    <p>I am trying to implement a simple HashTable in Java that uses a Linked List for collision resolution, which is pretty easy to do in C, but I don't know how to do it in Java, as you can't use pointers...</p> <p>First, I know that those structures are already implemented in Java, I'm not planning on using it, just training here...</p> <p>So I created an element, which is a string and a pointer to the next Element:</p> <pre><code>public class Element{ private String s; private Element next; public Element(String s){ this.s = s; this.next = null; } public void setNext(Element e){ this.next = e; } public String getString(){ return this.s; } public Element getNext(){ return this.next; } @Override public String toString() { return "[" + s + "] =&gt; "; } } </code></pre> <p>Of course, my HashTable has an array of Element to stock the data:</p> <pre><code>public class CustomHashTable { private Element[] data; </code></pre> <p>Here is my problem:</p> <p>For example I want to implement a method that adds an element AT THE END of the linked List (I know it would have been simpler and more efficient to insert the element at the beginning of the list, but again, this is only for training purposes). How do I do that without pointer?</p> <p>Here is my code (which could work if e was a pointer...):</p> <pre><code>public void add(String s){ int index = hash(s) % data.length; System.out.println("Adding at index: " + index); Element e = this.data[index]; while(e != null){ e = e.getNext(); } e = new Element(s); } </code></pre> <p>Thanks!</p>

    1. COHave you actually tried running your example code? Because for all intents, Java references are the same as C pointers.

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.
