    Why do you think there is an error?
    Do you get some messages when you try to compile and execute the code?
    Please copy the full text of any messages and paste it here.

    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:

    [code]
    **YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
    [/code]

    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    The array created in the original code needs a bit where the array elements are created.

    Here's a version that doesn't throw a run-time exception.
    public class Main {
      public static void main(String[] args){
     
        // class
        class MyClass{
          int x;
          public int get(){
            return this.x;
          };
          public void set(int newX){
            this.x = newX;
          }
        }
        // create array
        MyClass[] mcArray = new MyClass[10]; // size allocated, but elements are null
        System.out.println(String.format("array is %s elements long", mcArray.length));
     
        // attempt to set array elements
        for(MyClass thisOne : mcArray){
          thisOne = new MyClass(); // create new array element where null element was
          thisOne.set(2);
        }
      } // main
    } // Main

    needs a bit where the array elements are created
    Note that code does not set the values of the elements of the array. To see what is in the array, add this print statement after the loop:
       System.out.println(java.util.Arrays.toString(mcArray));
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
