java - SearchByEmail print -

i have employeestore class stores details employee's in company such name, id , e-mail. need method search hashmap e-mail addresses of employees , print out individual employee matching address.

i got code search map in answer can't manage print employee.

here code:

public class employeestore {      hashmap<string, employee> map;      public employeestore() {         map = new hashmap<string, employee>();     }      //....      public void add(employee employee) {         map.put(employee.getemployeename(), employee);     }      public employee searchbyname(string name) {         employee employee = map.get(name);             system.out.println(employee);         return employee;     }      public employee searchbyemail(string email) {         (employee employee : map.values()) {             if (email.equals(employee.getemployeeemail())) {                 return employee;             }             system.out.println(employee);         }         employee employee = map.get(email);         system.out.println(employee);          return employee;     } } 

to changed code this:

public employee searchbyemail(string email)      {         (employee employee : map.values())         {             if (email.equals(employee.getemployeeemail()))             {                 system.out.println(employee);                 return employee;             }         }           return null;     } 

main:

public class mainapp {      private static scanner keyboard = new scanner(system.in);      public static void main(string[] args) {         new mainapp().start();     }      public void start() {         employeestore store = new employeestore();         store.add(new employee("james o' carroll", 18, "hotmail.com"));          store.add(new employee("andy carroll", 1171, "yahoo.com"));          store.add(new employee("luis suarez", 7, "gmail.com"));         store.searchbyname("james o' carroll");         //store.print();     } } 

your searchbyxxx methods return employee should read value easy print it:

employee james = store.searchbyname("james o' carroll"); employee andy = store.searchbyemail("yahoo.com");  system.out.println(james); system.out.println(andy); 

and need clean searchbyxxx methods little , remove unnecessary print statements.
