How do I use Java methods correctly?

So, I am SUPER new to Java, but I am trying to make a class-specific program so that I can work on a game within Java. Here is my code:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class boxtype {
public static void main(String args[]) {
    String[] melee = {"Crowbar", "Bowie Knife", "Butterfly Knife", "Knuckleduster"};
    String[] pistol = {"Colt .22", "Magnum .45", "P250", "9mm Pistol"};
    String[] assault = {"AK47", "M4A1", "M16", "SMG", "Mac10", "Minigun (HGE)"};
    String[] shotgunsniper = {"Shotgun", "Benelli S90", "Sniper Rifle"};
    String[] attachments = {"Laser Sight", "Silencer", "Scope", "Auto-target"};
    Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
    String xy = scan.nextLine();
    if (xy.equals("spyclass")) {
        spyClass();
    }

}
private static void spyClass(String[] assault, String[] attachments, String[] pistol) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    System.out.println("Spy class: ");
    System.out.println("Primary weapon: " + assault[2] + " + " + attachments[2]);
    System.out.println("Secondary weapon: " + pistol[1] + " + " + attachments[2]);
    System.out.println("");
}

}

Basically what happens, is Eclipse returns an error saying that "spyClass is not applicable". I'm still researching how to fix, but yeah.

spyClass probably shouldn't be static and you need to pass the arguments to it when you call it in your main method. spyClass(assault, attachments, pistol);

Your spyClass method expects a bunch of arguments, but you aren't giving it any. The line that says 

    spyClass();

should perhaps be something like 

    spyClass(assault, attachments, piston);

in the call to spyClass you're not passing the parameeters

It should be:

if (xy.equals("spyclass")) {
    spyClass(assault, attachments, pistol);
}
