How do I make a Java identifier that looks like " "order"+x" where x is a variable?

Question

I meant something like this:

for (x=0; x Order ("order"+x)=new Order (); /// this line is wrong...
}

...so, what's the right syntax for "variable" identifiers? I hope you understand my question.

I know this is possible in Java. I forgot how it is done. I dunno where to find the answer because I don't even know what this is called.

My bad! You misinterpreted it. Yah. It does look like I'm after arrays. No, that's not what I meant. How should I explain it? Errr...I want to make an identifier with part of it defined ("orders") and part of it depends on a variable(x). Like the identifier's name would be "orders" + x. I hope you guys get it. T_T. Uhmm..Adobe's Flash's Actionscript is capable of having this kind of identifier. I really believe that Java can do it.

Answer 1

For something like that, you'd use a HashMap, keyed by the name:

Map orderMap = new HashMap();
orderMap.put("order0", new Order());
...

Answer 2

It is not at all clear what you are asking, but I will guess that you are thinking about an array.

int orders = 1000;
Order[] order_list = new Order[orders];
for (int x = 0; x < orders; x++) {
order_list[x] = new Order();
}
