You should just be able to add custom objects into your arrayList as you would say strings etc.

ArrayList example.

Hi,
if i have got your problem write....this can be the solution.

I have 2 classes A and B and I am adding its variable to arraylist in third class. Take care of access modifiers. Also objects can be added to arraylist like wrapper, string or custom objects along with primitive variables.
<----Array List class----->
import java.util.ArrayList;

publicclass arraylisttest {

public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
A a = new A();
B b = new B();
al.add(A.i);
al.add(B.d);
al.add(A.ii);

}

}

<----Class A---->
publicclass A{
public int ii;
public Integer i;
}

<-----Class B----->
publicclass B{

public Double d;
}

Thanks for the Help.

However i forgot to mention that the classes that contain the variables, are in constructors. And now i am getting errors saying 'cannot find symbol - constructor classA'. What can i do to overcome this error.

Thanks

can u plz send me your code....then i may be able to help you better...

HI, this is the code for my first class, which contains the variables and constructor. Then i have several other classes that contain the same kind of code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Details
{
Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

public String name;
public int age;

public Details(String Name, int Age)
{
name = Name;
age = Age;
}

public String getname()
{
return name;
}

public int getage()
{
return age;
}

Then i have the class that contains the arraylist:

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class arrayList
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
List<Details> list = new ArrayList<Details>();

Details a = new Details();
list.add(Details.name);
list.add(Details.age);

System.out.println(list);
}
}

try this.....actually the problem was....u were instantiating ur Details classes with passing any argument and in your Details clas u didnt had any such constructor defined.....now i hope this will work fine.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Details {
Details(){

}
Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

public String name;

public int age;

public Details(String Name, int Age) {
name = Name;
age = Age;
}

public String getname() {
return name;
}

public int getage() {
return age;
}
}


import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class arrayList
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
List list = new ArrayList();

Details a = new Details();
list.add(a.name);
list.add(a.age);

System.out.println(list);
}
}

Thanks for the Help, have got it working now.
