Hi, new to java and having a problem with a file address (in Class Engine) which I would like to use in Class DataAccess.

The error that I get is

Unhandled exception type IOException

But can't thing of a way to fix it. The file and address are valid

If anyone has any ideas they would be appreciated. Below please find offending code

Thanks
Simon

package StatPairsModel;



public class Engine {
		  public static void main(String[] arguments) {
//**The next line has the offending error**
			  DataAccess rawStockData = new DataAccess("c:\\Beg Java Stuff\\SGC1.txt");
		Timeseries[] myTimeseries = new Timeseries[4];
		Stock stock1 = new Stock();
		Stock stock2 = new Stock();
		
		int numberOfPairs = 3;

		int[] myId = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };
		int[] myDate = { 37795, 37796, 37797, 37798 };
		double[] myClose_price_euro = { 1.23, 1.26, 1.25, 1.30 };
		double[] myClose_volume = { 2.321, 2.325, 2.365, 4.321 };
		double[] myClose_market_cap = { 3.21, 3.21, 3.21, 3.22 };
		int[] myCorp_action_ind = { 0, 1, 0, 0 };
		double[] myBeta = { 1.21, 1.32, 1.51, 1.21 };
		double[] myClose_price_local = { 2.23, 2.26, 2.25, 2.30 };

		
		
		
		// for (int i = 0; i<numberOfPairs; i++){

		stock1.setStock("0015425", "Vodafone", "VOD LN", "UK", "TELECOM",

		int i=0;
		for ( i = 0; i < myTimeseries.length; i++) {
			myTimeseries[i] = new Timeseries();
			myTimeseries[i].setTimeseries(myId, myDate, myClose_price_euro,
					myClose_volume, myClose_market_cap, myCorp_action_ind,

Well something you are doing is not allowed

// Unhandled exception type IOException
DataAccess rawStockData = new DataAccess("c:\\Beg Java Stuff\\SGC1.txt");

Your constructor

DataAccess(String address) 
{
    // .. code .. // 
}

Perhaps try changing what you are passing the constructor to something else... perhaps "test.txt" ?

A ctor should not throw an exception and normally shouldn't even have to catch one. Give DataAccess a load method and handle opening the file in there. The ctor should simply return the instance
