Array of Classes

Hi All,
 Below is my code that compiles but give a java.nullpointer exception.

 What am I doing wrong? I have an array of classes. If I do not use an array, just a single copy, then the code works. What is wrong with my array or anything else?

-------------------------
public class MenuInfo {
         private int MenuInfoType = 0;
       private String TransactionCode = "";    

          public void init () {
              MenuInfoType = 0;
              TransactionCode = "ABCD";
          }    
       public int getMenuInfoType() {
          return MenuInfoType;
       }  

       public String getTransactionCode() {
          return TransactionCode;
       }  

       public void setMenuInfoType(int iMenuType) {
          MenuInfoType = iMenuType;
       }  

       public void setTransactionCode(String sTransactionCode) {
          TransactionCode = sTransactionCode;
       }    
    } // end class



public void otherfunction() {
MenuInfo[] test = new MenuInfo[2]; //array of classes

//using the line below instead of the line above
//will NOT compile
//MenuInfo[2] test = new MenuInfo();        


try {
    test[0].setTransactionCode("WXYZ");
    test[0].setMenuInfoType(4);
} catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.println(e.toString);
}        

//never gets here
System.out.println("Test.getTranCode: " + test[0].getTransactionCode());
System.out.println("Test.getInfoType: " + test[0].getMenuInfoType());

} // end otherfunction


TIA
