Simple array question

[Gianni]

// i define the array in this way
String [] cars;
if (idcriterio30.equals("") && periodoSelezionato <1440)
{
// and try to fill it this way
cars[] = criterio2.split(",");
}
else if (periodoSelezionato <= 1440 & criterio30.equals("T"))
{
cars[] = idcriterio30.split(",");
}
else if (periodoSelezionato > 1440 &&criterio31.equals(""))
{
cars[] = criterio2.split(",");
}
else if (periodoSelezionato > 1440 && criterio31.equals("T"))
{
cars[] = idcriterio31.split(",");
}

Why I have an error ??
thanks

You have a syntax error. When referring to a variable, be it
a primitive type, array or another object, you use the variable
name only:

cars = criterio2.split(",");

For further reference, when posting a question asking why you
get an error it is very helpful if you include the error message
to the question.

cars[] = criterio2.split(",");

You don't use the [] when using the variable, just "cars".
