Creating Instance Of A Class That Implements Runnable

Jul 31, 2014

I'm reading about threads In Head First Java and the way an Instance of a class that Implements Runnable Is created confuses me a little.

public class MyRunnable implements Runnable ......
Runnable ThreadJob = new MyRunnable();

I thought I had to use this syntax :

MyRunnable ThreadJob =new MyRunnable();

Ball Object Which Implements Runnable Interface And Traces Various Positions Of A Ball

Feb 11, 2014

a) I have a Ball Object which implements the Runnable interface and traces the various positions of a ball.

b) I then have a Ball_Bounce JPanel inside a JFrame which creates two instances of the Ball object and then paints them to the JPanel.

As per my understanding, when the main() program in Ball_Bounce.java is started, there a total of three threads running in this program, one for each ball and one for the main(). What I cannot understand is whenever the balls collide, I end up getting the "Collision" message twice even though the collision is checked only in the main() thread.

[#]public class Ball implements Runnable
{
private boolean xUp, yUp, xUp1, yUp1;
private int x, y, xDx, yDy;
private final int MAX_X = 500, MAX_Y = 500;
private boolean flag = true;
private static Thread ball;

Error - Creating Instance Of Inner Class

Mar 22, 2014

Java Code:

package Threads;
// THIS PROGRAM WILL HAVE TWO THREADS i.e. "main" AND ANOTHER THREAD (SYSTEM WILL NAME IT "Thread-0"
//THE STORY IS THAT WE WILL START Thread-0 FROM main AND LET IT EXECUTE.
//main WILL WAIT AND LET IT EXECUTE FOR 5 MINUTES.
//IF IT FINISHES ITS EXECUTION BEFORE 5 MINUTES, WELL AND GOOD;
//BUT IF IT DOESN'T, WE WILL INTERRUPT IT.
//AFTER INTERRUPTION, WE WILL DECIDE TO WAIT INDEFINITELY.

public class SimpleThreadsCopy {
public static void threadMessage(String s){
String sThreadName= Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.format("%s: %s%n", sThreadName, s);

[Code] ....

The statement against which I have written many *'s gives the following error.

No enclosing instance of type SimpleThreadsCopy is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type SimpleThreadsCopy (e.g. x.new A() where x is an instance of SimpleThreadsCopy).

Now that a similar "error-free" code is given here, what's wrong with this piece of code and what should I do about it?

Trying to understand the error statement, I replaced the erroneous statement with

Java Code : Thread t= new Thread(new SimpleThreadsCopy().new MessageLoop()); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

And the error got fixed. From that I understand that the inner class is just kinda a nonstatic member of the outer class and it will be accessed by the objects of the outer class only.

But then why doesn't the code in the tutorial give an error?

Creating Instance Variables And Constructors For Map Class

Mar 27, 2014

I have to create an application that deals with maps.

I first have to create the instance variables for the class.

So very simply if my hashmap is going to consist of football clubs and players. Football clubs being a string value for the key and players being a set of strings for the values. How would I go about creating the instance variable in a class for this?

I can't seem to find anything that specifically deals with instance variables and constructors for maps.

Creating Instance Methods And Driver Class

May 5, 2014

Okay, so I have to create a class with instance data and instance methods.

First, BankAccount class. It should contain the following information, stored in instance variables:

First name: The customer's first name.
Last name: The customer's last name
Balance: The amount of money the customer has in the account.

It should have the following methods:

BankAccount(String firstName, String lastName,
double openingBalance)

This constructor creates a new BankAccount

public String firstName()
Returns the customer's first name
public String lastName()
Returns the customer's last name
public double balance()
Returns the customer's account balance

Finally I need to create a driver to test my class. And create several accounts and verify that the first name, last name, and balance methods work properly. This is my code below.. I don't know if I did it right.

public class BankAccount {
String firstName, lastName;
double balance;
public BankAccount(String firstName, String lastName, double balance) {

[Code] .....

