#1201 — how to execute the code o

  To: comp.lang.java.gui
the paintComponenet method is the method we use to put the code that
does the drawing, but how do I execute this code.
How to let the code of the paintComponenet method be executed. ????
Thanks

When you have created a visible window (JFrame, or JApplet), you can
create a class which extends JComponent and overrides paintComponent.
Once you have done that, you can create an object of your new class,
and "add" it to the content pane of the window you created...

For more details, check out Suns excellent Swing Tutorial trail:
<http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/>

Hope this helps,
Daniel.

JApplet (quite inconsistently) has no paintComponent().
OTOH - I feel 'paint' should neve be overridden in
root level containers.  As soon as the paintComponent()
of a JFrame is customised, management realises they
actually want this as an applet, or in a floating
JOptionPane/JDialog.  If the custom painting is done
in a JPanel, OTOH, the component can be dropped into
whatever other container is needed.

If you noticed, my suggestion to Irantisi was to extend JComponent,
and add that to the JApplet or JFrame. This should work in both
situations.

Aaah..  now that I read your post more
carefully, I note that not only did you
mention that, but I *quoted* it.

My bad.
