pass array as literal to method
Hi,
I have a constructor which accepts an array as an argument.
I want to create a new instance of the object and pass it some literal values for the array, but I cant seem to find the correct syntax for this. Can anyone help?
As an example:
private static int [] DOB = new int[2];
public Object(String name, int [] DOB)
{
etc..
}
Object person= new Object("Bart", {12,05});
So this would create a new object whose name is bart and date of birth 12th of May.
Unfortunately this wouldnt compile as I could not pass the array like this.
Cheers
John

If so it is now time to grade the answer.
If not, perhaps a clarifying question would help.
