[Solved] Static block + cannot find symbol [duplicate]

Question

Your strBlock variable is a local variables within the static initializer block. Its scope is limited to that block, just like any other local variable. If you want to be able to access it in the main method, you’ll need to declare it as a field:

static strBlock; // Static field declaration

static {
    // Static field initialization
    strBlock = "Initialized in a static block";
}
