getActionCommand not working with arrayLists input from file?
Hey people.
I have this java file which makes a window, a bunch of arraylists, and some GUI things. It then fills the arrayLists with the data from a file I've linked to it, and then it looks for the action listeners (button being pressed). My arrayLists are: car type (car, suv, wagon), car brand (hyundai, VW etc.), car model(falcon, golf etc.), car price (duh), and car year(also duh). The idea is that each row in each array list refers to the same car - so value 1 of arrayList 1 contains information on the same car as value 1 of arrayList 2, and 3 etc.. OK so onto my problem. When I clear the search box, select a price, and select a car type (search box is now empty, should let through all cars), I get an error on line 220 - which is the getActionCommand line, comparing the selection in the GUI to the info in the arrayList. I might be being stupid here, this is the first time I've ever used radio buttons and the getActionCommand method so please tell me if I'm making a stupid mistake
Oh a word about the CSV file, it has 5 columns, and each row is a new car - that's how the while loop works.
Thanks guys, here's my code:
