Swing/AWT/SWT :: Implementing JTabbedPane GUI?
Aug 21, 2014
I have been trying to learn how to use the TabbedPane GUI. I can get the tabs to show up, but the buttons I have placed in each tab do not show up. Why this is not working. I assume that, for some reason, the buttons are not linking with their respective panels, or the panels are not linking to the respective tabs.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JTabbedPane;
[Code] ....

Consider this simplistic scenario,
tabbedPane.addChangeListener(new ChangeListener() {
@Override
public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent e) {
}
});
How do I trigger this listener, say when I return from a JDialog, I can't make this listener to swing into action even I tabbedPane.revalidate();

I think, is of concern to a large Swing-JTabbedPane users and which does not appear in the Sun-Oracle tutorial [URL]
How to add functionality to the hidden 'Action Listener' of JTabbedPane to obtain the two following functionalities, when passing from Tab_Panel_1 to Tab_Panel_2 ?
- To call a home made function as very last task when the 'tab selection change' is triggered and just before control and visibility are leaving Tab_Panel_1.
For example : Calculations and table fillings need to be operated. One assume that the fact of leaving Tab_Panel_1 (by clicking another 'tabPanel') means that the input data in Tab_Panel_1 are completely introduced and that calculations and/or table fillings may occur (to be used by other 'Tab_Panel's).
- At the moment of entering Tab_Panel_21 or Tab_Panel_22, the very first task is to use the previous calculation results and/or table fillings as input parameter of methods own to Tab_Panel_21 and Tab_Panel_22.
For example, these data are further processed and used to feed a graph, different for Tab_Panel_21 and Tab_Panel_22.
tabbedPane.addChangeListener(new ChangeListener()?
SwingWorker?
SelectionChanged?

No matter what I did, and searching for every piece of setBackground, The background color of the JTabbedPane is light blue.
public final class MainFrame extends javax.swing.JFrame implements Runnable, WindowListener,
WindowFocusListener,
WindowStateListener {
Container mainPanel;
JPanel bluePanel = new JPanel();
CloseButtonTabbedPane tabbedPane;

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();
[code]....

I'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:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.event.KeyListener;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTextArea;
import java.awt.event.MouseListener;
[Code] ....

I am messing around with a Swing application and am a bit stuck as to how to join the front and back ends.This is the code for the DataManager class which is responsible for loading and saving objects and interfacing with rest of the system. The data I need displayed comes from a .txt file in the applications directory. I need to show certain aspects of the data in the JComboBoxes in the GUI class.
Java Code:
package programdataapplication;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class DataManager {
[code]....
how I can join back-end and GUI classes.

Is it possible to programmatically simulate a click event on a tab (JTabbedPane) to trigger its changeListener once a button is clicked ?

I have a problem here ive been trying to figure out and im not sure what the problem is. I have a JTabbedPane with an amount of tabs that match the amount in a JSlider. The amount can change dynamically.
What i want to do is have it so that if someone clicks the second tab it goes to value 2 on the JSlider etc... Should it be simple as adding a changeListener to each and going
slider.setValue(tabs.getSelectedIndex());
tabs.setSelectedIndex(slider.getValue());
It doesn't seem to have any effect. Is it some kind of scope issue maybe or is this code wrong?

Ok, so I'm making a game with a space ship that flies around the universe and discovering new planets. It works fine so far, but I'm looking to make it perform better and be better compatible with lesser-processors.So, I'm trying to put in an FPS counter and an entirely new game loop so that my game can decide for me what FPS I should use.
I have two classes. Heres the big, main one: [Java] package cyentw.game.src; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Font; impor - Pastebin.com *I want to change the loop and put an FPS counter in around line 456, you can scroll past the rest if you'd like*And heres the init frame one, in case you'd like to see it for some reason.
Java Code:
package cyentw.game.src;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class Start extends JFrame{
public static JFrame frame;
public static int WIDTH = 500;
public static int HEIGHT = 500;
public Start() {
[code]....
how to make my game loop as quickly (or a bit slower) as it can, and my FPS is static.

overriding of the compare method.
Here's an example I found:
public class Someone {
String name;
int age;
ArrayList <Someone> listarr = new ArrayList <Someone>();
public Someone(String name1, int age1) {
name = name1;
age = age1;
[code]...
1. In the compare method, what happens when it returns one of the 0, -1, or 1? How does returning such values contribute to the sorting process? How does it take in information (like I know it does through the parameters, but how exactly)?
2. Why do we use the class name for the generics?

