StackOverflow的。我试图制作一个程序，使用文本菜单来处理大量的事情来操作单个字符串。其中一种方法将字符串转换为字符串数组。这很好用。但是，所有将它作为数组操作的方法（一个打印出来，一个反转单词顺序，一个使用交换排序方法对它们进行排序）在调用时返回NullPointerException。我查看了整个代码，但没有看到它的来源。这是包含所有代码的.Java文件。我的问题只发生在我调用底部附近的printArray（），reverse（）和sort（）方法时。任何和所有的帮助表示赞赏。对不起草率的代码，我还没有清理它。

答案 0 :(得分：3)
你错误就在这里：
private void makeArray() {
int n = 1;
String[] words = new String[n];//At This line you are creating local array words.The instance variable words is still null.
int pos = 0;
int i = 0;
int j = 0;
while(j > -1)
{
for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
{
n += 1;
j = str.indexOf(' ', pos);
if (j > -1)
{
words[i] = str.substring(pos, j);
pos = j + 1;
}
}
}
使用：
words = new String[n];代替String[] words = new String[n];
正如评论部分中 Luiggi Mendoza 所述，words方法中定义的局部变量makeArray为shadowing实例变量words在HUTPanel类中定义。
作为旁注 我想指出每次在{{1}中调用时，方法BufferedReader中不必要地创建新的grabText()个对象}}。如果您在类中使用getTheText()个实例变量，并使用inputReader在constructor内实例化一次，那么效率会非常高。这样，您的inputReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));方法就像这样：
grabText答案 1 :(得分：0)
确保始终始终使用选项7，以便初始化words数组。事实上，这不是用户应该做的事情。应用程序应该处理它，以便用户不能选择其他选项，或自动执行。
更新： Vishal K 是正确的，但这仍然是您应用中的弱点。
