thanks in advanceYou can define a String array in an if-statement; however, you have to have some code other than just a declaration. The only place that String array can be used is in the body of the if-statement (its scope).
// I did not try to compile this so there could be type-o's
if (ch!=0) {
    String[] str={"a","b","c"};
    System.out.println(str);
}
