You still *think* C++, apparently. How can "dereference a null pointer " in
Java ?

String s = null; int c = s.charAt(0);

Normally it's more subtle than that, of course.

S is not a pointer. It's a reference.


Sure, but a pointer is also a reference, that's why the verb "dereference" applies to it as well :).
