Question on createStatement()

[hcarousel]

I tried to use the following statement in Java to create a Statement object,

Statement stmt = con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);

but I got java.lang.NullPointerException error. Can anybody tell me what's wrong with my code?

By the way, I am using mysql on a unix system.

Thanks!

Since it's a Java exception, I'm going to move this to the Java forum....

chances are that con is null, however you must provide witht he full text of exception and the code snippet( abit more then one line that u have up there)
