Swing/AWT/SWT :: Calling Method Does Not Work From JMenuBar

Nov 6, 2014

I have a paint program in Java where I can draw objects. The objects are stored in an arrayList. In the menubar the user can chooce "Back", which means the last item in the arrayList is removed. After that I want the program to loop through the arrayList and draw the remaining items.

My problem is that when I try to do that it will not work from the menu (menuItem2). If I instead add the code to one of the colorpanels (yellowPanel), from where the user can pick colors, it works fine.

menuItem2 uses ActionListener and yellowPanel uses MouseListener.
public class PaintProgram extends JFrame implements ActionListener {

public ArrayList<Draw> shapeList = new ArrayList<>();
int startX, startY, endX, endY, w, h;
private JPanel topPanel;
private JPanel bottomPanel;
private JPanel magentaPanel;
private JPanel greenPanel;
private JPanel bluePanel;
private JPanel blackPanel;

Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Add JMenuBar

Jan 16, 2015

I am trying to add a JMenuBar to this program with just one dropdown to select one option but I am getting an error with the setJMenuBar(menuBar); line as it does not extend JFram. How I would add a menu to this program another way.

public class Calculator extends JPanel implements ActionListener{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
JMenu noteMenu = new JMenu("Note");
JMenuItem newNote = new JMenuItem("New Note");

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Can't Change Visibility Of Two JPanels When Calling Method From Button Event In Another Class

Dec 30, 2014

I have two classes involved in this portion. CheckIn_Search

(class #1) is my main UI and I am collecting search information from the user in a jPanel form. When they click "Search" it passes the search criteria to a method that contacts a web service and gets the results. These results are passed to coSearchResults

(class #2) that opens a jFrame and jTable (in modal format, over the main window created by CheckIn_Search.

The user selects a row in the table and that selection data is passed back to coSearchResults to populate a new jPanel form. When the data is passed from coSearchResults, I want to close its window, hide the first jPanel in CheckIn_Search and make the second jPanel visible. To accomplish this, I created a method in CheckIn_Search that simply hides/shows the panels (it will do more later).

I instantiate and call the method in CoSearchResults as part of the button click event. The problem is, it doesn't work. The panels are unaffected and there are no errors. I've put in break-points and it goes into the method.. Here is the coSearch_Results code.

Here is am retrieving the jtable row id and using the first value in the row to get the data from the table model as there is more data than what is displayed in the table. I'm sending that whole row of data to the method that changes visibility.

private void btnOKActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {//GEN-FIRST:event_btnOKActionPerformed
// TODO add your handling code here:
int rowNum = jTable1.getSelectedRow();
String coNum = jTable1.getValueAt(rowNum,0).toString();
String[] text;

Calling A Method From Main

Jan 26, 2014

The idea is to create a program to add plants and retrieve plants from a Nursery. I created a class with the properties of the plants and also there is the class an Array list to keep track of the plants entered ( they will have to be printed later) (I am not too sure if adding a public class there is the best option.

The program will allow the user to pick and action and from there the code will do something. I don't want to have all the code inside 'main' The problem is in line 114.This is what I have so far.

Java Code:

package plant.nursery;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Scanner;
/**Class to create a plant for a nursery.
public class PlantNursery

Calling Method Into Applet

Calling Method From Within A Class

Sep 15, 2014

I am calling a method from within a class like so:

xmlWriter.updateFile(environment, doc);

The class is xmlWriter & the method is updateFile

updateFile passes Environment environment (another class) and Document doc (document builder)

but I am unsure about it passing these through the parameters in the method call..is it correct?

Also underneath that method call for the update could I then do another method call for the export method of the file?

Calling A Method To The Main

Sep 10, 2014

I have been reading about methods and I do have a beginner level understanding on how they work. I was trying to mess around and make a dog calculator using methods. I ran into a small snag; I cannot get the method to call to the main or the program to compile correctly. The first code below is the original. To me it looks like (based off of some examples I looked at) there should be no problems, but NetBeans gives me a few errors. 1) line 8- "cannot find symbol, variable dogYearCalc; 2) line 18 illegal start of expression; and 3) line 22 - unreachable statement.

