Why Method Is Not Returning A Value
Apr 29, 2014
I'm new to Java and I have a problem with a method, I can't see the code of the method, I just have a jar, but it should return a boolean, something like this:
boolean band = false;
band = TestClass.testMethod("blabla");
// band = false
The problem is that the method seems that is returning nothing (band remain false), and if I initialize band to true:
boolean band = false;
band = TestClass.testMethod("blabla");
// band = true
band remain true, in other words, the value of band is never modified, the question is, how is this possible? because it should return the same value on both calls, true or false, no matter the initial value of the variable that is receiving the returning value of the method.

I am working on a project which manages an airport's airplanes and flights based on user input. The method printFlights() - lines 133-134 - is returning null and I can't figure out why. The method is supposed to print information about each flight. The logic is identical to the printPlanes() method which is working successfully.

Now that I have figured out how to return a single variable from a method I am on to the next step, I need to return 2 or 3 variables from a method. I have searched the internet on how to do this to no avail (am I doing the wrong search? I do not know) but what I need to do is return a second (and eventually a third variable)
Here is what I have
private static String Engine() {
String engine = "";
int enginePrice = 0;
System.out.println("Choose a engine size:");
System.out.println("[4] cylinder");
[Code] .....
Which does not work.

I'm using apache POI to input data from a excel database. I have a method that is supposed to count the number of rows containing data so I can use that number to initialize an object array. It's returning one more than the actual number of rows and I can't figure out why.
public int getDataRange() throws IOException{
int rowCount = 0;
Iterator<Row> rows = sheet.rowIterator();
while(rows.hasNext()){
HSSFRow row = (HSSFRow) rows.next();
rowCount++;
[Code] .....
I get an array index out of bounds exception at the highlighted line.

I am trying to return an array and I keep getting a null error. The below class sets the material numbers into an array and should return that array if called :
public class Jobs {
private int[] materialsNumber;
//change to parts and create another class that gets the materials for the parts
public int[] job1() {
materialsNumber[0] = 11960120;
[Code] ....
I later try to call the method. The program executes but stops after I println "test in loop"
public class PurchaseOrdersToParts {
private Jobs job = new Jobs();
int[] getPartsForPurchaseOrder(BigDecimal purchaseOrder) {
System.out.println("inside getparts");
BigDecimal testNum = new BigDecimal(123.0);
[Code] ....
This is the method that is calling the method in the GenerateOrdersToParts class
private PurchaseOrdersToParts purchaseOrdersToParts = new PurchaseOrdersToParts();
@Inject
PoRepository poRepository;
public GenerateShopJobTickets() {
[Code] .....

So i have used the "remove()" method in conjunction with an iterator to remove an object from a HashSet in my program, and part of my exercise requires me to return said object. What I can do to return an object that has been removed using "remove()" method?

So I want to know how in Java you can pass a unkown type into a method (type can be an int, double, or a user defined object) and return that unkown type.
example of what I want:
Java Code:
public (unknowntype)[] method2 ((unknowntype)[])
//Process Data
//unknowntype.process();
return (unknowntype);
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I know in C you can use void pointers and in c++ we have templates but I do not know how java handles this. Also I want to know if it is possible to call a method in the unknowntype.

This simple program should build a new table with random values and on the getValue method (perhaps called from othe TestClass) return back content of particular cell. why my getValue method doesn't work. Nay! It returns error while compilation.
import java.util.Random;
class TablicaIntowa{
public int getValue(int a){
return tabl[a];
} //getValue method end
[Code]....

I have created a class and a matrix of doubles (or at least, I think I have, that's partly what I want to verify).I need to return the values of the array,Here is my class:
public class example{
double[][] Position=new double[2][11];
double calculate(){
for (int time=0;time<=10;time=time+1){
Position[1][time]=time;
Position[2][time]=time+1;
double A=Position[2][time];
return A;
}
}
}
I am getting the error: "This method must return a result of type double", though to me it looks like I am returning double (A).

I've made a class called Car with a method which will tell me a category for the engine size regarding the actual size (which I've included in the main just so I could see if it works) but everytime I test it I get an error.
public class Car {
public String b;
public String c;
public double es;
public double cs;
public String getCategory() {
if (es < 1.3)
[Code] ....
Figured it out. Was missing parenthesis on audiCar.getCategory();

I am writing a code where in the first method the question will ask whats your favorite website. for example www.javaprogrammingforums.com...when it outputs it will read just "javaprogrammingforums" without the www. and the .com.
Because the program will ask a series of questions in the main, I would like website question to be returned to the main. Here is my code, and what can I do?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class chapter3 {
public static String website(Scanner kb) {
String website;
System.out.println("What is your favorite website?");
website = kb.next();
[Code] ......

