I am also having a problem with my class, i dont understand what is going on as it all looks fine to me.
Code:
package javaapplication2;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class HighscoreManager {
// An arraylist of the type "score" we will use to work with the scores inside the class
private ArrayList<Score> scores;
// The name of the file where the highscores will be saved
private final String HIGHSCORE_FILE = "scores.dat";
//Initialising an in and outputStream for working with the file
ObjectOutputStream outputStream = null;
ObjectInputStream inputStream = null;
public HighscoreManager() {
//initialising the scores-arraylist
scores = new ArrayList<Score>();
}
public ArrayList<Score> getScores() {
loadScoreFile();
sort();
return scores;
}
private void sort() {
ScoreComparator comparator = new ScoreComparator();
Collections.sort(scores, comparator);
}
public void addScore(int score) {
loadScoreFile();
scores.add(new Score(score));
updateScoreFile();
}
public void loadScoreFile() {
try {
inputStream = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(HIGHSCORE_FILE));
scores = (ArrayList<Score>) inputStream.readObject();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("[Laad] FNF Error: " + e.getMessage());
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("[Laad] IO Error: " + e.getMessage());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("[Laad] CNF Error: " + e.getMessage());
} finally {
try {
if (outputStream != null) {
outputStream.flush();
outputStream.close();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("[Laad] IO Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
public void updateScoreFile() {
try {
outputStream = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(HIGHSCORE_FILE));
outputStream.writeObject(scores);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("[Update] FNF Error: " + e.getMessage() + ",the program will try and make a new file");
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("[Update] IO Error: " + e.getMessage());
} finally {
try {
if (outputStream != null) {
outputStream.flush();
outputStream.close();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("[Update] Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
public String getHighscoreString() {
String highscoreString = "";
int max = 10;
ArrayList<Score> scores;
scores = getScores();
int i = 0;
int x = scores.size();
if (x > max) {
x = max;
}
while (i < x) {
highscoreString += (i + 1) + "\t\t" + scores.get(i).getScore() + "\n";
i++;
}
return highscoreString;
}
}
