Array of objects and polymophism

this is my code
    String title01 = "Jesus is between Us!!!";
    String ref01 = "JURYT354";
    double price01= 9.97;
    String author01 = "Sir Peter Johanais";
    Book item01 = new Book (title01, ref01, price01, author01);
     MediaItem[] sample = new MediaItem[10];
    sample[0] = item01;it compiles well until i add the last line, for some reason it wont compile after that. I cant find any error in the syntax so I need help.
this is the error message i get
    ']' expected sample[0] = item01;
                                         ^
     <identifier> expected    sample[0] = item01;
                                                                                 ^

I think you need to cast the Book object into
Media..... type object before assigning the value in
last line of codeNot if Book extends MediaItem (which im assuming it does.)

Hi,
I have a MBP 13' Late 2011 and Yosemite 10.10.2 (14C1514).

Populating a dynamic array with objects and managing it in runtime.

So I'm another stuck firstyear. I'll try and make my question compact. I'm using Flash CS6 and have drawn an animated character on the stage that consists of separate parts that are animated and its head is a separate class/symbol entirely because it has not only animation, but a state switch timeline as well. This said Head extends the Main that is the character MovieClip.
I am using a dynamic array to store and .push and .splice objects of another class that would collide with this said Head.
I also discovered the super() function that is implicitly called as the constructor of the parent in any child class that extends the parent, in this case Head extends Main. The issue is that my collidable object array is populated within the main, within the function that spawns every next collidable object with a TimerEvent. This said function then gets called twice due to the super() call.
I have tried putting this super() call into an impossible statement in my child class, but it doesn't change a thing, and it was said that this method is unsafe so I don't even know if it should be working.
However what confuses me the most is when I trace() the .length of my collidable object array at the end of that function. As I said earlier, the original function both spawns an object after a period of Timer(1000) and adds it to the stage as well as adds the object onto the object array, but the super() constructor only duplicates the length call and a creates a copy of the object on the stage, but it does not add the second copy of the object onto the array. The trace() output goes on like so:
1
1
2
2
3
3
4
4
etc.
I wonder why and I'm really stumped by this.
Here is the code in question:
public class Main extends MovieClip {
                    public var nicesnowflake: fallingsnow;
                    var nicesnowflakespawntimer: Timer = new Timer(1000);
                    public var nicesnowflakearray: Array = new Array();
                    public function Main() {
                              nicesnowflakespawntimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, nicesnowflakespawn);
                              nicesnowflakespawntimer.start();
                    public function nicesnowflakespawn(event:TimerEvent) : void {
                              nicesnowflake = new fallingsnow;
                              nicesnowflake.x = Math.random()* stage.stageWidth;
                              nicesnowflake.y = - stage.stageHeight + 100;
                              nicesnowflakearray.push(nicesnowflake);
                              stage.addChild(nicesnowflake);
                              trace(nicesnowflakearray.length);
                              for (var i:Number = 0; i < nicesnowflakearray.length; i++){
                                        nicesnowflakearray[i].addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, snowhit);
                    public function snowhit(event:Event) : void {
                              if (nicesnowflakearray[0].y >= 460){
                                        if (nicesnowflakearray[0].y == stage.stageHeight) {
                                        nicesnowflakearray.splice(nicesnowflakearray.indexOf(nicesnowflake), 1);
                              //if (this.hitTestObject(nicesnowflake)){
                                        //trace("hit");
I am also fiddling with the collision, but I believe that it would sort itself out when I deal with the array pop and depop properly. However I'm pasting it anyway in case the issue is subtly hidden somewhere I'm not looking for it. And here is the child class:
public class Head extends Main {
                    public function Head(){
                              if (false){
                                        super();
                              this.stop();
So like what happens at the moment is that the array gets populated by the first object that spawns, but there is two objects on the stage, then when the objects reach stage.460y mark the array splices() the one object away and displays an error:
"#1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
          at Main/snowhit()"
then when the next object spawns, it repeats the process. Why does it trace the array.length as "1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, etc" until the despawn point and then goes on to display an error and then starts from 1 again, because if the array length is more than one object at the time when the first object of the array gets spliced away, shouldn't it go on as usual, since there are other objects in the array?
Thank you very much to whomever will read this through.

