Thread: PhoneBook entries with ArrayList problem

Hi I am supposed to create a class and create a constructor and accessors and mutators. then i must create a program that crates 5 instance objects of the PhoneBook class and stores them in an ArrayList. then use a for loop to display all 4 instances in the Array List.

The Problem i am having is actually hard coding the name and numbers in there and getting them to be displayed.

Here is my code for Phone Book class

HTML Code:

package Program_4; public class PhoneBook {	private String name;	private String number; public PhoneBook() { name = null; name = null; } public PhoneBook(String phonename, String phonenumber){	name=phonename;	number=phonenumber; } public void setname (String phonename){	name=phonename; } public String getname(){	return name; } public void setnumber (String phonenumber){	number=phonenumber; } public String getnumber(){	return number; } }

Here is my program

HTML Code:

 package Program_4; import java.util.ArrayList; import javax.swing.JOptionPane; public class PhoneBookDemo {	public static void main(String[] args) {	PhoneBook book=new PhoneBook();	ArrayList <PhoneBook> entries=new ArrayList<PhoneBook>();	entries.add("Greg","478-454-7605");	entries.add("Peter","478-448-7975");	entries.add("Bob","478-234-7650");	entries.add("John","478-423-7905");	entries.add("Jim","478-124-7235");	for (int x = 0; x < entries.size(); x++){	JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, entries.get(x));	}	} }

Thank you for your quick response. Where do i exactly create this instance in my code?

thanks
