Description

I get this run tme error when I try to run this code,it compiles successfully.But when I say groovy Arr.groovy,it gives me this
on command line:

caught: java.lang.NullPointerException at Arr.main,

I want to read from an input stream into an char array using read(char[ ] array) method of reder class,but it gives me this runtime error.I'm sure the file does exists,read( ) method works fine but I can't read into an char array.

The code of my file is :

import java.io.*

class Arr
{
public static void main(args)

{ String dirName = "C:\\mydata" String fileName = "proverbs.txt" File input = new File(dirName, fileName) BufferedReader inFile = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(input)) char[] chr = new char[10] c = inFile.read(chr) }

}

Thank you
