= new BlackJackCard(1,0);
BlackJackCard c2= new BlackJackCard(1,4);
BlackJackCard c3= new BlackJackCard(1,5);
BlackJackHand h1 = new BlackJackHand();

[Code] .....

BlackJackCard has the parameters (int suit, int value)

This should print:
ace of clubs
4 of clubs
5 of clubs

but instead prints:
null
null
5 of clubs

Replacing Null Values Within Multidimensional Array

Feb 18, 2014

I have a file which contains certain positions ([a][b]) that require to be placed in a certain multi-dimensional array. For example I might have an array String[][] that is a size of 6x6 but only have values in positions [2][1] and [3][2]. Because it is important for me to maintain the given array size and also do certain actions with the given positions I cannot modify the size. In addition I need to count the surrounding neighbors each element has (including elements that are null). However because some of my further code cant process with null elements I need to remove all null elements with " " (blank).

I am not sure how this is done or if it's even possible. If it is not possible how can I do something as close as possible to my needs?

Dijkstra's Algorithm - Array Full Of Null Data

May 6, 2014

I'm trying write a Dijkstra's implementation in java. First off, here is the algorithm:

package lab3;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Stack;
 
/**
* Compute shortest paths in a graph.
*
* Your constructor should compute the actual shortest paths and maintain all the information needed to reconstruct them. The returnPath() function should use this information to return the appropriate path of edge ID's from the start to the given end.
*
* Note that the start and end ID's should be mapped to vertices using the graph's get() function.
*/
class ShortestPaths {
Multigraph graph;
final int INF = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
PriorityQueue<Integer> Q;

[Code] ....

I followed someone else psuedocode very closely but for whatever reason, my edge[] array is just full of null data, which means I can't actually return the shortest path. Why that's happening/how to fix it? Maybe I'm not understanding dijstra's correctly.

Null Detected In String Array Not Saved By Class Constructor

Mar 12, 2014

I've a vertical-bar-delimited file where most elements contain text, some contain whitespace, and some are empty. Examples:

62RG|fe|Pencil Financial Group, LLC||doug@pencil.com|||85637889|Cross, Ben|bcross@godaddy.net|Bernard|Cross|Ben||315 One Tree Hill Terrace|Lafayette|LA

62RG|fe|Pencil Financial Group, LLC||tracy@pencil.com|||13658734|Dustin Cardwright|dcart@motorola.com|Dustin|Cartwright|||| |LA

which I parse and store with

String str_arry = innline.split( "|", 17);
lisst.add( new Contact( str_arry));

and my Contact class has the constructor

public Contact( String[] str_arry) {
for( int ii = 0 ; ii < str_arry.length ; ii++ ) {
if( str_arry[ii].matches("^s+$")) {
str_arry[ii] = null;
System.out.println("hit a null");

[Code]...

I expect the for-loop in the constructor to find any elements containing whitespace characters and set them to null for subsequent assignment.And when the code runs I do see some hit-statements pop up, so the detecting part is working.

But when I then process the list and access a Contact object and test fields for nulls I don't find any ie

if( aContactObj.getfFCity() == null) System.out.println("city is null");

never prints when it should.

What's the trick? Or is my approach wrong and if so what should it be?

Removing Item From String Array - Null Pointer Exception Error