There are multiple problems:
1. You should add eventlisteners for your objects only once, but you add eventlisteners every time your timer runs to all of your snowflakes, again and again:
                              for (var i:Number = 0; i < nicesnowflakearray.length; i++){
                                        nicesnowflakearray[i].addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, snowhit);
change it to
nicesnowflake.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, snowhit);
I don`t see why its even necessary to employ this snowflakearray, it would be much straight forward if you simply let the snowflakes take care of themselves.
2. Then you have to change your enterframe function accordingly
public function snowhit(event:Event) : void {
                              if (e.currentTarget.y >= 460){
                                        if (e.currentTarget.y == stage.stageHeight) {
                                        e.currentTarget.removeEventlistener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, snowhit);
                                        removeChild(e.currentTarget);
3.
                              //if (this.hitTestObject(nicesnowflake)){
                                        //trace("hit");
since "this" is a reference to the Main class (root) it surely won`t function as you intend it to.
                              if (false){
                                        super();
makes no sense to use a condition that can never be true

Sorting an array of objects and returning another variable

Hi there,
Bit stuck on this one I wonder if anyone can help..
I have an object array into which I've pushed a number of objects with different variables :-
myArray.push({myRef: 1, myValue: "W"});
I can sort the array in numerical order using :-
myArray.sortOn("myRef", Array.NUMERIC);
but after sorting I would like to collapse the array using something along the lines of :-
myArray.join("");
to join the OTHER variable (myValue)...
Is it possible to do this without pushing every instance of 'myValue' to another array and then joining that ?
Many Thanks in advance
Martin

I have an Array of objects and want to add an ArrayList of a different ob

could someone please help me out with this one,
when the table is created i need create one new pile to each element of this array
create one new block for each pile
add a block to the pile
the block is an arraylist
the block and pile classes have already been set up
public class Table
private int NPILES; // the number of piles
private Pile[] piles; // the array of piles
/** Create a table and initialise the array piles.
* For every pile created create a block
public Table(int npiles)
// Initialise NPILES
NPILES = npiles;
// Create the array of size NPILES
piles = new Pile[NPILES];
for (int i = 0; i < NPILES; i++) {
/** Print the table. */
public void print()
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("P = Piles : B = Blocks");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("P : B");
// Print the sequence of piles
for (int i = 0; i < NPILES; i++) {
System.out.println(i +":");
// Print pile i (as shown in the project specification
// ... to be completed
so it prints
Piles : Blocks
0 : 0
1 : 1
2 : 2
3 : 3
4 : 4
any help would be great sorry about being sooo plain with words im new to java

where are the blocks to be added?
for (int i = 0; i < NPILES; i++) {Add the blocks here
for (int i = 0; i < NPILES; i++) {
System.out.println(i +":");
// Print pile i (as shown in the project

// ... to be completed
}should have another loop inside the for-loop to print all values in the block at position i in the pile

Displaying the contents of an array of objects

Hello All,
My Java teacher gave us a challenge and I'm stumped. The teacher wants us to display the contents of the array in the main menthod. The original code is as follows:
public class TestObjects
     public static void main ( String args[] )
          Thing[] thingArray = { new Thing(4), new Thing(7) };
}I understand that the elements of the array are objects, and each one has a value assigned to it. The following code was my first attempt at a solution:
public class TestObjects
     public static void main ( String args[] )
          Thing[] thingArray = { new Thing(4), new Thing(7) };
                                for ( int i = 0; i < thingArray.length; i++)
                                   System.out.println( thingArray );
}To which I'm given what amounts to garbage output. I learned from reading about that output that its basically displaying the memory location of the array, and the the contents of the array. There was mention of overriding or bypassing a method in System.out.println, but I don't believe that we're that far advanced yet. Any thoughts? I know I have to get at the data fields in the objects of the array, but i'm not having an easy time figuring it out. Thanks very much in advance!

