Swing/AWT/SWT :: Event Driven Development
Feb 22, 2014I think will be easy for me start with a GUI and then make things happens when the user clic on Buttons.Is there a good book about Event driven development on Java?

Event Driven Programming / No Main Method
Jan 29, 2015I'm reading a book titled 'Intro to Java Programming'. I understand all the Main Method stuff. I'm now reading a chapter that talks about event driven programming. I know how to do this in VBA and in C#, ut I can't figure out how this works in Java. Here's the sample code that I'm trying to run.
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.geometry.Pos;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.HBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
[code]....
I'm using Net Beans IDE. When I paste that code into the IDE, I get all kinds of errors. Also, since there is no Main, I don't know how this is supposed to run. Java needs a Main Method for everything, I think. Does the Main call some kind of class?

View Replies View RelatedSwing/AWT/SWT :: Where Is Event Source Object
Feb 28, 2015java.awt.Component is an abstract class, and it's direct Sub-classes are Button, Canvas, Checkbox, Choice, Container, Label, List, Scrollbar, Text Component
So, when I use addXListener(mylistenerclass m);//which is a method of Component class which object is holding the list of all listeners, for a particular Event Source?
I am under the assumption that - there is an Event Source Object(possibly static) for every Event Source type(mouse, keyboard etc) that holds a list of destinations(classes that implements their listener interface) - added to the the object via addXListener method. When an event happens(mouse click, drag etc) the Event Source Object creates an Event Object and send it to all the destinations. Is my assumption correct? I can't seem to find the location or declaration of Event Source Object and the list where it stores it's registered destinations.

May 3, 2014I'm having difficulty implementing keyboard and mouse event handlers at the same time for a program designed to notify the user when a key has been pressed or a mouse button clicked.
I can make and understand a program that does one or the other, but when I try to combine them, either the keyboard only or the mouse only works.
here is the code:

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Multiple Textfields Using FocusGained Event
Oct 11, 2014I have a bunch of textboxes in a panel and I wanted to perform the same code when the user clicks into a textbox (select all the text in it). Right now I've started adding a focusgained listener to each textbox like this:
private void textField1FocusGained(java.awt.event.FocusEvent evt) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
textField1.selectAll();
}
});
}
[Code]...
Is there a way I can have one focusgained listener that all the textfields can point to but have it pick the right textfield in the textFieldx.selectAll();?
Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Pass On Object To Event Listener
Sep 22, 2014I’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 :: How Can Two Different Objects Receive Notification Of Same Event
Feb 23, 2015The scenario:
* A pop-up menu generates an array of rectangle objects; each rectangle having random x.y coords and colour.
* The number of rectangles in the array is user selected from the popup list.
* The APopUp class has a 'getter' method that returns the array.
* The pop-up object is instantiated in an object of the AFrame class.
* The AFrame object needs to get the array each time the popup changes its state.
The problem:
.
* As I see it, the AFrame object needs to informed of the pop-up's state of change event or does the problem lie in how I have decided
which responsibilities each class is to have? I've tried to be as logical as possible during planning.
In the days of FORTRAN or BASIC we would hammer a solution through with brute force, but I would like to keep to Java's philosophy
of encapsulation and clean interfaces and that it seems to has generated a impasse of brain warping proportions.
import java.awt.Frame;
import java.awt.Label;
import java.awt.event.ItemEvent;
import java.awt.event.ItemListener;
public class AFrame extends Frame implements ItemListener {

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Table With JCheckBox - Fire Event On Click
Feb 10, 2015I would like to get a checkbox within a table to fire an event when it's clicked rather. I gave tried putting in a TableModelListener but the the event only seems to trigger when I click on another column (as if the table is waiting to see if I will change my mind) before moving on.
I have also looked at the setValue of the TableModel itself.
Do I need to put an ActionListener on each checkbox or have I missed something ?
Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Capture MouseClick Event From JTable Within A JScrollPane
Apr 15, 2009I have a JTable that is within a JScrollPane. If I try to write add a MouseListener to the JTable it never fires.

Apr 28, 2015I have in my application a button that when it is pressed, runs a long running task (usually takes a couple of seconds....).
My problem is that while the task runs, I want to stop the button from receiving clicks. Unfortunately this is something I have not achieved.
I have tried creating a new thread and calling the long running method, and using the Display.geCurrent().asyncExec...
Examples of what I have tried so far:
myButton.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
@Override
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
if (myList.size() > 0) {
myButton.setEnabled(false);
myButton.setGrayed(true);

In both cases, while the button is disabled and the cursor busy, if the user clicks the button, the long running method is ran several times - and this is what I want to avoid.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Program Doesn't Close Though WindowClosing Event Called
Mar 25, 2014I use the right term, release resources because after clicking the close button, the DOS prompts becomes unresponsive. So I have to close the DOS prompt, then reopen it, then type in the path again for the Java folders. Can you check where did I go wrong with my code? Is my placement of the WindowListener and WindowAdapter incorrect? Please refer to my code below:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Proj6exe1 extends JFrame implements ActionListener
{
DataOutputStream dataLabas;
JTextField rainFallField;
JButton submit;
String strRainFall;
JPanel proj6Panel;
[code]...
I have other programs where the placement of the WindowListener and WindowAdapter are as exactly like this (within the class constructor block) where they close correctly and some that behave like this, that renders the DOS prompt unresponsive.
Swing - WindowStateChanged Event Updates Window Size After It Completes
Feb 12, 2014I have a JFrame where some elements (one, for now) have to be centered manually on the contentPane when resizing the window or changing the window state. Resizing event (componentResized) works fine but the windowStateChanged event is causing problems because it doesn't seem to "update" the contentPane's new size properly - it keeps the previous value although the window's size is obviously changed. This can be seen by simply printing the result of getSize called on contentPane.
Centering is done by programmatically changing the constraint of the component (using putConstraint, SpringLayout). The issue is that getWidth used in that method returns "wrong" values which results in an uncentered component. Maybe another listener is needed here?
Additional info: Eclipse with WindowBuilder, Linux Mint 15, Java 1.7
I know about SSCCE guidelines but I cannot make this particular example both ready to compile and short.For unknown reasons, I am unable to post the code example. I keep getting this - "Post denied. New posts are limited by number of URLs it may contain and checked if it doesn't contain forbidden words."
addWindowStateListener(new WindowStateListener()
{
// no "@Override" was generated but it is the same with it
public void windowStateChanged(WindowEvent e)
{
System.out.println("EVENT: " + contentPane.getSize() + ", "
+ getExtendedState() + ", " + e.getOldState()); // amusingly, states are actually correct - interchanging between 0 (Frame.NORMAL) and 6 (Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH) when I maximize and "unmaximize"

