Java giving me anomalous results again

Greetings. Now this is a serious error, but it can probably be fixed by doing something simple. I read the contents of the saved file, with all the person and other information. I save the contents to a temporary object array, people_array, one object for each person. I tested out the algorithms for reading information from the file - it's saving it to the array effortlessly. When I call the method save list, all the others fields of the object come up null - and instead, all the data is saved the .name attribute - height, weight, eye-color, and attributes. Thus, that savelist as it is now, prints out all the database information. I could theoretically just work with that - but it would be better if I could find the source of this error.

Time to throw in some printlns and see what variables have what values. Follow the value through the program and see where it gets lost.

Already did that, it gets lost at the savefile() method. I reckon it has something to do with objects and arrays. Some sort of java unrefinement. It saves the line of the file to the .name property only, it prints 5 blank lines, then it saves the next line to the .name property. Maybe it is some sort of space-saving feature - as the object array is 6 times the size that it needs to be. Maybe some sort of memory management error.

Oh - figured it out:

while ((temp1 = reader1.readLine()) != null) {
people_array[count] = new person();
people_array[count].name = temp1;


I create a new object for each line - and set its name property to the line. Thus explaining the 6 empty lines. Okay I figured it out myself - but it was posting it here that somehow altered my thought process and allowed me to figure that out. So not a waste, heh. Not a java error either.

A simple error. Too many hours of continuous programming.

Take a break, life is too short.....

A 6 hour break aughta do it.