Note that you're trying to print the entire array at every loop iteration. That's probably not what you meant to do.
You probably meant to do something more like
                             System.out.println( thingArray[i] );Also, note that the java.util.Arrays class has a toString method that might be useful.
To which I'm given what amounts to garbage output. It's not garbage. It's the default output to toString() for arrays, which is in fact the toString() defined for java.lang.Object (and inherited by arrays).
I learned from reading about that output that its basically displaying the memory location of the array, and the the contents of the array.It displays a default result that is vaguely related to the memory, but probably shouldn't be thought of us such. Think of it as identifying the type of object, and a value that differentiates it from other objects of the same type.
By the way I assume you mean "+not+ the contents of the array" above. If so, that is correct.
There was mention of overriding or bypassing a method in System.out.println, but I don't believe that we're that far advanced yet. Any thoughts? No, you don't override a method in println; actually methods don't contain other methods directly. You probably do need to override toString in Thing.
I know I have to get at the data fields in the objects of the array, but i'm not having an easy time figuring it out. You can get to the individual objects in the array just by dereferencing it, as I showed you above.
But I suspect that won't be sufficient. Most likely, Thing doesn't have a toString method defined. This means that you'll end up with very similar output, but it will say "Thing" instead of "[Thing" and the numbers to the right of the "@" will be different.
You'll need to override the toString() method in Thing to get the output you want.

Creating an array of objects of a class known ONLY at RUNTIME

I have a method in a class which expects an array of objects of particular type (say A) as its only argument. I 'invoke' this method using reflection. I have the instances of the class A stored in a Vector. When I do 'toArray' on this vector, what I get back is an array of Objects and not an array of objects of A. I assign this array to the zeroth element of another Object array and pass that array as a second argument to the 'invoke' method. Of course, it throws an Exception saying - argument types mismatch. Because I am sending an array of Objects to a method expecting an array of objects of A. My problem is I don't know A until runtime. So I have to handle whatever I am getting back after doing 'toArray' on a vector as a Generic Object. I know there's another version of 'toArray' in the Vector class. But it's API documentation didn't help a lot.
Can anybody please help me solve this problem? Any sort of hints/code snippet would be of great help.
Does the above description makes any sense? If not, please let me know. I would try to illustrate it with a code sample.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Sorry, for the small typo. It is -
clazz[] arr = (clazz [])java.lang.reflect.Array.newInstance(clazz, n);
instead
Thanks for the reply. I could do this. But I am
getting a handle to the method to be 'invoke'd by
looking at the types of the parameters its
expecting(getParameterTypes). So I can't change it to
accept an array of Generic Objects.
I looked at the java.lang.reflect.Array class to do
this. This is what I am trying to do-
String variableName is an input coming into my
program.
n is the size of the array I'm trying to create.
Class clazz = Class.forName(variableName);
clazz[] arr = (clazz
[])java.lang.reflect.newInstance(clazz, n);
According to Reflection API, it should work, right?
But compiler yells at me saying 'class clazz not
found'.
Any suggestions/hints/help?
Thanks, again.

Sorting an array of objects by an attribute

I'm pretty new to java so don't laugh if you think my question is real easy!
I have an array of objects and I want to sort them according to an integer value stored in each object. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for looking!!

Perhaps an example would help:
public class Person {
private String name;
private int age;
public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; }
public void setAge(int age) { this.age = age; }
public String getName() { return name; }
public int getAge() { return age; }
=====
public class PersonAgeSorter implements Comparable {
public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
    Person p1 = (Person) o1;
    Person p2 = (Person) o2;
    Integer i1 = new Integer(p1.getAge());
    Integer i2 = new Integer(p2.getAge());
    return i1.compareTo(i2);
=====
public class PersonNameSorter implements Comparable {
public int compare(Object o1, Object o2) {
    Person p1 = (Person) o1;
    Person p2 = (Person) o2;
    String s1 = p1.getName();
    String s2 = p2.getName();
    return s1.compareTo(s2);

import java.util.Arrays;
public class SortExample {
public static void main(String [] args) {
Person p1 = new Person();
Person p2 = new Person();
p1.setName("Tom");
p1.setAge(22);
p2.setName("Nancy");
p2.setAge(33);
Person [] people = new Person[2];

// here i have getter and setter metod for name & id
When I try to return the object c[]..i am getting "cannot conver from C to C[]".
Can u pls help me, how to return array of object and how to get name and id values in other class using this array object
Thanks for ur help

public class Starting{
public long empID;

               return empID;
This is my actual code..... I am able to set the values in Value class from Data class using getDetails() method, which is returning array of value object.
In Starting class, I am trying to get values using value[i].. i am getting last value of the array. This is my actual problem... here i want to get all values.
Please help me how to resolve this.

