Problem: You will write a program to manage a list of people attending a confere

Question

Problem:

You will write a program to manage a list of people attending a conference. The conference is on a Saturday and there are two sessions that participants can sign up for. The morning session is from 9 am – 12 pm. The afternoon session is from 1 pm – 4 pm.

The Design:

The classes should be placed in a package with the name edu.ilstu.program6 An input files have been provided. Open and understand the data and the format.

You will need to use the following classes for your program:

Person class

Instance variables:

first name of the conference participant

last name of the conference participant

the name of the company the participant works at

registration code assigned to participant at registration

Methods:

Special constructor that takes a Scanner object. The Scanner object will be used to read data for one participant from the input file.

getters first name, last name and company name

toString method that will build a String literal value using the format below:

Name:

Company:

Session class

Instance variables:

the session time – AM (morning session from 9 – 12 pm) or PM (afternoon session from 1 pm – 4 pm

a Person object to represent the facilitator for the session

an array of Person objects that will represent the participants attending the conference

number of participants already registered for the conference

Constants:

a constant that will hold the maximum number of participants that can sign up for the session. This value would be 30.

Methods:

Special constructor that accepts values for the session time (AM or PM) and a Person object for the facilitator.

a method loadArray that will accept a Scanner object that will be used to read data into Person objects when Person objects are loaded into arrays. You will only load the data for Person objects signed up for the session, i.e. if session time for this object is AM, only load data for AM participants.

a method addToList that will accept a Person object. The Person object represents a participant who just signed up and need to be added to the list.

a method removeFromList that will accept a registration code. The registration code will be used to find the participant in the array and remove the participant from the list of attendees. This method will call the private method that returns the exact location of the participant in the array. The value returned by the private method will be used in the process of removing the participant from the array.

a method changeFacilitator that accepts a Person object which represents the new facilitator being assigned to the session.

a method that will display the contents of the array. It will only display the participants name and company name. Which method should be called?

a private method findParticipant that accepts the registration code of the participant who withdrew from the session. The registration code will be used to search for the participant in the array, and return the index value of where the participant was found in the array. If not found, this method will return a -1.

a method writeToFile that accepts a PrintWriter object. The PrintWriter object will be used to write the contents of the array the output file “UpdatedList.txt” in the same format as the inpur file.

ConferenceApp class:

Open the input file for reading. The input file has been provided, open it and look at the data in it.

Create two (2) Session objects, one for morning and one for afternoon session. Load the arrays of Person objects using the data from the input file into the correct Session object.

Display a menu that the user will select from. The menu should display as follows (:

Conference Registration System

– Add a participant

– Remove a participant

– Change the Facilitator

– Display the list of participants

– Close registration

– Quit

Option 1 – display the number of slots still available in the morning and afternoon session. Then ask the appropriate questions to complete the process of adding a participant to a session, including the registration code. After adding a participant to the list and the maximum number of slots is reached, display the message “Session is full.” Below is just an example.

AM session: 5

PM session: 10

Enter first name: Anne

Enter last name: Dangerfield Enter company name: Haley’s Comet

Enter session: AM

Option 2 – ask the user for the registration code and session time (AM or PM) which will be used to find the participant and remove the participant from the appropriate list.

For option 3 - ask user for the appropriate information needed to complete the process. The registration code for facilitators will be null. Below is just an example:

Enter first name: Anthony

Enter last name: Mallard

Enter Company name: Illinois State University

Option 4 will simply display the list of all participants by session. Display the list of participants in the morning session with the title “Morning Session List”. Then display the list of participants in the afternoon with the title “Afternoon Session List”. There should be a blank line between each participant information.

Morning Session List

…

Afternoon Session List

…

Option 5 will write the contents of the arrays in the Session objects to the same output file, same format as the input file. Display “Registration closed.” when done. Option 6 will terminate the application. You should not need to use “System.exit(#)” to do this. See how it is set up in Lab 14.

If option entered is not 1 – 5, display the message “Invalid option. Please make another selection.”   

Input and Output

Input file Participants.txt format:

< first name>

< last name>

< registration code>

Output file:  

UpdatedList.txt will hold the updated list of participants in each session. It will have the same format as the input file.

Generating Javadocs

Create javadocs for your Person and Session classes. To do this:

Go to the Project menu and choose Generate Javadoc...  

Under the “Select types…” window in the left, expand the folder for Program6, then the src folder. Then select the package name.  

After selecting the package name, the classes in this package will appear on the right window. Select Person and Session only.

In the Javadoc command dropdown, select the Configure… button. The location of the Javadoc.exe file needed to generate the javadocs in the virtual machines is in:

C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_65injavadoc.exe

NOTE: For the javadoc files to be correct, all of your javadoc comments must be correct and in the right places in the code. Open the generated html file, read it, correct any poorly formed Javadoc comments in your .java file and recreate the html file as many times as necessary before submitting.

Submission Requirements:

You will generate the javadocs for the Person and Session classes. Read the instructions in the

Zip the entire doc folder with your .java files for all of the classes together into a zip file.  

Name the zip file with your initials and Program 6.

o Example format: PM-Program6.zip
