Friends database, using files - Practice Exercises Java


Lesson 8:

File management


Exercise 8.14:

Friends database, using files


Objetive:

Expand the "friends database", so that it loads data from file at the beginning of each session (if the file exists) and saves the data to file when the session ends. Therefore, the data entered in a session must be available for the next session.


Source Code:


import java.util.*;
public class FriendsDatabase
{
	private final static class people
	{
		public String name;
		public String email;
		public String address;
		public short year;

		public people clone()
		{
			people varCopy = new people();

			varCopy.name = this.name;
			varCopy.email = this.email;
			varCopy.address = this.address;
			varCopy.year = this.year;

			return varCopy;
		}
	}

	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		int total = 275;
		people[] p = new people[total];
		int amount = 0;
