Hi Megan,
Glad to hear that your application is basically working.

Try replacing all statements like:
RealType type = new RealType(name);
with statements:
RealType type = RealType.getRealType(name);
in your application. There is an argument signature of
getRealType() to match every RealType() constructor
signature. If the RealType has already been constructed,
then getRealType() returns that rather than constructing
a new one.
Cheers,
Bill
