Problems with JComboBox

Not sure if this would thrown an exception like that but I noticed that you are declaring patterns as a String[] did you remember to declare that jComboBox was a JComboBox object?

like :

String[] patterns = { "S", "P", "1C", "Ps", "2C", "O", "W", "D", "K" };

JComboBox jComboBox = new JComboBox(patterns);

Hey,

I've had a similar problem today, and found a simple workaround...

String[] patterns = { "S", "P", "1C", "Ps", "2C", "O", "W", "D", "K" };

jComboBox = new JComboBox();

for(int i = 0; i < patterns.length; i++) {

jComboBox.addItem(patterns[i]);

}

Not perhaps the nicest way, but stopped the errors (although I was working in Eclipse). Hope that helps!
