Hashtable length limit java

Question

In my project, I'm working with webservices. To play with them, I use an Hastable in java. I m working with 1.6.x java version. I have an Hashtable declared as

Hashtable<String, String> props1 = new Hashtable<String, String>();

I could put data in like this

props1.put("@aze", values);

The 9 first element: no problem, all work well. At the 10 one, it a crash... and i don't understand.

How could I do ?

many thx

edit: full code source

public static void main(String[] args) {

    Hashtable<String, String> props1 = new Hashtable<String, String>();
    props1.put("@matricule", values[0]);
    props1.put("@nom", values[1]);
    props1.put("@prenom", values[2]);
    props1.put("@email", values[3]);
    props1.put("@estoccasionnel", values[4]);
    props1.put("@adresse", values[5]);
    props1.put("@codepostal", values[6]);
    props1.put("@ville", values[7]);
    props1.put("@telfixe", values[8]);
    props1.put("@telmobile", values[9]);
}

code break at props1.put("@telmobile", values[9]);

with error message

 java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 9
at CommandLineCreationWebservice.main(CommandLineCreationWebservice.java:99)

Answer 1

props1.put("@telmobile", values[9]);

the values array doesn't have a 10th value. That's the meaning of java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 9 (zero-based index in java)

Answer 2

Java Hashtable is capable of storing a large amount of object (depending on your heap size). In any case it is way more, that 10.

Answer 3

The problem is in your values array not in hashtable. Probably your size of values array is not enough. It should be at least 10 in this case.
