Java Local Development Environments Advanced Tooling Refactoring

Use the rename refactoring to name the Queue from mSongQueue to mSongRequestQueue in KaraokeMachine.java.

Not sure what "results" are being asked. I've tried putting the source code and it won't work. I've tried using the results in the console and that doesn't work either. Here's my source code:

package com.teamtreeHouse;

import com.teamtreeHouse.Song; import com.teamtreeHouse.SongBook;

import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStreamReader; import java.util.ArrayDeque; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.List; import java.util.Map; import java.util.Queue;

//Use the rename refactoring to name the Queue from mSongQueue to mSongRequestQueue in KaraokeMachine.java. //Once your refactoring is complete paste your results.

public class KaraokeMachine { private SongBook mSongBook; private BufferedReader mReader; private Queue<SongRequest> mSongRequestQueue;

private Map<String, String> mMenu;

public KaraokeMachine(SongBook songBook) {
    mSongBook = songBook;
    mReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
    mSongRequestQueue = new ArrayDeque<SongRequest>();
    mMenu = new HashMap<String, String>();
    mMenu.put("add", "Add a new song to the song book");
    mMenu.put("play", "Play next song in the queue");
    mMenu.put("choose", "Choose a song to sing!");
    mMenu.put("quit", "Give up.  Exit the program");
}

private String promptAction() throws IOException {
    System.out.printf("There are %d songs available and %d in the queue.  Your options are: %n",
            mSongBook.getSongCount(), mSongRequestQueue.size());
    for (Map.Entry<String, String> option : mMenu.entrySet()) {
        System.out.printf("%s - %s %n", option.getKey(), option.getValue());
    }
    System.out.print("What do you want to do:  ");
    String choice = mReader.readLine();
    return choice.trim().toLowerCase();
}

public void run() {
    String choice = "";
    do {
        try {
            choice = promptAction();
            switch (choice) {
            case "add":
                Song song = promptNewSong();
                mSongBook.addSong(song);
                System.out.printf("%s added!  %n%n", song);
                break;
            case "choose":
                String singerName = promptForSingerName();
                String artist = promptArtist();
                Song artistSong = promptSongForArtist(artist);
                SongRequest songRequest = new SongRequest(singerName, artistSong);
                if (mSongRequestQueue.contains(songRequest)) {
                    System.out.printf("%n%n Whoops %s already requested %s!", singerName, artistSong);
                    break;
                }
                mSongRequestQueue.add(songRequest);
                System.out.printf("You chose:  %s %n", artistSong);

Is this still a broken course?

Hey Gaspar,

Oh dear! That doesn't look good. It seems like there's an issue with the Code Challenges for this section right now.

If you go ahead and email help@teamtreehouse.com posting a link to this Community post regarding the issue then somebody should take a look into it for you. I'll let you do this as you can get yourself an Exterminator badge for finding the bug :)


Note to support: It appears all Code Challenges in the Advanced tooling section are broken due to an access issue.


Hopefully the issue will be fixed soon so that you can continue with your journey!

Thanks Harry, I appreciate someone finally responding to this as it's been about a week now since I've been having this problem and getting little to no feedback. I will try your suggestion.
