如何在applet外部paint（）方法中进行打印

Question

I've been trying to print using the drawString() function of Graphics class in a method other than paint() . I've tried this program which was the solution to an earlier doubt, but this code is not working. Please find me the flaws. Thanks. Here's it below:

import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;

public class PaintIssue extends Applet {

    Graphics gg; //global Graphics object

    @Override
    public void init() {}

    @Override
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        g.drawString("Output of paint method",20,20);
        myMethod(); //calling myMethod
    }

    public static void myMethod() {
        gg.drawString("Output of myMethod",20,40);
    }
}

Answer 1

AWT doesn't have a concept of a "global graphics object". You have to pass down the Graphics object that your paint method receives.

    @Override
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        g.drawString("Output of paint method",20,20);
        myMethod(g); //calling myMethod
    }

    public static void myMethod(Graphics g) {
        g.drawString("Output of myMethod",20,40);
    }