Create SmartString Class That Implements SmartStringInterface Class

Jun 3, 2014

The assignment is to create a SmartString class that implements a SmartStringInterface class (created by professor) and implements a few methods. We are basically taking a string and then taking various substrings and inserting, deleting them and undoing changes as well. Here are the methods in the interface to use along with the parameters.

public interface SmartStringInterface {
public void insert(int pos, String sstring);
public void delete(int pos, int count);
public void undo();
public String toString();

The Undo is supposed to be able to be called multiple times (to be tested using a driver program that we must create) but the part that's got me is that the changes are only supposed to be stored. Currently, I am storing the "new" string after each change onto a stack, so that undo can just pop off the stack and it will revert to the previous string. Professor said that was wrong, so I don't know how to do it. Here is what I have so far (some of the code we have is using default StackADT stuff from our book, so if you need that I can post as well. You can see in the undo method where I currently save the string. We can use multiple stacks if needed, but the less the better. Must use at least 1. The exception code is already coded for us in another file also. I am only having to code these methods and the driver to test.

import java.util.Arrays;
public class ArrayStack<T> implements StackADT<T>
private final static int DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 100
private int top;
private T[] stack;

How To Enforce Any Class Which Implements Interface Should Also Implement Comparable Too

Dec 15, 2014

How do you enforce any class which implements an interface should also implement comparable too? Say for instance you may have an interface

public interface Task
{ ... }
public class DoThis implements Task { ... }
public class DoThis1 implements Task { ... }

I want all of the classes which implements the interface Task to implement comparable too. Of course I can just say implements Task, Comparable. But is there something which we could do from interface level, i mean interface Task level?

Creating Instance Of Circle With A Diameter Of 50 And Green Colour

Jan 6, 2015

I have two classes LightController & Circle. I need to use the LightController class to do the following:

Creates an instance of Circle with a diameter of 50 and a colour of OUColour.GREEN and assigns this new circle to the instance variable light.

Sets the xPos of light to 122.
Sets the yPos of light to 162.

I am struggling to write the correct line of code to set the colour to green and set diameter to 50.

Code for the two classes below.

import ou.*;
import java.util.*;
/**
* Class LightController
* This class uses the Circle class, and the Shapes window to simulate a disco light, that grows and shrinks and changes colour.
*/

public class LightController
{
/* instance variables */
private Circle light; // simulates a circular disco light in the Shapes window
private Random randomNumberGenerator;

Difference Between Instance And Class Variable

Mar 25, 2014

I'm having trouble to fully understand the difference between instance and class variables.

I though it was all about the static, i.e:

int age; // instance variable
static int age; // class variable

What's behind this?

Accessing Variables From Array Instance Of Class?

Jan 26, 2015

I am having some problem accessing variables from an array instance of a class. Heres what i have done;

In the main class:

Example obj[]= new Example[4];

In the main class constructor:

obj[0] = new Example(0);
obj[1] = new Example(1);
obj[2] = new Example(2);
obj[3] = new Example(3);

In the main update() method:

if(condition)
//update

In the Example class constructor:

private boolean change = false;

In the Example class update() method:

if(x >20)
change= true;

Now, i want to access the variable change from the main class, how do i do it? The 'condition' in the if statement is the condition of wether the change variable ia true or false. How do i access it?

Test To See If Object Is Instance Of Interface Class

Mar 7, 2015

I am currently trying to use Junit to test a whole bunch of stuff. I almost have full line coverage but I am getting hung up on testing an if statement that consists of whether or not an object is an instance of another class. This class happens to be an interface, and even the object is an interface. Weird I know but I just want to know how to get into that if statement. I realize testing interfaces might be a waste of time but I still really want to know how. Here is an example of what I am trying to test:

Java Code:

if(x instance of y){ //where x and y are both interface objects
doSomething();
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

How To Write Instance Method For Rectangle Class Called Contains

May 29, 2014

Write an instance method, contains, that has one explicit parameter of type Rectangle. The method should return true if every point of the rectangle determined by the explicit parameter is on or within the rectangle determined by the implicit parameter. It should return false otherwise.

This is what i did so far?

public boolean contains(Rectangle other) {
Rectangle intersect = Rectangle.intersection(this, other);
if ((intersect.left == this.left) && (intersect.bottom == this.bottom) && (intersect.width == this.width)
&& (intersect.height == this.height)) {
return true;

return false;

Performing Method On Instance Inside Abstract Class

Mar 12, 2015

How do I create an instance of a class in a method?

I am a bit rusty whenever I think of instances. I always think of main method and objects when I see instance which gets me confused on what to do when I am not in a main method. The example:

I have a abstract class, School, and inside School I have some methods that must preform some action on an instance. For example, there is a move() method that must move the instance of School. Another method named, personOld(), which returns whether or not an instance of School surpassed some determined age.

How do I do this and create this instance?

