Update: If I move the code to be within the mouseclick event (ie instead of calling initMarksScreen() I just put the code directly in) it works as expected. So my problem is calling the code in its own method. Does this mean if I want to perform the same steps at another point or on a different button that I have to have the code directly in there instead of in a method I can call?
I am fairly new to Java and trying to create a button that adds a JScrollPane which contains a JTable.
It is called by:
public void mouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
initMarksScreen();
}
The code is:
public final void initMarksScreen() {
String[] columnNames = {"Student ID",
"Last Name",
"Firstname",
"Status",
"Degree",
"Candidate No.",
"Stage",
"Year",
"Code",
"Title",
"Grade Mode",
"Mark",
"Result"};
Object[][] data = {
{"100123456", "Cooper","Sheldon", "Signed Up", "BSc Physics","1201234","1","12","PH1001","Blackholes and Revelations","D",new Integer(99),"P"},
{"100123456", "Cooper","Sheldon", "Signed Up", "BSc Physics","1201234","1","12","PH1025","Astrophysics","D",new Integer(95),"P"}
};
JTable tMarks = new JTable(data, columnNames);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(tMarks);
tMarks.setFillsViewportHeight(true);
panelCentral.add(scrollPane); --!!ERROR AT THIS LINE!!
panelCentral.revalidate();
}
The panel is declared as:
private static final Container panelCentral = null;
As I'm quite new to Java I imagine there is an easy fix but if I need to add an SSCCE.
Everything displays fine until I click the button then the error I get is:

if panelCentral
is JPanel and its not initialized, initialize before add
panelCentral = new JPanel();
panelCentral.add(scrollPane);