Database Driven CD Collection App
Feb 27, 2014I am using mysql database and I have downloaded the library also I have managed to get the database connection and query working. I need to know if I need to create separate classes to add/remove/edit items and view items? Do I need to put my database connection script in every class that I create or should I create methods for both the connection and the queries that will be called in the additional classes or methods that I have?
Below is what I have written so far and it is working, I will change the database and query soon to reflect the task I need to do because I have followed a tutorial.
Java Code:
/**
* cdCollection.java
*/
package org.com.mm00422_prototype;
//Import for the SQL package
import java.sql.*;
//Registering the JDBC driver
//Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

Deploying Data Driven Java App
Dec 10, 2014I have created a database driven Java app that i would like to deploy to several PCs. The App uses JReports which only worked when i installed Javac on this laptop. It worked fine within Netbeans but after building it depended on the java compiler and only worked after setting up Path variable..
Will i need to setup the Javac on every machine or is there any way of deploying it easier?
Swing/AWT/SWT :: Can't Change Visibility Of Two JPanels When Calling Method From Button Event In Another Class
Dec 30, 2014I 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;

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Window To Submit Data Freezing When Created Inside Mouse Clicked Event
Feb 18, 2014I'm trying to right a GUI in swing, and as part of my program, I want to open a secondary window out of the main window when a mouse clicks on the main window. Then, once I click a button on the secondary window, I want that window to close and submit data to the main window (like an info form). I have almost figured out how to do this, except for one problem. By putting a variable inside my form window called "ready," and then in my main window running a loop that constantly checks if ready is true and doesn't proceed until its true, I can create the form window, modify the values in it (currently just one value called "difficulty" that's modified by a jSlider), and then when i click the "begin" button, ready is changed to true, the form window closes, and the main window can proceed. However, when I try to put the while loop checking the ready variable inside a mouseClicked method in the main window, the form window freezes when it opens, and you can't see any of its content or modify it in any way (you can't even close it).
Here is my code:
//form window class
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
public class formWindow extends JFrame {
private JTextField instructions1;

Allow User To Change And View State Of Credit Card With Menu Driven Program
Apr 20, 2015I am new to OOP, i am not sure if this is the correct approach or not. Write a class named CreditCard that has (at least) the following member variables:
- name. A String that holds the card holder's name.
- cardNumber. A field that holds the credit card number.
- balance. A double that stores the current credit card balance.
- spendingLimit. A double that stores the spending limit of the card holder.
- Bonus: additional fields that you can think of.
In addition, the class should have the following member functions:
- Constructor. The constructor should accept the card holder's name and card number and assign these values to the object's corresponding member variables. The constructor should initialize the spending limit to $2,000 and the balance to $0.
- Accessors. Appropriate accessor functions should be created to allow values to be retrieved from an object's member variables.
- purchase. This function should add the amount specified as a parameter to the balance member variable each time it is called.
- increaseSpendingLimit. This function should add 500 to the spendingLimit member variable each time it is called.
- payBill. This function should reset the balance to 0.
- Input validation: Whenever a credit card number is modified, verify that it is of reasonable length.
Demonstrate the class in a program that creates a CreditCard object and allows the user to change and view the state of the credit card with a menu driven program.
View Card Information.
- Purchase an Item: ask the user the purchase amount and increase the card balance accordingly.
- Pay Bill: call payBill method to set the balance to 0.
- Increase Spending Limit: ask the user how much the spending limit should be, and call the increaseSpendingLimit function the appropriate number of times.
[CODE]
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class CreditCard
{
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
//data members
private String holderName;
private int cardNumber;
private int accountBalance;
private double spendingLimit;

Swing/AWT/SWT :: What Is Event-dispatching Thread For GUIs And Why Use It Over Main Thread
Sep 20, 2014I'm currently learning about Swing but I can't get my head round this piece of the code. Here is a simplified gui (not interested in the gui part but the execution)
public class SwingDemo implements ActionListener {
SwingDemo(){
JFrame jfrm = new JFrame("Simple gui pro");
//rest of code
public static void main(String[] args) {
new SwingDemo();
}
I get the above, create a new instance of SwingDemo in the main thread which starts up the gui through the constructor. However, then the tutorial says that I should avoid doing the above but do this instead:
public class SwingDemo implements ActionListener {
SwingDemo(){
JFrame jfrm = new JFrame("Simple gui pro");
//rest of code
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { //why do this instead?
public void run(){
new SwingDemo();
}
});
}
}
Reading, it talks about an event-dispatching thread which has completely lost me... Why not just instantiate the object directly instead of creating another thread?
