    Exclamation Data Not Storing into HashMap Properly

    I've tried to create mock data to pass to Multiple Classes for testing, However, the creation of the Mock data doesn't work.

    Essentially, HashMap<String, LinkedList<Point>>
    The Point stores the data correctly,
    The LinkedList stores the Points correctly,
    But the HashMap no longer stores the 'x' values from the data

    Here is the code: (The Rectangle is just used for other purposes)

            Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(20, 20, 300, 300);
            HashMap<String, LinkedList<Point>> randomResultsSet = new HashMap<>(10);
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
                LinkedList<Point> dataPoints = new LinkedList<>();
                String key = "Criteria: " + i;
                for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++) {
                    Point px = new Point(j, j);
                    System.out.println("Point[" + px.x + "," + px.y + "] = " + px.toString());
                    dataPoints.add(px);
                }
                randomResultsSet.put(key, dataPoints);
            }
            HGraph graph1 = new HGraph(rect,  randomResultsSet);
            System.out.println("Map: " + randomResultsSet.toString());
            this.TESTINGAREA.add(graph1);

    Part of the output looks like this,
    Point[7,7] = java.awt.Point[x=7,y=7]
    Point[8,8] = java.awt.Point[x=8,y=8]
    Point[9,9] = java.awt.Point[x=9,y=9]
     
    DataPoints: [java.awt.Point[x=0,y=0], java.awt.Point[x=1,y=1], java.awt.Point[x=2,y=2], java.awt.Point[x=3,y=3], java.awt.Point[x=4,y=4], java.awt.Point[x=5,y=5], java.awt.Point[x=6,y=6], java.awt.Point[x=7,y=7], java.awt.Point[x=8,y=8], java.awt.Point[x=9,y=9]]
     
    Map: {Criteria: 0=[java.awt.Point[x=0,y=0], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=1], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=2], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=3], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=4], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=5], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=6], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=7], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=8], java.awt.Point[x=0,y=9]], Criteria: 2=[java.awt.Point[x=0,y=0]...

    But the HashMap no longer stores the 'x' values from the data
    Are you saying the contents of the Point objects stored in the HashMap has problems with the x values in the Point objects?

    Can you make a small, complete program that compiles, executes and shows the problem?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Correct, The Point data, Stored in the LinkedList, Which is stored in the HashMap, Doesn't seem to save the 'x' Values.

    Sure, If you drop this code into a main method, Imports etc, then it should compile and run, and show the problem. (i'm not in front of my programming computer)


            HashMap<String, LinkedList<Point>> randomResultsSet = new HashMap<>(10);
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
                LinkedList<Point> dataPoints = new LinkedList<>();
                String key = "Criteria: " + i;
                for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++) {
                    Point px = new Point(j, j);
                    System.out.println("Point[" + px.x + "," + px.y + "] = " + px.toString());
                    dataPoints.add(px);
                }
                randomResultsSet.put(key, dataPoints);
            }
            System.out.println("Map: " + randomResultsSet.toString());

    So i haven't fixed the problem, But when i recreated the 'random generating data' program it seemed to work, so my problem lies elsewhere! Thanks for your help!
