What I want to do is have a label that is updated whenever an object gets some new, relevant data.The way you do it in Java looks different from the way we do it in Objective-C. In Objective-C, we have what's known as a protocol. An Objective-C protocol is almost exactly like a Java "implementation." In Obj-C, if I want the user to see the address of where he is, I can have an object that gets the information and invokes a view controller's method; at that point, the view controller would then take the data passed to it and display the data in a label. However, the view controller is an instance of a subclass of the bundled view controller class.
I am trying to find either some references to point me on the right track with passing an object with all of it's properties still in tact after it's been created. Currently I am trying to do this through an interface but it seems to just create a new object everytime without the properties. Example below :
import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; public interface TPerson{ //public Person p = null; } class Thrower { Person p;
[code]....
When I implement the interface on the other objects as soon as I call the setP method shown above it seems to just create a new one even though I pass the object to the method I want to use.
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();
I've been writing classes over and over for school. So I create a class outside of my main class. I create a new constructor and then create objects from my main class. I hope that makes sense. So i use methods in that class to work with the object. So I have an object name I've created <dot> method name. So I can create objects and then use methods from the class, but I'm wondering can I create a method in my main class and use it on that object? I don't understand how to do that.
I am working on a program that will allow a user to input grades for a class of four students who have taken two tests. Based on the grades entered, the program will calculate the averages of the two tests for each student and display it along with their respected letter grades.
Now I can get the program to compile successfully, but after inputting the grades in, I get the error message saying that it cannot format given object as a number. I am using 4 arrays to execute this program and maybe that's why I'm having the trouble? I'm not sure because I am still fairly new at this stuff and can't sen to resolve it.
I was having problems for a while and then finally got excited when I got it to compile without any errors and now I'm getting an error inside my program. All I need to do is format the numbers of the grades into something like: 000, and each of the averages as 000.0. I understand how to do it because I have done it in another program I've done in the past. I just don't know how to fix this error that is coming up.
here is my code:
import java.util.Scanner; import java.text.DecimalFormat; public class TestAverage { /** * A program that will store and process 2 test scores for a class of 4 students. * The program will prompt for the test scores as shown above in the sample run. * After all the data is entered,the program will display the score for test 1, test 2 . * The average of the 2 tests and the letter grade for the class for each student in a tabular format. * *
Create an equals method that takes an object reference and returns true if the given object equals this object.
Hint: You'll need 'instanceof' and cast to a (Geocache)
So far I have:
public boolean equals(Object O){ if(O instanceof Geocache){ Geocache j=(Geocache) O; if (this.equals(j)) //I know this is wrong... but I can't figure it out return true; }
else return false; }
I think I have it correct up to the casting but I don't understand what I'm suppose to do with the this.equals(). Also I'm getting an error that I'm not returning a boolean... I get this all the time in other problems. I don't get why since I have to instances of returning booleans in this. "returns true if the given object equals this object" makes no sense to me. I assume the given object, in my case, is 'O'. What is 'this' object referring to?
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerExceptionat DogTestDrive.main(DogTestDrive.java:19)
Here is the source
class Dog { int size; String name; void bark () { if (size < 60) { System.out.println("Woof woof");
[code]....
Some background: I'm reading "Head first Java 2nd edition" and I'm going through the examples which is showing me how to change the state of an object. The original code looks like the code below, however the previous chapter went over creating array's of an object, so I created an array of the object "Dog" and wanted to re-write it this way. To my understanding, it should work but it's giving me that error when I execute it. The error itself isn't very clear, if I could get a line number pointed to, that would work.
class Dog { int size; String name; void bark() { if (size > 60) { System.out.println(“Wooof! Wooof!”); } else if (size > 14) { System.out.println(“Ruff! Ruff!”); } else { System.out.println(“Yip! Yip!”);
I am new to Java and have read books, the Java docs, and searched the Internet for my problem to no avail. I have an Array of objects that contains strings. How can I get the object's strings to print in a list so that the user can select that object to manipulate its attributes? For example, the user can select "Guitar 1" from a list and manipulate its attributes like tuning it, playing it, etc. I have a class called Instruments and created 10 guitar objects.Here is the code:
Instrument [] guitar = new Instrument[10]; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { guitar[0] = new Instrument("Guitar 1"); guitar[1] = new Instrument("Guitar 2"); guitar[2] = new Instrument("Guitar 3"); guitar[3] = new Instrument("Guitar 4"); guitar[4] = new Instrument("Guitar 5"); guitar[5] = new Instrument("Guitar 6");
Now lets say that I want to access a method 'addInterest()' that is in the 'SavingsAccount' class I would have to do: '((SavingsAccount)s).addInterest();'
The question I have is why do I have to cast 'b' to SavingsAccount? Isn't the actual object reference of 'b' already an instance of 'SavingsAccount' class? How does the 'BankAccount' affect the object itself? I'm really confused as to what class is truly getting instantiated and how BankAccount and SavingsAccount are both functioning to make the object 'b'.
I don't understand why the object reference variable 'a' cannot be recast from a thisA object reference to a thisB object reference.Is it the case that once a reference variable is linked to a particular object type then it cannot switch object types later on.I am facing the Java Associate Developer exam soon and I am just clearing up some issues in my head around object reference variable assignment,
class thisA {} class thisB extends thisA { String testString = "test";} public class CastQuestion2 { public static void main(String[] args) { thisA a = new thisA(); thisB b = new thisB();
I am trying to get this to where I can type in a name and it will search through each object and print back the corresponding object info.
