Question

I have created several objects of a custom class and assigned them different attributes. I have then added each of those objects to a vector but when i try to output the elements of the vector, all i get are references to the objects and not the object attributes.

Answer 1

You can access them with the enhanced for loop:

Vector<YourObject> vector = ...;

for(YourObject obj : vector)
{
    System.out.println(obj.YOUR_METHOD_OR_ATTRIBUTE);
}

Or by using elementAt(position):

System.out.println(vector.elementAt(position).YOUR_METHOD_OR_ATTRIBUTE);

Or finally, override the toString() method and use:

System.out.println(vector.elementAt(position));
