将应用程序转换为MVC架构

Question

I'm practicing writing MVC applications. I have a Mastermind game, that I would like to rewrite as MVC app. I have divided my code to parts, but instead of working game I'm getting empty Frame and an error in "public void paint( Graphics g )". Error comes from calling this method in my view with null argument. But how to overcome this ? MVC was quite simple with swing but awt and it's paint methods are much more complicated.

Code of working app :

App divided to MVC :
Main :

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args){

        Model model = new Model();
        View view = new View("Mastermind", 400, 590, model);
        Controller controller = new Controller(model, view);

        view.setVisible(true);
    }
}

Controller :

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Controller implements MouseListener, ActionListener {

    private Model model;
    private View view;

    public Controller(Model m, View v){

        model = m;
        view = v;

        view.addWindowListener( new WindowAdapter(){
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
            System.exit(0);
        } });

        view.addMouseListener(this);

    }

    public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
        if(e.getSource() == view.checkAnswer){
            if(model.isRowFull){
                model.check();
            }
        }
    }

    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
        Point mouse = new Point();

        mouse = e.getPoint();
        if (model.isPlaying){
            if (mouse.x > 350) {
                int button = 1 + (int)((mouse.y - 32) / 50);
                if ((button >= 1) && (button <= 5)){
                    model.fillHole(button);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e){}
    public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e)  {}
}

View :

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class View extends Frame implements ActionListener {

    Model model;
    JButton checkAnswer;
    private JPanel button;
    static final int HIT_X[] = {270,290,310,290,310}, HIT_Y[] = {506,496,496,516,516};

    public View(String name, int w, int h, Model m){

        model = m;

        setTitle( name );
        setSize( w,h );
        setResizable( false );
        this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

        button = new JPanel();
        button.setSize( new Dimension(400, 100));
        button.setVisible(true);
        checkAnswer = new JButton("Check");
        checkAnswer.addActionListener(this);
        checkAnswer.setSize( new Dimension(200, 30));
        button.add( checkAnswer );
        this.add( button, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
        button.setVisible(true);

        for ( int i=0; i < model.SCORE; i++ ){
            for ( int j = 0; j < model.LINE; j++ ){

        model.paint(null);

Model:

        }
    }

        }
        else{

        this.X = x ;
        this.Y = y ;

    public void setColor( int c ){
        color = c;
    }
    public int getColor() {
        return color;
    }
}

Any clues on how to overcome this would be great. Have I divided my code improperly ?

Answer 1

This doesn't look right to me.

Model should not extend Frame. Frame is a View idea. Model should not have graphics, or painting, or anything besides the problem at hand inside it.

I wouldn't have View implement any of the Listener interfaces. That's the Controller's job. It's the Listener that handles all events and updates the Model to respond to the changes it receives from the View event.

View should be just Swing or AWT classes; no Listeners. Paint methods belong in View. Anything that's painted should be expressed in View.

Neither Model nor View should have references to each other or Controller; the Controller owns references to both Model and View. It's the omniscient one that knows the whole problem.

Model only knows about the problem you're solving.

View should be completely detachable. A good test is to be able to remove the Swing UI and write a purely text-driven View to replace it. If you can do it without affecting the other two, you've layered things properly.