I'm having an issue returning data from a constructor. This is an assignment, and the specifications were that two classes are to be used, one for the variables and assigning methods, and one for the main method and the printing. This app compiles, but returns "0" for the isbn number, and I'm sure it's because I'm not doing something right with my constructors. My code is below
public class Book {
/* Declare Variables */
public static int isbn;
/* Constructor */
public Book (int isbn) {
isbn = 454545;
[code]....
There are other variables to add, but if I can get one working, I can get the rest working.

The code is below. The program runs a series of calculations based on data input by the user. My problem is that for the most important thing I'm looking for, total kg CO2 emissions, I continually get an answer of 0.0. What I need is a sum of the individual total emissions as calculated in each method, i.e. the values which are printed with the following: System.out.println(trans); System.out.println(elec); and System.out.println(food);
The total should be something like 25040 or whatever, depending on the value of the inputs provided by the user, but I'm constantly getting a total of 0.0., which is obviously false. Could have something to do with the way I've initialized my variables, or something to do with the limitations of returning values from methods.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class CarbonCalc {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double trans = 0;
double elec = 0;
double food = 0;
giveIntro();
determineTransportationEmission(null);
[code]....

I want to return multiple values in my EJB query. The query goes something like this:
SELECT SUM(s.sales) SUM(s.cancels) FROM accounts.
To implement this if I write as below:
Query query = _em.createNamedQuery("Accounts.findAccountData");
Now if I do query.getSingleResult(); how do i retrieve both the values since the ejb finder returns either a single object or a collection?.

For some reason my code returns the memory address of the array when its a print statement with a string, but it works fine when its in a separate print statement all by itself. Why? Do I need to create a toString method that converts a char array to a String to something? The reason why I ask that is becuase on Eclipse line 10 has a warning stating "Must explicitly convert char[] to a String".
public class Ex {
private String word;
public Ex(String word) {
this.word = word;
}
public char[] Display(){
char[] wordChars = this.word.toCharArray();
return wordChars;
[Code] .....
Result:
Hello world
The word is: [C@1db9742
I also tried this, knowing that it's a long shot, but that didnt do anything...
public String toString(){
Ex ex = new Ex(this.word);
char[] word = ex.Display();
String updated = word.toString();//counter intuitive?
return updated;
}

Write a method that accepts an array of Strings and a character c. The method must return the count of all cs in the strings of the array.
Here's what I have written:
[
public int countC(String[] strings, char c) {
int count = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < strings[i].length(); j++) {
if(strings[i].charAt(j) == c) {
count++;
}
}
}
return count;
}]
Does this look correct?

I'm following a tutorial and I can't work out why the version that I have written is returning null when reading the text file...?
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
public class AppReadFileFileReader {
public static void main(String[] args) {
File file = new File("test.txt");
BufferedReader br = null;
[Code] ...
I can't see any difference in the code though, and the files being found in order for the null to appear... :?
the text file is within the Java project, and just has three lines :
line one
line two
line three
That's all it say..... But all my program returns is the work 'null'

I'm writing a program that involves the use of set/get methods. I will submit a sample code of my issue. The format appears to be alright however the program is not returning any data. This is the same format as my actual code. Why this might be happening?
Java Code:
public static void main(String [] args) {
SecondClass object = new SecondClass();
object.setName("Name");
object.getName();
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
Java Code:
public class SecondClass {
private String name;
public SecondClass(){
name = " ";
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}

I run a bash command and save the output as a string object
String str1 = "" +getLastOutput();

If i have an if statement with str1.contains("xyz") && str1.contains("lkmn") &&str1.contains("zzzzzzzzzzzz")
How can i get the one that is not there returned to the screen? so i can use elsewhere?

Regarding return statements within methods. So I have a method containing try and catch block (as required) and much like when you have an if else statement... I noted you have to return an object for both the try and catch blocks. Now in my case my method should return a List object.
The way I have tried to overcome this:
- I've initialised a List object to null as an attribute of the class I'm working in.
- Therefore in the catch block would just simply return the null List object, where as the try block would return the non-empty List (which is what I want).
- I then just test to see if the List != null, when the method is invoked... and that is that.
However the method always seems to return null (when it shouldn't).

I have a very standard Lab assignment. It's probably been seen a lot. I wrote the first part not realizing I had to write a second class to do use the methods. I'm not sure how to change my program to call methods from my second class instead of doing all my calculations with user input in my first class.
Here's the first class' code:
package tickets;
//Imports classes used for "Ticket" application.
import java.util.*;
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Tickets {
[Code] ......
The code is obviously incomplete. I have not tried to compile, nor would I expect it to compile right. I'm not sure how to move my calculations from the first class shown above into my second class and use them as methods.