I am supposed to implement a custom Map interface and I'm having some trouble with this method:
// 1. From the interface
/**
* Gives an iterator iterating over the key set from the smallest key that is not less than the key provided.
* @param key the key
* @return the iterator
* @throws NullPointerException if key == null
*/
public Iterator<Key> tailIterator(Key key);
[Code] .....
My implementation is wrong according to a JUnit test. Also, to get a full score this method should have a worst case running time of O(log N), which obviously isn't the case now. (My Map implementation is currently based on binary search in an ordered array, keeping a prallel array for the values).

I have always wanted to program A*, Breath First Search and Depth First Search ever since I took AI. I will only post BFS at the moment but it is only searching the row.
Java Code:
//Breath First Search. The first node passed to it is the start button
void bfs(Mybuttons button){
Queue<Mybuttons> q = new LinkedList<Mybuttons>();
q.add(button);
button.setIcon(button.setButtonToBlueWhileSearched());
button.model.visted=true;
[Code] ....
Output:
Java Code: In while loop
In get Child Node
In get Child Node

Say you have a bunch of animals, `Rat` `Cat` `Dog` and `Fish`, and you want to serialize/deserialize these animals. Each has its own `serialize()` method. That all works fine and good, if you want to save your Cat to a file, you call `Cat.serialize()` and then you write it to a file.
But what about deserializing? Sure, you could save an extra bit of data that states the type of animal, then use reflection to get a static method (say, `deserialize(String serialized)`) and then invoke it. But that's not safe. What if someone creates a new animal 'Rabbit' and doesn't include a `deserialize(String serialized)` method? Sure, you could then just catch the error and ignore the issue, but that seems unclean and bad practice.
You could also create an enum. Each item in the enum must have a `deserialize(String serialized)` method, and the aforementioned piece of data that states the type references the name of its enum item. Problem is, not very adaptable. Enums don't allow for other animals to be added at runtime.
The way I have been solving this issue is mapping the name of the objects against a deserializer object. Basically each animal would have to 'register' itself by entering it's name and deserializer (implements `Deserializer` interface) object into a HashMap. The deserializer object can then be retrieved via the name of the animal at a later time.
My question is, what is the best method to go about implementing deserialization? Also, is the method I have been using good/bad practice?
Finally, if you are wondering why animals would be added at runtime, the reason is because animals might be added by other non accessible parts of the program, or by things such as plugins.
Example of the method I have been using is below.
Animal Interface
Java Code:
public class Animal{
public String serialize();
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); Deserializer Interface
[code]....
And when you needed to deserialize:
Java Code:
Deserializer d=AnimalSpecies.getSpeciesDeserializer(serialized.split(AnimalSpecies.DELIMITER)[0]);
if (d!=null){
d.deserialize(serialized);
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
What I mean by this is that any serialized Animal must have a way of identifying which animal it is so that it's deserializer can be accessed. This can be worked around by implementing a wrapper that adds this information directly before it is written to a file, and removes it directly before deserialization.
Why not use built in serialization/deserialization? I would like the serialized data to be readable and easily editable.

in my class is implement a heap and use some of the methods we were provided. The methods I was provided to code and use are "siftDown", "isEmpty" and "heapify". I'm pretty sure the code I have written for "heapify" and "isEmpty" is correct, where I think I am finding fault is the code for my "siftDown". Would you mind taking a look at my code and see why when adding integers to the heap object that I have created in the main code, that they are not being output correctly?
public class Tester {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Heap myHeap = new Heap();
myHeap.insert(9);
myHeap.insert(15);
myHeap.insert(6);
myHeap.insert(4);
myHeap.insert(10);
myHeap.insert(9);
myHeap.insert(3);

I am building a frogger game and am having some trouble implementing collisions. I've been going off of various different tutorials and it seems like my frogCollisions function should work based off them, but no matter where I place it collisions aren't registering. Here is the frogCollisions function I am trying to use. I don't think it is very efficient to be checking all of the items in my manager class every loop, but can't think of another way to do this with manager classes. You can see my full code on my github if you would like to see the whole project. It's at: URL....
public void frogCollisions() {
for(int i = 0; i < carManager.smSize(); i++) {
if(f.intersects(carManager.smCars.get(i).getRect())){
player.decreaseLives();
System.out.println(player.getLives());
checkGameOver(); // NEED TO IMPLEMENT STILL

