    Default add.(Recall.getResource());

    import java.util.ArrayList;
    import java.util.Random;
    import java.util.*;

    public class Process

    {
    //5 process states
    final static int NEW = 0;
    final static int READY = 1;
    final static int RUNNING = 2;
    final static int WAITING = 3;
    final static int EXITING = 4;

    //header info
    int stackSize;
    int programCounter;
    int processSize;
    int burstTime;
    int remainingTime;
    int numRequested;
    int IOTime;
    int waitTime = 0;
    int TurnAround;

    int pageTable [];

    ArrayList<Resource> requestedDevices = new ArrayList<Resource>();
    ArrayList<Resource> allocatedDevices = new ArrayList<Resource>();
    Random rand = new Random();
    final int maxSize=4096*(2^10), minSize=4096*1, maxDevices=5, minBurst=1, maxBurst=8; //change these to whatever is needed

    //constructor creates a process with random values
    public Process()

    {
    processSize = rand.nextInt(maxSize-minSize)+minSize; //random process size between min and max
    pageTable = new int [(processSize/4096) + 1];
    numRequested = rand.nextInt(maxDevices);
    //for (int i=0;i<numRequested;i++){ //set some random devices to be requested
    requestedDevices.add() .getResource("Resource.java");
    //}
    IOTime = requestedDevices.get(0).getTime();
    burstTime = rand.nextInt(maxBurst-minBurst)+minBurst + requestedDevices.get(0).getTime(); //random burst time between min and max
    remainingTime = burstTime;
    }
    //this method acts as the loader and creates a PCB for a process
    public PCB loader(int pid, int entryTime)
    {
    return (new PCB(pid, entryTime));
    }
    }

    the compiler returns an error saying:
    ./Process.java:41: cannot find symbol
    symbol : method add()
    location: class java.util.ArrayList<Resource>
    requestedDevices.add() .getResource("Resource.java");

    I believe I need to define the method add but don't how or if this will work???

    Default Re: add.(Recall.getResource());

    The add() method is contained within the ArrayList class, and expects to get a parameter of type Resource. For instance, let's say you created ArrayList of type String and you wanted to add a new element to it, it would look something like this:
    import java.util.ArrayList;
     
    public class Test {
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
            ArrayList<String> strings = new ArrayList<String>(0);
     
            strings.add("New string to add");  //This will add the new String element to the ArrayList
            System.out.prinltn(string.get(0));  // Print the first element in the ArrayList
        }
    }

    In other words you need to pass a Resource object as the parameter in the add(parameter goes here) method.
