How To Write Key Listener

Jan 7, 2014

I want to make a program that will move a square to the left if you press "a", and to the right if you press "d". (Once I know how to do this I can figure out W and S for up and down by myself). What code would I use for doing that? Here is the program I have now. I used the oracle tutorial but it just shows how to handle for if ANY key is pressed.

This is what I used How to Write a Key Listener (The Java Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Writing Event Listeners)

Java Code:

import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;

public class myGame extends JComponent {
public int x = 20;
public int y = 20;

EJB / EE :: Same Listener MDB For Different Jms Queue?

Feb 21, 2014

Is it possible to define the same message driven bean as a listener to different queues?

The goal being to define different redelivery configuration for different kind of messages, but handle them all through a single deployment MDB for unity/entity purposes.

The other option is to have many MDBs targeted to the same source code.

Mouse Listener For Two JPanels

Jan 6, 2015

The program i am creating consists of two JPanels (currently) and one canvas. The canvas is in the center of the JFrame, while flanked by JPanels where both have 13 buttons each.

To paint a simple picture, my program will draw letters on the middle canvas when a button is clicked.

I created my own buttons that implement the ActionListener interface , so when a button is clicked it will display its character in the console. But my question is, How do you implement the listener to draw something on the Canvas when the button's are clicked?

AWT Action Listener In Swing GUI?

Feb 22, 2014

I'm using Eclipse with the Window Builder Pro plugin to create a Java program. I noticed that when I had Eclipse create an action listener for a combobox in a Swing GUI it created an AWT listener.

Did I choose the wrong type of listener? I want my code to use the Swing components because I understand that they are more portable.

ATM Machine - Inner Listener Class

Mar 31, 2014

Couple of problems here...

1. I am trying to use the getSource method in my inner class, in order to set the JPasswordField within an Inner Listener Class. This is a 4 integer password, setup by my for statement in the loop. I know what I want the program to do, but I don't know the correct language to use. I want the user to press one of the keys (0-9), that value be stored in JPassword (at least I think that is how it works) and for it to display the "*" in the Field---I want this to loop 4x. How do I use the getSource() to do this.

Also, I believe I need to use the set and get methods for the password entered into the JPassField, is that correct? The inner class is not recognizing my the object password that represents the JPasswordField.

2. In my second Inner Listener Class, clearButton, I set the event.getSource method to reset the JPasswordField to " ", when the clear button is pressed. Again, the problem is that the inner class does not recognize password. Why is this the case, since it is still a part of the parent class Atm?

Java Code: import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Atm extends JFrame {
Atm(){
super("ATM");
int i = 0;
//Create Panels For ATM
JPanel buttonPanel1 = new JPanel(); //To Contain Digits 1-9
buttonPanel1.setLayout(new GridLayout(4, 3));

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Implementing Listener Of GUI In A Different Class?

Jun 26, 2014

I have two different classes called Login (in the package View) and RegButtonListener (in the package Controller). I want to use the MVC pattern.

Login creates a GUI for login. I used NetBeans GUI Builder to create it.

In the class RegButtonListener there is the code for the click of the buttons, then various listeners of the GUI.

Now I want to close the login frame at the click of a button so I want to use the dispose() method.

If I had all the code (GUI code and code of the listener) in the same file, close the frame would be easy enough to do because this.dispose(). But in my case I have two different classes.

I also have a second problem.

In Login class (in the packege View) I have included the line :

regButton.addActionListener(Controller.RegButtonListener).

However, Netbeans tells me an error "package regButton does not exist. <identifier> expected". Why does he consider regButton a package? How can I fix these two problems?

How do I do then?
 
Below is the code of the two classes.

Login class.
public class Login extends javax.swing.JFrame {
/** Creates new form Login */
public Login() {
initComponents();

Custom Listener - How To Separate Interactors

Jan 12, 2014

my application shows a profile. The profile has various interactors. I'm trying to follow the MVC model, so I neeed to tell my controller that something was selected. But the profile has many elements that can be selected(mostly labels, so not setActionCommand), how do I tell it WHICH one was it?

how do I separate those interactors? I created a HashMap that maps from JLabels to Strings. When a mouse event occurs I loop trough it to search for the event source. If I find it I fire my custom event.

Servlets :: Listener Invocation Order

Sep 25, 2014

I was wondering if there is a way to be certain that listeners would be invoked in any specific order? Note that I am referring to servlet specification version prior to version 3.0. As per version 3.0, the ordering followed would be the one in web.xml (Reference: Servlet specification 3.0: Section 8.2.3). This section also says that prior to 3.0 the order of invocation is random.

Possible duplicate entry but reply does not match the specification text : URL...

