can't get length of string array

Question

I am getting output in string format then I split it and want to do further processing, here is my code snippet,

if(str != null && !str.isEmpty()){

String[] splitLine = str.split("~");

String splitData[];
    int i=0;
    for( i=0;i<splitLine.length;i++){

        splitData = splitLine[i].split("#");

        if(Long.parseLong(splitData[0]) == oid)
            isParent = true;
            break;
    }
}

But, the problem is that I am unable to get length of splitLine String array and also eclipse shows a warning as a dead code for i++ inside for loop, I am cant able to understand why this happen does anybody have idea about it.

The break is the problem. It belongs to the preceeding if but that has no curly braces. Change it to this:

if(Long.parseLong(splitData[0]) == oid) {
    isParent = true;
    break;
}
