accessing textfield elements in a array

[dominic]

hello

i have to write an applet whitch has 31 textfield elements. i tried to put
these elements in an array. when i compile the project, it works without
an error. when i start the applet, nothing works!! the internet explorer
doesn`t show me any errors. the applet is just empty!! until now i only access
the first element of the array --> tDatum[0].setBounds(5,25,60,20);

heres the code:


//class erfassenGui

import java.awt.*;

public class erfassenGui extends Panel
{
public Label lDatum;
public Label lProjekt;
public Label lArbeit;
public Label lVon1;
public Label lBis1;
public Label lVon2;
public Label lBis2;

public TextField[] tDatum;
public TextField[] tProjekt;
public TextField[] tArbeit;
public TextField[] tVon1;
public TextField[] tBis1;
public TextField[] tVon2;
public TextField[] tBis2;

public erfassenGui()
{
lDatum = new Label("Datum");
lProjekt = new Label("Projekt");
lArbeit = new Label("Tätigkeit");
lVon1 = new Label("von");
lBis1 = new Label("bis");
lVon2 = new Label("von");
lBis2 = new Label("bis");

tDatum = new TextField[31];
tProjekt = new TextField[31];
tArbeit = new TextField[31];
tVon1 = new TextField[31];
tBis1 = new TextField[31];
tVon2 = new TextField[31];
tBis2 = new TextField[31];
}
}

//class erfasen

import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;

public class erfassen extends Applet
{
private Font font;

public void init()
{
try
{
font = new Font("Arial",1,15);

setLayout(null);
setBackground(Color.white);
erfassenGui gui = new erfassenGui();

gui.lDatum.setFont(font);
gui.lProjekt.setFont(font);
gui.lArbeit.setFont(font);
gui.lVon1.setFont(font);
gui.lBis1.setFont(font);
gui.lVon2.setFont(font);
gui.lBis2.setFont(font);

gui.lDatum.setBounds(5,10,60,15);
gui.lProjekt.setBounds(70,10,100,15);
gui.lArbeit.setBounds(175,10,380,15);
gui.lVon1.setBounds(560,10,50,15);
gui.lBis1.setBounds(615,10,50,15);
gui.lVon2.setBounds(670,10,50,15);
gui.lBis2.setBounds(725,10,50,15);

gui.tDatum[0].setBounds(5,25,60,20);
gui.tProjekt[0].setBounds(70,25,100,20);
gui.tArbeit[0].setBounds(175,25,380,20);
gui.tVon1[0].setBounds(560,25,50,20);
gui.tBis1[0].setBounds(615,25,50,20);
gui.tVon2[0].setBounds(670,25,50,20);
gui.tBis2[0].setBounds(725,25,50,20);

add(gui.lDatum);
add(gui.lProjekt);
add(gui.lArbeit);
add(gui.lVon1);
add(gui.lBis1);
add(gui.lVon2);
add(gui.lBis2);

add(gui.tDatum[0]);
add(gui.tProjekt[0]);
add(gui.tArbeit[0]);
add(gui.tVon1[0]);
add(gui.tBis1[0]);
add(gui.tVon2[0]);
add(gui.tBis2[0]);
}
catch (Exception e) {}
}

public void paint(Graphics g)
{
}
}

I haven't seen any constructor for TextField in your following code. Is the
following code is the total code or something is missing. If it is the total
code there is no place you are creating TextField object. All the erfassenGui
class you defined the array of 31 elements but you haven't created the actual
object. If you would have caught the exception and print the exception then
you would have definetly noticed the NullPointerException. First create
the TextField object. Declaring tProjekt = new TextField[31]; doesn't actually
create objects. you need to loop through the array and create objects for
textfield

for(int i=0; i<tProjekt.length; i++)
tProjekt[i] = new TextField();

I hope this solves your problem.
