trouble with method algorythm
Hi Guys,
Hoping someone can see where I messed up. I've created the test class below to which the output is:
id: 40
HID : 1
NAME : sports
id: 40
HID : 4
NAME : sewing
temp.size(): 2
HID/4
NAME/sewing
The final output should be:
HID/1
NAME/sports
HID/4
NAME/sewing
This has me puzzled. temp.size() should be 4 NOT 2. It is clear from the println statements that my nested for loop in method getArrayFieldValues(...) is finding id 40 twice and putting the necessary values into the LinkedHashMap. But by the time it is done, it would seem the first two entries into the hashmap get overwritten or something leaving only the last two entries. I think this is one of those "can't see the forest for the trees" things. I need an extra pair of eyes to show me where I went wrong. Please advise.

Code:
import java.util.*;
public class test
{
Field[] fields = null;
public static void main(String[] args)
{
test t = new test();
t.init();
}
private void init()
{
fields = new Field[2];
fields[0] = new Field("HID");
fields[1] = new Field("NAME");
String[][] data = new String[][]
{{"40","1","sports"},
{"41","1","sports"},
{"44","1","sports"},
{"39","2","crafts"},
{"38","3","photography"},
{"40","4","sewing"},
{"43","4","sewing"},
{"41","5","models"},
{"43","6","reading"}};
ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>> hobbies = getArrayFieldValues("40",data);
LinkedHashMap<String,Object> temp = null;
for(int i = 0; i < hobbies.size(); i++)
{
temp = hobbies.get(i);
for (Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : temp.entrySet())
{
System.out.println(entry.getKey() + "/" + entry.getValue());
}
}
}
private ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>> getArrayFieldValues(String id, String[][] data)
{
ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>> list = new ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>>();
int index = 0;
LinkedHashMap<String,Object> temp = new LinkedHashMap<String,Object>();
for(int i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
{
if(id.equals(data[i][0]))
{
System.out.println("id: " + id);
for(int j = 1; j < data[0].length; j++)
{
System.out.println(fields[index].getName() + " : " + data[i][j]);
temp.put(fields[index].getName(),data[i][j]);
index++;
}
index = 0;//reset
}
}
System.out.println("temp.size(): " + temp.size());
list.add(temp);
return list;
}
}
public class Field
{
private String name = "";
private String value = "";
public Field(String n)
{
name = n;
}
public Field(String n, String v)
{
name = n;
value = v;
}
public void setName(String value)
{
name = value;
}
public String getName()
{
return name;
}
public void setValue(String v)
{
value = v;
}
public String getValue()
{
return value;
}
}

Re: trouble with method algorythm
Problem solved. Had to rewrite method getArrayFieldValues(....):
Code:
private ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>> getArrayFieldValues(String id, String[][] data)
{
ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>> list = new ArrayList<LinkedHashMap<String,Object>>();
int index = 0;
LinkedHashMap<String,Object> temp = null;
for(int i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
{
if(id.equals(data[i][0]))
{
temp = new LinkedHashMap<String,Object>();
for(int j = 1; j < data[0].length; j++)
{
temp.put(fields[index].getName(),data[i][j]);
index++;
}
index = 0;//reset
list.add(temp);
}
}
return list;
}
