String options = "" + args[0]; Why do you use this ? You could just cast it to String, if(args[0] instanceof String) String options = (String) args[0]; . And Kevin+1. — Erkan Haspulat

It's unfortunate your exception doesn't show source file or line number, this leaves us to guess.

I don't see any use of a subscript 1 in the code shown, so the problem is likely in one of the called methods.

if (options.toLowerCase().contains("Failover"))

contains a bug, though: Once you lowercase options, the resulting String will not contain a capital "F" as in "Failover"!

Check that while making call to testMain(Object[] args) the param "args" should not be null. Better put a null check in the method itself

String options = ""; if (args!=null){ options = options+ args[0]; }

-1 for being completely offtopic as the exception is not thrown from the shown code, and another -1 for blindly suggesting StringBuilder because two String instances were concatenated once.

Carl Smotricz Over a year ago

Interestingly enough, "" + null yields the string "null". Perhaps not as intended, but it won't explode. @Bombe: Agree completely on 2nd criticism, it is downright WRONG to replace simple concatenation with SB. Zillions of Java programmers don't understand when SB is appropriate.

Yep, got it, but some details were missing from the question itself.
