Array with objects

[toby]

Hi, I have made myself a class like follows

Code:

class State  {
	static int[][] grid = new int[2][2];
	static int parent;
	static int depth;
}

And would like many instances of this class. I tried

Code:

State[] states = new State[1000];

But it does not set each instance correctly when I try states[0].grid = .... It treats it like one instance. What is the correct way to do this?
Thanks.

the reason is that u r using "static" access for grid.
wen a variable is defined static it means that it is defined not for one instance of the class instead it is unversal for all the instances the class has.

so if i say
static int i=0; then all the instances of class will have i=0;
and ny changes to i will affect the value of i in all instances.

so the solution is to use public or private access for these variables instead of static

so the class shld look like......
class State {
public int[][] grid = new int[2][2];
public int parent;
public int depth;
}


state[] obj=new state[1000]
obj[0].grid=.............
