Toast Array value not working

I am trying to test to make sure my the value I want is in the array. Below the first toast works and just spits out my whole string of JSON data.

But the second toast which I am trying to show the value of [1] in my new JSONArray the jsonArray is giving me the following error jsonArray can not be defined to a variable Am I not referencing it correctly?

try{
    JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonData);
} catch (JSONException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
}
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonData, Toast.LENGTH开发者_Go百科_LONG).show();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonArray[1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

EDIT based on the feedback it could also be a scope issue since it is in the "try" Do I have to use a try? and if so how do I make it available to the rest of the script.

JSONArray is just a Java object, not an array, which means you cannot use array indexing on it. Perhaps you meant jsonData[1]? Additionally, since jsonArray is declared and initialized in the try block, it is not in scope for the Toast call. Assuming that jsonData is a Collection:

try
{
    JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonData);
    // ...
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonData.get(1), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
// ...

Change the last line to:

Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonArray.get(1).toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Or, if you know that element 1 is a String,

Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonArray.getString(1), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

EDIT

Based on your edit, I'm embarrassed that I didn't see it, but yes, you do have a scope issue. Move the Toasts inside the try block (in addition to what I suggested above).

The jsonArray variable is not declared within the same scope as your Toast.

Try something like this:

    try {
        JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonData);

        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonData, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, jsonArray[1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    } catch (JSONException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
