C++ to Java

[Alice and Cristina]

We're making a program in java, and we have the source code in c++, so we
just have to translate this code to Java, and we have a problem, one of the
files we have in c++ is a tree implementation, and we don't know how to make
a pointer in java.
If anyone of you has a tree implemented in Java, or knows the answer to our
problem, please send it to us!
It's very important!!!!
Thanks a lot,
Alice and Cristina

For trees, see the tutorial at
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor...nts/tree.html. You
don't need pointers in Java. Objects are implemented by references that act
the same way as pointers.

I don't understand what do you mean by there is no pointer in java. For tree
implementation you don't require any memory access. You can easily implements
the linkage and pointer to next node using simple arrays and Vectors. Remember
all objects references are nothing but pointers. There are lots of books
available for datastructures in java you can have a look at them.
