This code snippet is wrong and the problems above actually came from your example. If you provide snippets to programming beginners, make sure they are working and do not create more problems than helping.

You used a colon instead of a semicolon on your last statement. Since you did a override on toString(), you are calling your method on the statements inside of your method.

Don't override toString(). Change its name to something else and try to compile. That will let you know if that's the problem.

That is nonsense.

i.e:in first class
public void info(){

}
second class
public void info(){
super.info()
and i add something more}

i want to do this but netbeans tell me in the second class that the method already exist and i need to override it!!
if i do so i wont be able to use the first 1 ?

Spoiler:

Code:

Write an application to manage the stock of a store. Here is a specification of the program in terms of classes and interfaces: interfaces Salable per kilogram : the interface for selling items per kilogram methods: Sale : This method receives the quantity sold of the item and change the stock Salable piece : the interface for items that sell by pieces methods: Sale : This method receives the number of rooms sold the item and change the stock Likely to be sold in balance methods: start balance : This method lowers the price of the item by the given percentage complete the balance : This method increases the price of the item by the given percentage classes Class Articles: general class of all items Properties: number (automatically generated during the creation of an article) , purchase price , sale price and name. Methods ( other than the manufacturer): calculating the rate of return ( ( prixVente - prixAchat ) / prixAchat ) toString (): return the name and price of the item This class does not implement any interface. Two derived class Articles classes: Class artciles Appliance Aditional property : the number of items in stock Additional methods ( other than the manufacturer): Add a number of pieces in stock toString (): return the name , the price of the item and the number of parts You must implement the corresponding interfaces this class . Class articles futures Additional property : quantity in stock Additional methods: Add the stock quantity toString (): return the name , the price of the item and the quantity in stock You must implement the corresponding interfaces this class , knowing that the items futures can not be sold on sale.

now i have a new part

Spoiler:

Code:

class Store Properties: a vector (Vector) Methods (other than the manufacturer): Add product to the vector Save name, purchase price and selling price of all items in the futures vector "Primeurs.data" file properties Save all items appliances (as instances) of the vector in the "Electro.data" file Save the information generated by toString all items in the vector file "info.data" Print file information "info.java" Read "Primeurs.data" file and print the name and the performance of each primary article. Read "Electro.data" file and print the number and performance of each article appliances.

can some1 give me and exemple n how to do this ? i know how to save to a file and read from a file i have it in a course thats not my problem but what i did here is :

Code:

import java.util.Vector; public class Store { Vector vecteur = new Vector(); public Store(){ vecteur=null; } public void addArticle(Article article){ vecteur.addElement(article); }

i need to know how should i do this step: Save name, purchase price and selling price of all items in the futures vector "Primeurs.data" file properties

hope any1 can help and i'm sry i feel like i'm a pain to every1 here

(11-28-2013, 10:27 PM)blackeagle Wrote: @Deque sry for this i used google translate but i'll make a summery of what i need !!
in the class shop i need to create a vector a method to add an article to the vector article is an item for exemple tv ...
i have a class article already made and 2 classes articles electromenager and article primeur that extands from articles and inheritate some interfaces electromenager is for exemple a tv that we can make a sold on end the quantty is always an int!!
article primeur is sold in kilogram !! so it inheritates the interface salable by kilo!!
now i need to save name salePrice purchasePrice of every primeur article in the vecteur in a file called Primeur.data
i dont know how to get all the primeur articles from the vecteur and save them

(11-27-2013, 02:18 PM)blackeagle Wrote: i just have 1 question in my mind for now maybe @Deque could give me a good explanation to this !!
why do i need to make interfaces then inplement them couldnt i just make those methodes inside the class ?

(11-29-2013, 11:00 PM)blackeagle Wrote: what i dont now is how to check if the article is primeur or electromenager !!
