Objective:

Write a program that manages a Movie database. The user should be able to add, remove, and search the database. Along with being able to print and read from a database file.

Requirements:

Make a class GenLinkedList which has the following

An internal class of list nodes that hold a generic type and link

A head node for the start of the list

A current which iterates through the list

A previous node which is always one behind the current.

Functionality that

Adds a new item of a generic type

Removes an item from the list

Returns the value of where the current iterator is located

Move the current iterator forward

Move the current iterator backwards

Move the iterator to the head node

Prints the list

Make a class Movie with the follow

Attributes

Name

Year

Rating (1 to 5 stars)

Director

Box Office Gross

Methods

equals: Takes in another instance of a movie and compares all of the attributes. If they are all equal return true, and otherwise return false.

compareTo: which also takes in another instance of a movie and returns a 0 if its empty or anything else if its not.

toString: Returns a string with all of the attributes

Make a class MovieDatabase which will have a generic linked list of Movies and the following functionality

Add a movie

Remove a movie by title

Search movie by

Title

Director

Year

Rating

(Note that all of these should return an instance or instances of each that correspond. If it is instances you may want to return either an array or a generic linked list of the items.)

Print out all the movies to the console

Print to a database file (you may define your own protocol but tab delimited is recommended)

Read from a database file

Write another class MovieDatabaseFrontEnd which is front end that will allow a user to use any of the features noted in the database description. For instance it may look like:

Enter 1: To Add a Movie

Enter 2: To Remove a Movie by its Title

Enter 3: To search for a Title

Enter 4: To search for moves by a Director

Enter 5: To search for movies of a given Year

Enter 6: To search for movies of a certain Rating

Enter 7: To print out all movies

Enter 8: To print to a database file

Enter 9: To load a database file

Enter 0: To quit

Other notes

You MAY NOT use any built-in java linked structures, such as LinkedList, ArrayList, etc. The point of this is to implement these structures and use them.

Make sure to follow the objectives listed!