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class KrisExample {
public static void main (String[] args) {
double dogYears = 0;
JOptionPane.showInputDialog (null,"Please enter you dog's age in human years:");

[Code] ....

Someone told me that I was calling dogYearCalc without any arguments in your main method. I take that to mean that I needed to add it to the main, so I did here:

public static void main (String[] args, double dogYearCalc) {

That got rid of my first error, but then when I tried to run the program NetBeans said that I have no main class, so switched back to the original program above.

I thought that when I calling the dogYearCalc method on line 10 was the whole purpose of using a method. It seems to me that putting it somewhere in the main is counter productive.

Calling A Method On Object From Another Class?

Oct 27, 2014

I have a class for employees. This class has basic information for the employee but no real pay information. And 2 subclasses, one for employee's paid for hourly rates and one for those paid a yearly salary. Each subclass has their own pay() method, that calculates and returns their pay and extra fields relative to calculate that.

I'm just curious, if I do this and create an object for an hourly paid employee like so:

Object hourly1 = new HourlyEmployeeWilson("John Doe", "123 Tech Street",361961,"Human Resources", 0,12.50,50);

How can I utilize that classes public method of pay() to gather this instance (or hourly paid employee)'s pay? I've tried doing so via:

System.out.println(hourly1.pay());

But I get

DriverPayWilson.java:9: error: cannot find symbol
System.out.println(hourly1.pay());
^
symbol: method pay()
location: variable hourly1 of type Object
1 error

Calling A Method That Throws Exception?

I have a file greenGrow.txt, and every three lines of the file has a last name, first name, and yard size. Every time a Customer object is created, I need to read the file 3 lines and assign the object a last name, first name, and yard size.

Snippet of my code:

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Customer {
private String lastName;
private String firstName;
private int yardSize;

My issue is that I cannot call readFile() from the constructor, and I'm assuming that's because I throw Exception on readFile(). Is this a simple fix, or am I looking at it the wrong way?

Calling Object To Main Method

Oct 26, 2014

When I try to call an object it can't find the symbol in the argument list. NetBeans says that it cannot find the movieCategory symbol when I try to call it. When I compile it to test a popup comes up that states "One or more projects were compiled with errors. Application you are running may end unexpectedly. I ran it anyways and everything runs up to the point of where it should call the object.

At this point it should get the Movie object and run the code within that, but if I put one of the categories it throws. "Exception in thread "main" java. lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - Erroneous tree type: <any>at MovieApp.main(MovieApp.java:33)Java Result: 1"

From my understanding to call an object it requires objectName.methodName(argumentList). Here is my Main method

/**
*This application will store a list of 100 movies and display them by category
*/
import java.util.Scanner;
public class MovieApp
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
//Displays <code>String</code> welcome message
System.out.println("Welcome to the Movie Application.");
System.out.println("There are 100 movies in the list.");
System.out.println("What category are you interested in?");
System.out.println();

Calling Multiple Methods Into Main Method

Sep 30, 2014

This current one is to calculate a planes holding pattern. I have to write a method to prompt user to enter speed in knots, then it converts it to km/hr. Another method to calc. pattern width using the speed, another method to calc. pattern length, than a main method which would call and print out the speed in knots, speed in km, pattern width and length.My current problem is on the second method. It works in that I can enter the values and it gives me the correct answers, however it's asking me to enter the speed twice, instead of just once. Anything I try just results in errors and won't compile.

import java.util.Scanner ;
//main method
public class TitleRemoved {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double airSpeedKm = airSpeedOts () ;
System.out.println("That speed is " + airSpeedKm + " km/hr.") ;

[code].....

I want my code to not only work, but be organized and easily readable as well, so I want to avoid bad habits.
