Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition20 Methods Provided by the class JButton
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition21 Methods Provided by the class JButton
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition22 Handling an Event Action event: An event created when JButton is clicked. Event listener: An object that receives a message when JButton is clicked. In Java, you must register the listener.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition23 Handling an Event class ActionListener Handles action event. Part of package java.awt.Event. The class ActionListener is a special type of class (interface). Must contain the actionPerformed method.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition24 Rectangle Program: Sample Run
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition25 Programming Example: Temperature Conversion Input: Temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Output: Temperature in Celsius if input is Fahrenheit; temperature in Fahrenheit if input is Celsius.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition26 Programming Example: Temperature Conversion Solution: 1.Create the appropriate JLabels, JTextFields, JButtons. 2.Add them to the created content pane. 3.Calculate the appropriate conversions when the buttons are clicked and an event is triggered.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition27 Sample Run for TempConversion
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition28 Object-Oriented Design Simplified methodology: 1.Write down detailed description of problem. 2.Identify all (relevant) nouns and verbs. 3.From list of nouns, select objects. 4.Identify data components of each object. 5.From list of verbs, select operations.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition29 Object-Oriented Design: Example 1 Problem statement: Write a program to input the length and width of a rectangle, and calculate and print the perimeter and area of the rectangle. Nouns: Length, width, rectangle, perimeter, area.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition30 class Rectangle with Data Members and Operations
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition31 Object-Oriented Design: Example 2 A place to buy candy is from a candy machine. A new candy machine is bought for the gym, but it is not working properly. The candy machine has four dispensers to hold and release items sold by the candy machine and a cash register. The machine sells four products —candies, chips, gum, and cookies—each of which is stored in a separate dispenser. You have been asked to write a program for this candy machine so that it can be put into operation.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition32 Object-Oriented Design: Example 2 The program should do the following: Show the customer the different products sold by the candy machine. Let the customer make the selection. Show the customer the cost of the item selected. Accept money from the customer. Return change. Release the item, that is, make the sale.

Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition34 Object-Oriented Design: Example 2
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition35 Implementing Classes and Operations Algorithms are used to implement operations. Construct and implement your own methods. Classes Integer, Double, Character, Long, Float : Known as wrapper classes. Provided so that values of primitive data types can be treated as objects. Have limitations (cannot change value stored in objects).
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition36 The class Integer
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition37 The class Integer
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition38 The class Integer Integer num; num = new Integer(86)
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition39 The class Integer int x; Integer num; num = 25; This statement is equivalent to the statement: num = new Integer(25); The expression: num = 25; is referred to as autoboxing of the int type.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition40 The class Integer int x; Integer num; The statement: x = num; This statement is equivalent to the statement: x = num.intValue(); This statement is referred to as auto unboxing of the int type.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition41 The class Integer To compare the values of two Integer objects, you can use the method compareTo. If you want to compare the values of two Integer objects only for equality, then you can use the method equal.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition42 The class IntClass
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition43 The class IntClass
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition44 Lecture 5 Summary Every GUI contains a window. Various components are added to the content pane of a window. class Frame is used to create windows. JLabel is used to label GUI components and display information to user. JTextFiled is used for input/output. JButton generates action event. Action event is sent to action listener. Action listener must have method called actionPerformed.
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition45 Lecture 5 Summary A class is a collection of data members and methods associated with those members. Object-oriented design (OOD): Starts with a problem statement. Identifies required classes with nouns in problem statement. Identifies required methods with verbs in problem statement.
