I am trying to write what should be a very simple project in java. I am trying to create 2 classes, where the main one executes a method in class 2 to create a new JFrame object. Then, the main class exicutes the method in class 2 to set 2 variable's values. Then, a string should be printed on the JFrame panel at the set x and y values. However, it's as if xPos and yPos were not changed, and the string is printed at 0,0.
This is the code:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args){
Class2 obj = new Class2();
obj.createJFrame();
obj.setVal(100, 200);
}
}
class Class2 extends JPanel{
private int xPos, yPos;
public void createJFrame(){
JFrame window = new JFrame();
Class2 obj2 = new Class2();
window.setVisible(true);
window.setSize(300, 300);
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Container c = window.getContentPane();
c.add(obj2);
}
public void setVal(int x, int y){
xPos = x;
yPos = y;
repaint();
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawString("This string should be at 100, 200", xPos, yPos);
}
}
As a side note, I don't think that my title is accurate, so it would be great if someone could help me by editing the title. I'm sorry if the title doesn't match the question, but I am new to java. Also, this program is modeling a more complex program, so if this method seems inefficient of indirect, it is because the more complex program will use a structure like this. Thank you in advance.
class Class2 extends JPanel{
private int xPos, yPos;
public void createJFrame(){
JFrame window = new JFrame();
// Class2 obj2 = new Class2();
window.setVisible(true);
window.setSize(300, 300);
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Container c = window.getContentPane();
c.add(this); // now the setValue will update the object
}
...
You weren't updating the object that was added to the JFrame. As an aside, I would create the JFrame in a static method or a different class and have Class2 as an argument. Something like:
class Class2 extends JPanel{
private int xPos, yPos;
public static void createJFrame(Class2 obj){
JFrame window = new JFrame();
window.setVisible(true);
window.setSize(300, 300);
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Container c = window.getContentPane();
c.add(obj);
}
public void setVal(int x, int y){
xPos = x;
yPos = y;
repaint();
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawString("This string should be at 100, 200", xPos, yPos);
}
}
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args){
Class2 obj = new Class2();
obj.setVal(100, 200);
Class2.createJFrame(obj);
}
}