Reading a CSV file and producing an array of objects

Hi everybody,
I am writing an application which will read a cvs file and produce an array of objects.
Can any body help me to solve this problem?

How to list an array of objects using struts in jsp and ActionForm

I am using the struts ActionForm and need to know how to display an Array of objects. I am assuming it would look like this in the ActionForm:
private AddRmvParts addRmv[];
But I am not sure how the getter and setter in the ActionForm should look. Should it be a Collection or an Iterator?
I am thinking I need to use an iterator in the jsp page to display it.
I am also wondering if the AddRmvParts class I have can be the same class that gets populated by the retrieval of data from the database. This class has 10 fields that need to display on the jsp page in 1 row and then multiple rows of these 10 fields.
Thanks.

Most probably the easiest way to make it accessible in your page is as a collection.
ie
public Collection getAddRmvParts()
You can use the <logic:iterate> or a <c:forEach>(JSTL) tag to loop through the collection
As long as the individual items in the collection provide get/set methods you can access them with the dot syntax:
Example using JSTL:
<c:forEach var="addRmvPart" items="${addRmvParts}">
<c:out value="${addRmvPart.id} ${addRmvPart.name} ${addRmvPart.description}"/>
</c:forEach>

Thread use to find max and min in an array of objects??

Hello everyone,
I need to find the min and max int value in a array of Objects.
This has to be done using threads--like divide the entire array into 10 or so blocks and find the local min and max in each block., Each block is run on a thread and finally comparing them to find the global max and min.How should I do this? I am new to Java programming and in particular to threads.
Thanks for your time and patience in answering this newbie question.
JP

Hi,
if i understand your problem, you have a big array with a lot of int values and you need to create a few arrays with a part of the big one in each, next each in a thread find the max and the min, next return the max and the min of each thread and compare these max and min to obtain the globals max and min?
In that case you can create a class in which is your big array. you create a second class implementing Runnable, in its creator you put the instance of the
first class and 2 int which are the beginning and the ending index. in this class add a method run in this method you create a loop to compare the current value to the max and min values, and you replace if you need to do. In the first class you put the main where you create a few instance of the second class in a thread :
private Thread threadName = new Thread(new SecondClass(this, start, end));
Next you start all these thread:
threadName.start();
At the end of the run method of the second class you have to write your result in the max and min fields of the first class(int type, you have to create it)
Write it only if it's necessary (if the current max is > than the already existing max).
I think it's complete!
Sorry if it's not really easy to understand, I'm french, but you can answer if you have more questions.

Trouble creating and populating an array of objects.

I'm trying to create/populate an array of objects with consisting of a {string, double, integer}, and am having trouble getting this theory to work in Java. Any assistance provided would be greatly appreciated. Following are the two small progs:
public class HairSalon
{ private String svcDesc; private double price; private int minutes;
//Create a constructor to initialize data members
HairSalon( )
svcDesc = " "; price = 0.00; minutes = 0;
//Create a constructor to receive data
     HairSalon(String s, double p, int m)
     svcDesc = s; price = p; minutes = m;
//Create methods to get the data members
public String getSvcDesc( )
     return svcDesc;
public double getPrice( )
     return price;
public int getMinutes( )
     return minutes;
public class SortSalon
     public static void main(String[ ] args)
     SortSalon [] sal = new SortSalon[6];
//Construct 6 SortSalon objects
          for (int i = 0; i < sal.length; i++)
          sal[i] = new SortSalon();
//Add data to the 6 SortSalon objects
     sal[0] = new SortSalon("Cut"; 10.00, 10);
     sal[1] = new SortSalon("Shampoo", 5.00, 5);           sal[2] = new SortSalon("Sytle", 20.00, 20);
     sal[3] = new SortSalon("Manicure", 15.00, 15);
     sal[4] = new SortSalon("Works", 30.00, 30);
     sal[5] = new SortSalon("Blow Dry", 3.00, 3);
//Display data for the 6 SortSalon Objects
     for (int i = 0; i < 6 ; i++ )
     { System.out.println(sal[i].getSvcDesc( ) + " " + sal.getPrice( ) + " " + sal[i].getMinutes( ));
     System.out.println("End of Report");

Hey JavaMan5,
That did do the trick! Thanks for the assistance. I was able to compile and run the program after adding my sorting routine. Do you happen to see anything I can do to clean it up further, or does it look ok? Thanks again,
