PhoneBook entries with ArrayList problem

[gpelefty9]

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

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

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));
	}
	
	
	
	}

}

entries.add("Greg","478-454-7605");

You need to create an instance of the PhoneBook class and pass that to the add method, not two Strings.

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

Hi,
The modified code will as follow:
for adding the object in the list,

entries.add(new PhoneBook("Jim","478-124-7235"));
