Better coding

[tomiu]

Hi,

i wrotte a small code wich does exactly what i want(for now)...but i would like some critics and alternatives.. i know i can use set???+get??? methods too(but the code is too long with the methods)... what would be ur alternative...i just wanted to writte a program that shows the number of parked cars(car enters the park place,car leaves the park place)..thx in advance for the critics

public class Parking1
{
	private static String name;
	private static int capacity;
	private static int normal;

	static int parked=0;
	static int countIn=0;
	static int countOut=0;
	
	
	public Parking1()
	{
	 String name="";
	 int capacity=0;
	 int normal=0;

	}
	
	public void autoParks()
	{
		
		if(this.parked < this.capacity)
			{
			this.countIn++;
			System.out.println("Auto enters the Parking");
		    this.parked++;
			Parking1.print1();
			}
		else
		 System.out.println("Park place is full");
	}
	
	public void autoLeaves()
	{
		if(this.parked > 0)
			{
			this.countIn--;
			this.countOut++;
			System.out.println("Auto leaved the Parking");
			this.parked--;
			Parking1.print1();
			}
		else
			System.out.println("Park place is empty");
	}

  static void print()
	{
		System.out.println("Name: "+name+"\nCapacity: "+capacity+"\nHandicapped place: "+handicapped
							+"\nNormal: "+normal);
	}
	
	static void print1()
	{
		System.out.println("There are "+parked+" parked");
	}
	
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
	
		Parking1 park1 = new Parking1();
		park1.name="Auto Park 1";
		park1.capacity=4;
		
		park1.normal=4;
		
		park1.print();
		
		System.out.println();
		park1.autoParks();
		System.out.println();
		
		park1.autoParks();
		System.out.println();
		
		park1.autoParks();
		System.out.println();
		

		
		park1.autoLeaves();
		System.out.println();
		
		park1.autoParks();
		System.out.println();
		
		
	}
}

for starters, get it to work without having everything as static, apart from your main method. then make your instance variables private. then create the get/set methods you didn't make for whatever reason (making the code too long is no reason for anything). while you may feel inclined to directly modify values within the object, it's standard practice in java and oop in general to keep its actual variables hidden.
