Thread: How to print out class parameters properly

I'm trying to get a cloneable interface to work. Here's what I have so far:

Driver.java

package interfaces.business;
 
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.time.*;
 
public class Driver implements Cloneable{
 
	private int DriverID;
	private String firstName;
	private String lastName;
 
	public Driver(int DriverID, String firstName, String lastName) {
		this.DriverID = DriverID;
		this.firstName = firstName;
		this.lastName = lastName;
	}
 
	public void setDriverID(int DriverID) {
		this.DriverID = DriverID;
	}
	public int getDriverID() {
		return DriverID;
	}
 
	public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
		this.firstName = firstName;
	}
	public String getFirstName() {
		return firstName;
	}
 
	public void setLastName(String lastName) {
		this.lastName = lastName;
	}
	public String getLastName() {
		return lastName;
	}
 
	//To make the clone() method available to all classes (instead of just having protected access),
	//you can override the clone() method of the Object class with a clone() method that has public
	//access:
	@Override
	public Object clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException{
		return super.clone();
	}	
}

CloneInterface.java

package interfaces.ui;
 
import interfaces.business.Driver;
 
public class CloneInterface implements Cloneable{
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		try {
			System.out.println("The main method from the CloneInterface class is being used.");
			System.out.println();
			Driver z = new Driver(5580,"Sam","Peterson");		
			z.setDriverID(5580);
			z.setFirstName("Sam");
			z.setLastName("Peterson");
 
			//clone the object
			Driver z2 = (Driver) z.clone();
 
			//change a value of the cloned object
			z2.setDriverID(8888);
 
			//print the results
			System.out.println(z);
			System.out.println(z2);
		}catch (CloneNotSupportedException ex) {
			System.out.println(ex);
		}
	}
}

I was expecting the output to look something like this:

5580, Sam, Peterson
8888, Sam, Peterson


But instead, I got something like this:

interfaces.business.Driver@15db9742
interfaces.business.Driver@6d06d69c


What happened, and how do I fix it?

Thanks for the answer norm.
I have been experiencing the same issue (i have just started with java) and i was driving crazy

Thaks a lot!