Create A Class That Includes Three Pieces Of Information As Instance Variables

Oct 9, 2014

Creating a class. Specification are given as:

Create a class called Employee that includes three pieces of information as instance variables:

-Employee ID (string type)
-first name (string type) (default value 'John')
-last name (string type) (default value 'Smith') and
-monthly salary (type double).
-No argument constructor that initializes the three instance variables. The employee id should be generated using the following process:

The employee id should be a combination of first initial, last initial and a number starting from 10001 for the first employee and increasing by one for each employee. e.g. if John Smith is the first employee then its id will be JS10001 and if George Brown is the second employee then its id will be GB10002

-Provide get and set methods for each instance variable. The set method for monthly salary should ensure that its value remains positive - if an attempt is made to assign a negative value, leave the original value.

Method That Return Instance Of A Class That Implement Iterator Interface

Apr 14, 2015

I have been researching the Iterator and making a class implement iterable. I have seen this example shown below and was wondering how I could change this so that iterable() is not called upon in the main. I would like to be able to make a method that returns an instance of a class that implements the Iterator interface hopefully an inner class. This is because my program will not have a main and will be supplied with a main that includes a new Object with will use the iterator method.

import java.util.*;
public class IteratorDemo {
public static void main(String args[]) {
// Create an array list
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
// add elements to the array list
al.add("C");

[Code] ....

This is all I have been able to understand from what I want to do. This does not work and this is what I am trying to achieve

public class MyArrayList implements Iterable {
public static final int DEFAULT_SIZE = 5;
public static final int EXPANSION = 5;
private int capacity;
private int size;
private Object[] items;

Create Instance Of Class Used To Populate DefaultListModel When JList Item Selected

Jan 28, 2015

New to Java Swing. What I am trying to achieve here is to create an instance of the class used to populate the DefaultListModel when a JList item is selected. All examples I have seen show how to return the text displayed in the JList which really is of no practical use.

I have achieved what I want to achieve in that I am successfuly creating the selected object within my ListCellRenderer class.

For the purpose of testing I am using a call to the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog method to display the id of the selected object.

So, I launch the JFrame, the JList is populated, I select an item from the JList and the id value is displayed in the prompt. All this works fine except for one thing.

When I click OK on the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog prompt, the prompt disappears and reappears. The system seems to be in a loop. It is behaving as if the change or click event handler on the JList keeps firing.

This happens even without the creation of the object:

BookEntry be = (BookEntry)list.getModel().getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex());

I have scoured the code and object properties to see if I can figure out where this behaviour is coming from without success.

All there is in the JFrame design view is a single JList with a variable name of "list". Everything else is in code as below:

Here is the .java code. Its not that complex

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Component;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JList;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.ListCellRenderer;
import javax.swing.DefaultListModel;
 public class NewJFrame3 extends javax.swing.JFrame {

Creating / Using Object Class To Create Another Field In Another Class?

Jun 10, 2014

Design a class named Person and its two subclasses named Student and Employee. Make Faculty and Staff subclasses of Employee. There is also a MyDate class as explained below. A person has a name, address, phone number, and email address. A student has a status (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior). Define the status as an integer which can have the value 0 (for "Freshman"),

1 (for "Sophomore"),
2 (for "Junior"), and
3 (for "Senior"),

but don't allow the status to be set to any other values. An employee has an office, salary, and dateHired. The dateHired is a MyDate field, which contains the fields: year, month, and day. The MyDate class does not explicitly inherit from any class, and it should have a no-arg constructor that sets the year, month, and day to the current year, month, and day. The MyDate class should also have a three-argument constructor that gets three int arguments for the year, month and day to set the year, month and day.

A faculty member has office hours and a rank. Define the rank as a String (for values like "Professor" or "Instructor"). A staff member has a title, which is also a String. Use data types for the fields as specified, or where one is not specified, use a data type that is appropriate for the particular field. Write a test program called TestEveryone.java that creates a Person, Student, Employee, Faculty, and Staff object, and invoke their toString() method (you don't need to call the objects' toString() method explicitly).

Note: Your MyDate.java class is the object class that your dateHired field is created from in the Employee.java class.

Do not use the Person, Employee or Faculty classes defined on pages 383 and 384 of the book. Create new ones.Here is the code I have so far concerning the employee and MyDate.

public class Employee extends Person {
private String office;
private double salary;
//private MyDate dateHired;
//7 argument constructor for employee
public Employee(String name, String phoneNumber, String email, String address, String office, double salary /*MyDate dateHired*/) {
super(name, phoneNumber, email, address);
