Exploring Simple Graphic Program Features in Java

This lecture discusses the key features of a simple graphic program using Java, including Gapp and Gcanvas components inherited from Java Foundation Classes. Learn about creating GUI windows, drawing on Gcanvas inside a JFrame, and utilizing graphics primitives for shapes. Dive into the main method, initComponents, and Paintcomponent functions to understand how to develop your first graphic program in Java effectively.

  1. Lecture 3 A First Graphic Program

  2. Features of a simple graphic program

  3. Gapp and Gcanvas are ours – Are New Developed. • Inherited from JFrame and panel which are part of the Java Foundation Classes - in particular they are part of the swing” GUI components. • when a Gapp object is created, a new GUI window appears on the screen. Features of a simple graphic program

  4. A Gcanvas/JPanel is simply something we can draw on, but it isn’t allowed to be on screen by itself, it must be part of a JFrame. So what we actually need is an instance of Gapp with an instance of Gcanvas “inside” it (Figure 23). Features of a simple graphic program

  5. Main() The main entry point for the system is in class Gapp. simple graphic program – Main()

  6. sets the window’s screen position and size • (lines 22,23), sets up some Java apparatus to allow the program to shut down cleanly. • (lines 27-31) and creates an instance of a Gcanvas (graphics canvas) . • line 25. This GCanvas object is “added” to the Gapp object and hence becomes part of that window. simple graphic program- initComponents()

  7. it is passed a Graphics object (“g”) - line 12. • drawLine() which is a member of the Graphics class. • The Graphics class is part of the standard Java class library and its member functions are termed “graphics primitives”. • There exist a whole range of methods for drawing and coloring in a variety of shapes (boxes, polygons, ovals etc.) • Take a look at the Java API documentation for full details. simple graphic program- Paintcomponent()

  8. simple graphic program- Paintcomponent() The drawLine() method takes 4 parameters, x1, y1, x2, y2 which represent the start and end points of the line you wish to draw.
