  1. Chapter 3 Section 65 – Manipulating Data Using Methods – Java Applet

  2. Chapter Objectives • Implement an ActionListener to handle events • Add interface components to an applet • Use the init() and paint() methods to load the applet interface • Use the actionPerformed() method • Run and test an interactive applet

  3. Moving to the Web • Create a new Java Applet in NetBeans: • Right click on the bodymasscalculator package and select New > Java > Applet • Name the Applet BodyMassApplet

  4. Moving to the Web • The applet version of the Body Mass Index Calculator has four kinds of objects • Image, Labels, TextFields, and Buttons • Import three packages • Java.applet.* • Java.awt.* • Java.awt.event.* • Implement an ActionListener interface in the class header • Informs the program to respond to user-driven events

  5. Moving to the Web

  6. Moving to the Web • Every event class has one or more associated listener interfaces

  7. Adding Interface Components to an Applet • Label • Displays text in the applet window • TextField • Displays a text box for users to enter text • Buttons • Displays a command button for users to click

  8. Label and Textfield Declarations • Construct the components to be displayed in the applet

  9. The init() Method • Initializes the window color and graphic • Adds components to the applet window • Registers the Button’s ActionListener

  10. The actionPerformed() Method • When a click event occurs, the ActionListener’s actionPerformed() method is triggered • Input values are retrieved with getText() • Calculations are performed • Output is sent to a label with setText()

  11. The paint() Method • Draws the initialized image in the applet window

  12. Creating an HTML Host Document for an Interactive Applet • Compile the applet • NetBeans creates an HTML Host Document to execute the applet • Uses the <APPLET> tag to specify the bytecode file, and width and height of the window (NetBeans uses defaults for width and height) • Use the same sample data to test the applet

  13. Summary • Applet code is controlled by first defining Labels, TextFields and Buttons • Use the add method to place the items on in the web document • Create an actionPerformed method to be executed when a button is clicked

  14. Rest of Today • Complete a Java Applet for the body mass calculator • Full list of the code can be found on page 190 of the book • Once built copy the logo.gif file to the “build” folder, edit the HTML file to change the height to 500 and open the HTML file.
