Question

I have an array list of Fleets (Each fleet will hold its own list of Trucks).

I have a fleet class with the constructor

public Fleet(String businessName){
    this.businessName = businessName;
    this.fleetList = new ArrayList<Truck>();
}

So:

In my TUI, I have a helper method called createFleet. When the user presses 1 on the menu, it asks for a name of his business, and then makes a fleet named that. That method is:

public static void createFleet(){
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("Please enter the name of the fleet.");
    inputText = scan.nextLine();

    fleetCollection.add(new Fleet(inputText));
    printFleets();
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("--- Fleet: " + inputText + " added ---");
    System.out.println("");
}

And my problem is that when I add one Fleet, and print the results I get:

Fleet 0: Fleet Number One

But when I add Fleet Number One, then press 1 on the menu again to add ANOTHER fleet (named Fleet Number Two) and print the fleet list, the results are:

Fleet 0: Fleet Number Two
Fleet 1: Fleet Number Two

It seems to be confusing the two…and this further breaks the program when I try to add trucks to the fleet, because It cannot pick the “right” fleet.

Please let me know if you need any other of my code.
I just need this to correctly add and print the fleets in the fleet list:

private static ArrayList<Fleet> fleetCollection;

Thank you 🙂 for all the help!

Answer 1

You probably declared businessName in Fleet class static, if so then remove it
