Hi,

I am creating an PriorityQueue with multiple queues. I am using an Array to store the multiple ArrayLists that make up my different PriorityQueues. Here is what I have for my constructor so far:

ArrayList<ProcessRecord> pq;
ArrayList[] arrayQ;

  MultiList(){       
   arrayQ = new ArrayList[9];
   pq = new ArrayList<ProcessRecord>();
 }

The problem comes when I am trying to get the size of the entire array, that is the sum of the sizes of each ArrayList in the array.

 public int getSize(){
    int size = 0;
    for(int i = 1; i <=9; i++){
   size = size + this.arrayQ[i].size();         
    }
    return size;
   }

is not seeming to work. Am I declaring the Array of ArrayList correctly? I keep getting an error saying that this.arrayQ[i].size() is not a method. (the .size() being the problem)

Thanks for any help!

David
