Hello,

For a class I need to create an Airport Traffic Control Program.

The airport needs to have a number of runways that is determined at runtime.

In order to keep track of the runways I want to create an array of these runways. I have a runway class declared. How can I create an array of these runway objects in a different class?

It has been way too long since I've programmed in Java.

Could anyone help?

Thank you.

Runway runway[] = new Runway[5]; //just using 5 as an example

for(int i = 0; i<runway.length; i++)
{
   runway = new Runway();
}

Thanks.

Now I have another problem though...

Later in my Airport class I have a method getNumRunways where I'm trying to return the length of the runway array using return runway.length

The error I get when I try this is:
C:\Documents and Settings\Mindwalker1\My Documents\CS 161\Airport\Airport.java:71: cannot find symbol
symbol : variable runway
location: class Airport
return runway.length;
^
1 error

Thanks

I have to go eat. Could you please post the code, and I'll come back and take a look.

Never mind, I solved it.

I had forgotten to declare the array outside of the method.

Solved now.

Bummer... I missed something that half-way sounded interesting.
