Weird problem with static arrays

[m.surion]

I'm having errors with static arrays, errors which seem very weird to
me, here is the code which is causing the problem and the error
message. Is it my programming mistake, or is it some problem with
compiler or something?



static int[] wagi = new int[8]; //-line 10
wagi[4]=33; //-line 11


']' expected //-both
errors show error at line 11
<identifier> expected

static int[] wagi = new int[8]; //-line 10
static {

wagi[4]=33; //-line 11

}

Executable statements like `wagi[4]=33;' must
appear inside methods or constructors or initializer
blocks. You can't just drop them amid the field
declarations.

static int[] wagi = new int[8];
{
wagi[4] = 33;
}

static int[] wagi = new int[8]; //-line 10
wagi[4]=33;

You did not show the context, but you must declare statics OUTSIDE
methods but INSIDE classes.

static int[] wagi = new int[8];
{
wagi[4] = 33;
}

I assume what was meant was:

static int[] wagi = new int[8];
static {
wagi[4] = 33;
}

The top code has an instance initialise initialising a static instance,
which is probably a mistake (certainly sounds like one).

Or you could do:

static int[] wagi = new int[] { 0,0,0,0,33,0,0,0 };
