Comparing user id with user id from textfile












0















I want to add user information and reject if user id already exists. Currently, my code displays "ID already Exists!" but still adds the user information.



this is my code:



String id = EditManagerID.getText();
String password = EditManagerPassword.getText();
String name = EditManagerName.getText();
String contact = EditManagerContact.getText();
String address = EditManagerAddress.getText();
String role = EditManagerRole.getText();


try
{
String reader;

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("ManagerDetails.txt"));
while ((reader = br.readLine())!=null)
{
String split = reader.split(",");
if (id.equals(split[0]))
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "ID already exists!", "Warning", JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
}
}
}
catch(Exception e)
{

}


if(id.isEmpty() || password.isEmpty() || name.isEmpty() || contact.isEmpty() || address.isEmpty() || role.isEmpty())
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please Fill In Everything!", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}

else
{

ClassUser u = new ClassUser (id, password, name, address, contact, role);

File f = new File("ManagerDetails.txt");


try(PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(f, true))){
pw.println(u.toString()); //print into txtfile
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "Added Successfully!");

} catch(Exception e){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Invalid Input!", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}


I tried to add an 'if-else' but not sure what to put as a statement.

          In your code you 're saying if id already exists show message "ID already exists!" and then you continue adding users info anyway.
          In your if id already exists statement set a boolean variable found to true and then make one more if statement and check if found is true or false.



           boolean found = false;

          // ...

          if (id.equals(split[0]))
          {
          JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "ID already exists!", "Warning",
          JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
          found = true;
          //stop the while
          break;
          }

          // ...

          //check if id already exists or not. if not then add users info
          if(!found){
          //put your adding users info code here
          }