I tried to write a program to implement a stack but it has a bug I am unable to solve.The bug is that whenever I choose an operation to perform, eg push, After performing the operation, the loop is executed once again and Invalid choice message appears, i.e. the default case. And then the loop again executes to choose further option. Here is my code
class Stack {
private char[] stck;
private int len;
private int top;

i was leaning inheritance and tried to implement it in Java.This is my base class vehicl.java
public class vehicle{
private int topSpeed;
private int cubicCap;
private String modelName;
private boolean hasAlloy;
[code]...
I also have a derived class called car.java.What i wanted to do in the derived class was that i wanted to override the constructor as well as the getInfo() method from the base class.I wanted to add an additional attribute to the car "numberSeats" and display tat too when the object to car class calls the getInfo() method .It showed an error "identifier required" when i tried to compile car.java program.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class car extends vehicle{
//int numberSeats;
//System.out.println("Enter the number of Seats");
Scanner numberSeats=new Scanner(System.in);
numberSeats=numberSeats.nextInt();
//System.out.println(numberSeats.nextInt());
[code]....
explain the errors that i get when i tried to compile car.java without using super keyword or without defining the constructor from the Car class ?

I have situation where a user can request java server to send a value to an embedded device, and if the device is asleep, that value needs to be stored in a queue until the device wakes up and sends a position to java server, at which point the server checks if there is a value in the queue and if there is, it then sends that value to the device. The maximum size of the queue is 1 for now. And if the user makes continuous requests to java server, the old value is removed and the new value is added.
Initially I was looking into BlockingQueue, but the problem with that is, well, it blocks. queue.put(value) will block if queue is full, and queue.take() will block if queue is empty. I can't have something that blocks. When the device responds to server, server checks if value is in queue, if it is not then the server carries on the rest of its responsibility. Thus, I then entertained ConcurrentLinkedQueue. While queue.offer(value) and queue.poll(); allow you to add and remove values respectively from the queue without blocking, it does not allow you to set a maximum size limit of the queue. My queue must have a maximum size limit and it has to always be the newest value the user submits to the queue (where old values are removed).So this is what I came up with:
Java Code: class Unit {
private List<Integer> cmdQueue;
public Unit(){
cmdQueue = Collections.synchronizedList(new LinkedList<Integer>());
[code]....
I use Collections.synchronizedList, as I do here, do I still need to use synchronize as I did above?

i have been given a homework assignment where I have to get rid of a stack object I wrote for a program and replace it with the Stack<E> library java offers ie:
public class Stack<E> extends Vector<E> {
public Stack(); // constructor
public Boolean empty();
public E peek();
public E pop();
public E push(E item);
}
my question is do i have to actually write all these methods? Or can i just construct a stack and use the methods?

I've been assigned to write a program that will convert binary to decimal that uses the try/catch block. In the program that I have written, I was wondering if it is possible to write an addition catch statement that will present an error if any number other than a 0 or 1 is entered by the user. I have already done this in the binaryToDecimal method, but I am just messing around to see if it is, in fact, possible.
Java Code:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class BinaryToDecimal {
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

Basically I want to make a class called library, but I don't want to make an interface because I actually want to define the methods. I think I can only use abstract classes but not really sure how to use those. But I still have a problem, I want to create a Map that classes implementing Library class have to have in their code, and the Map will be a HashMap with <String, ParentClassHere>, so basically let's say I make a class called Car, implemeing Library to the Car class would create a Map library = new HashMap<String, Car>. Can I do something like this? And also include methods to get values and set values to the library Map?

I am trying to implement a singly linked list. My singly linked list, where I implemented a class named linkedlist, that I defined (this implementation of linkedlist is not the java class linkedlist, it is my own version of linkedlist):
Java Code:
public class SinglyLinkedList<E> implements LinkedList<E> {
public class Node<E> {
public Node<E> next;
public E element;
public Node(E element) {
this.element = element;
}
public Node (E element, Node<E> next) {
[code]...
But when I go to my main method to add into my SinglyLinkedList, it doesn't add anything.

Is there something special about this? I would think not, however all of the buttons in my application work except those with images.Here's an example of one:
Java Code: // Class #1
// All components defined as private initially, used in initComponents() later to build GUI
private JButton btnRock = new JButton();
/** Create the frame. **/
public GameView() {
initComponents(); // Initialize components
} // End of GameView Method
public void initComponents() {
// ROCK BUTTON
btnRock = (JButton) mainController.createIcon("rock");
btnRock.setForeground(new Color(0, 0, 0));
btnRock.setBounds(12, 34, 97, 67);