Java Code:
import java.util.Scanner; public class MyPeople { public static void main(String[] args) { Person[] p = new Person[] { new Person("Chris", 26, "Male", "NJ", "Single"), new Person("JoAnna", 23, "Female", "NJ", "Single"), new Person("Dana", 24, "Female", "NJ", "Single"), new Person("Dan", 25, "Male", "NJ", "Single"), new Person("Mike", 31, "Male", "NJ", "Married") };
Task:The main method of the class Things below creates an object called printer deriving from the class PrintingClass and uses that object to print text. Your task is to write the PrintingClass class.
Program to complete: import java.util.Scanner; public class Things { public static void main(String args[]) { String characterString; Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in); PrintingClass printer = new PrintingClass(); System.out.print("Type in the character string for printing: "); characterString = reader.nextLine(); printer.Print(characterString); } }
// Write the missing class here
Note: In this exercise the solution is part of a conversion unit where many classes have been declared. Because of this the classes are not declared as public using the public attribute.
Example output
Type in the character string for printing: John Doe
John Doe
My Class: class PrintingClass { public void print(){ System.out.println(characterString); } }
I have just started working with linked lists. I have a linked list of Objects and I want to be able to search for a specific object. But currently my code continues to return false. Also how would I go about removing the first index of the linked list.
public static void main(String[] args) { LinkedList<Cookies> ml = new LinkedList<>(); int choice = 0; while (choice >= 0) { choice = menu();
I am reading Head First: Java and got to Object References. In the book I got a little bit confused on what happens when two object reference's point at the same object so I wrote a small crude test, the below code. This of course clarified what happens but what I am interested in knowing is in what circumstances would you want to have two separate references for the same object when you could just use the original? Eg. v1
class ObjectValue{ int objVal = 1; } class ObjectValueTestDrive{ public static void main(String [] args){ // "Value of v# should be" refers to if it copied the given object values, instead of referencing the same object ObjectValue v1 = new ObjectValue(); System.out.println("Value of v1 should be 1:" + " "+ v1.objVal);
Explain anonymous objects with example clearly...i read some where anonymous objects advantage is saving memory...it is benificiable when there is only one time object usage in our program..i can't understand one time usage of object ....i know anonymous objects but i don't know in which context we use them in our programs...i did the anonymous object program with my own example but i can't differentiate this one with normal object..i'm providing my own example below
//anonymous object public class anonymous { int x=10; int y=25; void display() { System.out.println("anomymous");
I've been trying to learn Java for the last 36 hours or so (after applying for a HTML/CSS job saying "Java knowledge preferred"), and decided to experiment a bit making a graphical tic-tac-toe game. I eventually managed to get that done and it's working. Working code below:
[Java] tic tac toe 1 - Pastebin
So, it works to an extent, however, the way I am capturing which cell is selected seems very sloppy, and would not work if the cells weren't squares or rectangles. So I made a copy of the project and restructured it adding the mouse event to the cells, but now I can't get JComponent to repaint. New code below:
tic tac toe 2 - Pastebin
Curiously, clicking triggers the action for all 9 cells, but I presume it's because I haven't bounded them making it think I've clicked all 9 simultaneously.
What I've tried:
Make the Cell class extend the game class and call this.repaint()- causes stack overflow.
Calling Game.GameState() within the cell clicking event and making that function static - compiler doesn't like calling repaint() inside a static function.
Making another class to make a clone of the Game object and then refresh- was never going to work....
java.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.
I'm not even sure if that is the right question to ask. I've been confused by what is A Graphics object for a while now, I used to think that it is simply a tool to use to change colors and draw to specific container(ie JFrame, JPanel). However, I've been studying buffering(triple, double, flipping...etc) and how it works for 3 days now, and my confusion has only increased. for instance, why when we need to draw to the buffer(ie BufferStrategy, BufferedImage) we get its own graphics object to draw to it and then we project it to the screen?
Does the Graphics Object represent the drawing surface (ie the JPanel it self if we're using one to draw custom painting via JPanel#paintComponent(Graphics g)) ? and so when we're getting the graphics object of a buffer, do we actually get its drawing surface to paint on?
So generally speaking if we are using a JPanel and we say bufferedImage#createGraphics and use that graphics object to draw to, we would not be drawing to the JPanel but to the BufferedImage correct?
I have two JFrames the first one is a log in screen where i log in to the log in server that i made using RMI . If the log in succeeds i send the user object witch is Serializable to the second JFrame.
The user object is received from the server. This object contains all the information needed in the second JFrame. This second JFrame is made inside the first one and i defined a method with witch i send this user object to the second frame.
Now the problem arises , while inside this method i am able to read all the data i need from the user object. At the end of the method i save the reference of this object in a new User object defined in the second JFrame ,because i need it later on.
But soon as this method finishes , for some reason my reference to the object becomes null , and i cant use it later on.
I' currently wrking on BeatBox application from Head First Java. I made a jpanel the pane of the frame & when i try to add a JMenuBar object to that it is not getting displayed when i run the code. When i add a menuBar directly to the JFrame object it is visible & working fine but not incase when added to JPanel.
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.
I have a number of cells which are Dates and need to have them appear in the same format. The samples I have seen usually create a new cell renderer object for each cell, even if its the same type. Since I have a number of Date cells I thought it best to use a single object for each of the date cells, but after seeing the different samples I am wondering if there is something I may be missing where using the same cell renderer object could potentially be an issue.
