MultiD arrays

[kintaru]

hi every body,

i just can't figure out the problem here, i ve tried the very same code with a simple array instead of multi and it works:

/** Multidimentional + copy
*/
class ArrayComplicatedSomeHow {
public static void main (String[] args){
//declaring the multi dim arrays
char [][] copyFrom ={ {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e' },
{'1', '2', '3', '4', '5' }
};
char [][] copyTo = new char[5][5];

System.arraycopy(copyFrom[0],0, copyTo[0], 0, copyFrom.length);
System.out.println(new String(copyTo));

}
}

c:\classes\tutorial\Lesson>javac ArrayComplicatedSomeHow.java
ArrayComplicatedSomeHow.java:12: error: no suitable constructor found for String
(char[][])
System.out.println(new String(copyTo));

I ve actually found the problem but i wonder how to output my content using String when i have a multidimensional array?
i tired the same technic with a simple array: System.out.println(new String(myArray)); and it worked

how to output my content using String

Depends on the number of dimensions. Nested loops always work.

You've already been told about the code tags. Now how about putting that knowledge to use?
