A Brief Overview of the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) Motivation. Typical Frame setup. BorderLayout, FlowLayout, GridLayout. Component class hierarchy User events Graphics contexts Handling mouse events CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit

CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit Motivation 1. A portable graphics model and window system (Unix, Microsoft Windows, Macintosh). 2. Support interaction in a general way (Mouse events, keyboard events). 3. Provide high-level building blocks (widgets like buttons and canvases in JDK1.0 and 1.1, and more complex interface components such as TreeView in JDK 1.2 -- in “Swing”). 4. Permit integration with browsers (Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer).. CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit

CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit Handling Mouse Events 1. Either define a class that implements one or both of the interfaces MouseListener or MouseMotionListener, or 2. Define a class that subclasses MouseAdapter (and, maybe which implements MouseMotionListener), or 3. Declare that your main class implements MouseListener and/or MouseMotionListener. Then, if you have implemented a new class for handling the mouse, then create an instance of it and call one or both of addMouseListener and/or addMouseMotionListener Otherwise call addMouseListener and/or addMouseMotionListener with this. CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit

Example: LineSegments with Movable Endpoints Let’s add interactivity to the LineSegmentCollection applet. The user can click on the endpoint of any segment. The user can drag the mouse and move the endpoint. Any intersections with other line segments are updated, too. (Note, this version leaves copies of some intersections until the other line is moved, too.) CSE 341 -- S. Tanimoto Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit

Handling Mouse Events (cont) class MyMouseHandler extends MouseAdapter implements MouseMotionListener { public void mousePressed (MouseEvent e) { for (Enumeration theEnum = theSegments.elements(); theEnum.hasMoreElements();) { selectedLS = (LineSegmentD)theEnum.nextElement(); selectedPoint = selectedLS.getHit(e.getX(), e.getY()); if (selectedPoint != null) break; selectedLS = null; } CSE 341 -- S.
