I was running the program using an array, and it worked properly. However when I switched to using a linked list, every item in the list seems to be the same. The nodes in the Item_db_l all seem to be the same. When I run the program all the items are apparently the same. I created a copy routine in the Item_Class, because I thought that primitives are copied and not set as references.

Java Code:

this.Attack = CopyFrom.Attack;
this.Defense = CopyFrom.Defense;
this.Item_Type = CopyFrom.Item_Type;
this.Item_UID = CopyFrom.Item_UID;
this.Value = CopyFrom.Value;
this.Name = CopyFrom.Name;
}
