    <p>I want to make a search method from a list of Restaurants. The user has a GUI form and complete only the fields that he wants. I made a method meetsCriteria to check if this Restaurant exist. It works but not in all cases.</p> <pre><code>public class RestaurantList { private ArrayList&lt;Restaurant&gt; _restaurants = new ArrayList&lt;Restaurant&gt;(); RestaurantList selRest; RestaurantList searchRestaurant(String name, String area, String phone, String category) { selRest = new RestaurantList(); for (int i=0; i&lt; _restaurants.size(); i++) { if(_restaurants.get(i).meetsCriteria(name, area, phone, category)) { selRest.addRestaurant(_restaurants.get(i)); } } return this.selRest; } public class Controller { //this is list with all Restaurants static RestaurantList restList = new RestaurantList(); //this is list with the result of the search. public static RestaurantList selList; // selectedList public void addRestaurant (Restaurant rest) { restList.addRestaurant(rest); } public void searchCriteria(String name, String area, String phone, String category) { int size = restList.getRestaurants().size(); for(int i =0; i&lt;size; i++) selList = restList.searchRestaurant(name, area, phone, category); } } public class Restaurant { private String _name; private String _address; private String _phoneNum; private Area _area; public boolean meetsCriteria(String name, String area, String phone, String category) { if( this._name.equals(name) &amp;&amp; this._area.getArea().equals(area) &amp;&amp; this._phoneNum.equals(phone) &amp;&amp; this._category.equals(category) ) { return true; } if ( name.equals("") &amp;&amp; area.equals(this._area.getArea()) &amp;&amp; phone.equals("") &amp;&amp; category.equals("") ) { return true; } if ( name.equals("") &amp;&amp; area.equals(this._area.getArea()) &amp;&amp; phone.equals(this._phoneNum) &amp;&amp; category.equals("") ) { return true; } if (name.equals("") &amp;&amp; area.equals(this._area.getArea()) &amp;&amp; phone.equals("") &amp;&amp; category.equals(this._category) ) { return true; } if ( area.equals(this._area.getArea()) &amp;&amp; phone.equals("") &amp;&amp; category.equals("") ) { int index = this._name.indexOf(name); if (index != -1) { return true; }else return false; } if (area.equals(this._area) &amp;&amp; category.equals(this._category) ) { return true; } else { return false; } } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
