HashMap login system with user data

Question

I creating Java project with customers that are Registering and than login in to the system.

I have my setters and getters which are in class Setting

String password, name, lastname;
//getters and setters here

Than in a class Interface I create the HashMap

HashMap<String, Setting> mapList = new HashMap<String, Setting>(); 
//String is the Key Login and the values is the class with getters and setters

When I call method to put values in to HashMap

mapList.put(Login, password, name, lastname);
//I'm getting error saying that this types of values can not be stored in HashMap

Can any one help me with this problem ?

Ok, so I got solution for this problem for any that has the similar scenario.

When I used method put to add data in to hashmap it didn't store password, name and lastname

mapList.put(login, new User(password, name, lastname));
//this is solution for my scenario

Answer 1

Create a class named Setting

public class Setting {
    public String password;
    public String name;
    public String lastname;
}

then create a hashmap as you are doing

HashMap<String, Setting> mapList = new HashMap<String, Setting>();

Not that your hashmap is accepting key as String and object of setting class as Value

So you can put the value into your hashmap as

Setting setting = new Setting();
setting.password = "Your Password";
setting.name= "Your Name";
setting.lastname= "Your Lastname";
    
mapList.put("login", setting);

Mark as up if it works for you.