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Double Listener With Inner Classes

Feb 19, 2014

In the book we made a GUI which has 2 buttons, a label and a panel (the panel is a subclass of JPanel). What the program does is the following: When I press one of the two buttons, in the panel there is a rectangle that changes its color. When I press the other button it has to change the text on the label. Now the problem is that when I start the program, the FIRST time I press the button on which the label must change, this also changes the color in the rectangle, which it should not (I also noticed that when i FIRST click the rectangle shifts a little bit to the left). After that the program works fine.

Here is my code:

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class TwoButtons{
JFrame fr;
JButton labelButton;
JButton colorButton;
JLabel label;

[Code] ....

Swing/AWT/SWT :: JComboBox Listener - Bound Action?

Jul 14, 2014

I have three JComboBoxes. When the user selects an entry in the first JComboBox the entries in the second are set. For this I use an Action extends AbstractAction which is bound to the first JComboBox.

I have also bound an Action to the second JComboBox.

Problem: this also fires when the entries on the second JCombox are added which leads to a Nullpointer.

I need a Listener which only reacts to user input, and does not react when the model of the JComboBox is changed.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Pass On Object To Event Listener

Sep 22, 2014

I’m teaching myself Java. I am a fairly proficient programmer in other languages, but this is the first OO language I’m doing.I have a question that is a bit hard to summarize. Or it should be: how can I pass on an object (or variable) to an event listener?

I am writing an application in which you can play a Sudoku game. I have separated the “logic” or the “model”(the classes with Sudoku data structures and methods to manipulate them) from the presentation (the view and the controller).The main method starts off as follows:

SudokuModel model = new SudokuModel();
SudokuView viewController = new SudokuViewController(model);

The first line creates class for the logic and the second line creates the class for the view and the controller. Since the view and the controller need access to the business logic, the model is passed on to the ViewController class.The SudokuViewController class creates the user interface in Swing and it handles the user input. For the user input I have created a number of listeners, like this:

table.addKeyListener(this);

Now these listeners need access to the model since they update it. However, as far as I’m aware the only parameter passed on to an event listener is the event itself. So these event listeners do not have direct access to the model, even though it is passed on to the constructor of the class SudokuViewController.

To circumvent this, I made model2 an attribute (variable) of the class SudokuViewController. The constructor of the class sets this variable as follows:

model2 = model;

Now the event listeners have access to model2, which they can manipulate.This works. However, I think it is an ugly solution, introducing an additional object (model2). I’d like to pass on the object named model to the event listener, but this doesn’t seem to be possible.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Instantiation Of Listener Using Anonymous Inner Class

Jun 2, 2014

JMenuItem blueChoice = new JMenuItem("Blue");
blueChoice.addActionListener(new InnerMenuListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
String buttonCommandString = e.getActionCommand( );
if (buttonCommandString.equals("Red"))
redPanel.setBackground(Color.RED);
else if (buttonCommandString.equals("White"))
whitePanel.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
else if (buttonCommandString.equals("Blue"))
bluePanel.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
else
System.out.println("Unexpected error.");
}
});

Can a method in an anonymous inner class ever be private? why or why not?

How To Call Action Listener Automatically And Without Doing It Manually

May 16, 2014

I'm not a java developer, i'm a tester. I am currently testing a java swing application and to do that I have to automate how its used. IE I have to write code which will press buttons for me rather than depending on an end user to do this. I have managed to reverse engineer the entire application (hooray for me), however I am struggling to work out how to invoke methods that would typically be kicked off by a user pressing a button. how to I can call actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) method which sits in the ATMMainPanel class?

I will be calling it from inside another method which is the equivalent of the main() method.

Java Code:

public class ATMMainPanel extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
[declarations here]
//here - User is pressing the Enter button after putting in pin.
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
[code performed when button is pressed]
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Action Listener Does Not Work With Button Click

Feb 22, 2015

I have buttons created on a frame and then I register the listener from a controller in a controller-view relationship.

When I click the button on the face, the action never executes for some reason. I thought maybe there was a problem registering the listener but I can call the buttons doclick() method and it executes as it should. Perhaps I'm overlooking something really obvious here but I can't see it.

btnEight = new JButton( "8" );
// btnEight.addActionListener( controller );
btnEight.setBounds( 212, 90, 41, 23 );
frame.getContentPane().add( btnEight );

and then I add the listener

public void setController( ActionListener theController ) {
Component[] components = frame.getContentPane().getComponents();
for ( Component component : components ) {
if ( component instanceof JButton ) {
JButton button = ( JButton ) component;
button.addActionListener( theController );
}
}

again, when i click the button nothing happens. but if i add the following code

btnEight.doclick()

the actionPerformed invokes in theController as I intended.

You can see the entire project on GitHub so you can see the full context. The controller class contains the listener and the view class contains the buttons.
