Java adding ImageIcon to JLabel
(3 answers)
Closed last year.
I am building a Chat Bot application that queries text files according to topic and returns a text (answer) and would also want to display images related to that topic e.x Cricket. I am able to query and get text properly but trying to show images that that stored in the same place where my text file is. I am using ImageIcon for this. Is there any way that I can produce text with one or more images?

My UI

Remove add(label), and replace frame.setContentPane(gui); with the below, for example:
frame.getContentPane().add(gui, BorderLayout.NORTH);
frame.getContentPane().add(label, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
You could also add the label in the gui (e.g., gui.add(panel)), and add only the panel to the frame.

Why won't main method print anything?

I've been trying to figure out what's wrong with my code. I have to build a GUI and there are no errors. The program builds successfully, but no GUI pops up. So in the main method, I commented out the GUI programming and added a simple System.out.println("hello"); but it does the same thing, i.e., it builds successfully, but does not print anything. Can someone please tell me what's wrong? Thanks!

package gui;

import java.awt.Event.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
public class GUI extends JFrame {
GridLayout g = new GridLayout(5, 2);
private JLabel baseIn = new JLabel("Base Input");
private JLabel heightIn = new JLabel("Height Input");
private JTextField base = new JTextField();

area.setText("Area of your triangle is: " + aOutput);
} catch (NumberFormatException n) {
System.out.println(n.getMessage());
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
/*JFrame frame = new JFrame();
GUI one = new GUI();
frame.getContentPane().add(one);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);*/
System.out.println("hello world");
}
}

First, going back to the basic code...
public class GUI extends JFrame {
//...
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
GUI one = new GUI();
frame.getContentPane().add(one);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
Will fail, because you can't add a window based component to a window. As a general rule of thumb, you should avoid overriding JFrame (and other top level containers) directly and favour something less complex, like JPanel
public class GUI extends JPanel {
//...
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.add(new GUI());
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
}
Next...
calc.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
The fact that you need to perform a cast in order to get the code to work is a clear sign that something else is wrong and this is likely to cause a runtime error and crash your program. Perhaps you should start by having a read of How to write a Action Listener and How to Use Buttons, Check Boxes, and Radio Buttons to get a better understanding of how the API works
This is further supported by making use of the #Override annotation, which should be used when ever you "think" you're implementing or overriding existing functionality...
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//...
}
This would then fail to compile, as you're not implementing any existing functionality. This functionality is described by the ActionListener interface which you are not implementing.
While you could implement this interface directly, I prefer to avoid doing so, as it exposes functionality that other classes shouldn't have access to and you run the risk of building a "god" method, which is never a good idea.
Instead, I prefer to make use of Java's Anonymous Classes, which provides a much better means for isolating functionality to single use case, for example...
calc.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
try {
double bInput = Integer.valueOf(base.getText());
double hInput = Integer.valueOf(height.getText());
double aOutput = 0.5 * bInput * hInput;
area.setText("Area of your triangle is: " + aOutput);
} catch (NumberFormatException n) {
System.out.println(n.getMessage());
}
}
});
Runnable Example
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
public class GUI extends JPanel {
GridLayout g = new GridLayout(5, 2);
private JLabel baseIn = new JLabel("Base Input");
private JLabel heightIn = new JLabel("Height Input");
private JTextField base = new JTextField();
private JTextField height = new JTextField();
private JTextField area = new JTextField();
private JButton calc = new JButton("Calculate Area");
public GUI() {
setLayout(g);
add(baseIn);
add(heightIn);
add(base);
add(height);
add(area);
add(calc);
area.setEditable(false);
calc.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
try {
double bInput = Integer.valueOf(base.getText());
double hInput = Integer.valueOf(height.getText());
double aOutput = 0.5 * bInput * hInput;
area.setText("Area of your triangle is: " + aOutput);
} catch (NumberFormatException n) {
System.out.println(n.getMessage());
}
}
});
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.add(new GUI());
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
}
Netbeans properties...
Now, if all that still fails to net you a result, you need to make sure that your GUI class is configured as the "Main class".
Start by right clicking the Netbeans project node and select "Properties" (it's at the bottom).
From the "Projects Properties", select "Run" from the "Build" options down the left side.
Make sure that your GUI class is marked as the "Main Class", use "Browse" to find it if it's not

Try this
calc.addActionListener(new OptionButtonHandler());
I added one optionButtonHandler class which implements ActionListener. I checked on my IDE and I was able to get the area of the triangle.
private class OptionButtonHandler implements ActionListener {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
try {
double bInput = Integer.valueOf(base.getText());
double hInput = Integer.valueOf(height.getText());
double aOutput = 0.5 * bInput * hInput;
area.setText("Area of your triangle is: " + aOutput);
} catch (NumberFormatException n) {
System.out.println(n.getMessage());
}
}
}
In your case, GUI is not an ActionListener, so that will fail.

Can you right click on the file with the main method in Netbeans, you should see the run option there, select it. This would allow you set your main method. After this, subsequent clicks on the Green play Button should work.
You do not need to cast your Frame class to an ActionListener. Instead, make it implement the ActionListener interface and your code for the button action should work. But in future, its better to add logic to detect what component triggered the action.

I don't know, but how can you write this :
calc.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
Your object (this) is a JFrame, you should add 'implements ActionListener' first, or create a separate implementation ...
Next error, you do :
GUI one = new GUI();
frame.getContentPane().add(one);
GUI extends JFrame, its a JFrame, you can't add a JFrame in another one !
I tested with add of 'implements ActionListener' and it runs, but some errors remains ;)
Copy/paste needs wisdom, hum ^^
EDIT
this code is not perfect (and very ugly) but it works for your example :

When using JPanels in java how can you display user input data in one class to another

I've been having some difficulty with this. Basically I want a user to enter a name in one Java class and have that data displayed in another. I try using gets but I keep getting 'null'. Also how would you do this if I wanted to get an int from my class (exampl) to display in my second class. Would it basically be the same?
Here's an example to show what I mean
1st class
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Exampl extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
JLabel intro = new JLabel("Welcome What is your name?");
JTextField answer = new JTextField(10);
JButton button = new JButton("Enter");
final int WIDTH = 330;
final int HEIGHT = 330;
JLabel greeting = new JLabel("");
JButton next =new JButton("Next");
String name = answer.getText();
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Exampl() {
super("Welcome");
setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
setLayout(new FlowLayout());
add(intro);
add(answer);
add(button);
add(greeting);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
button.addActionListener(this);
setVisible(true);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
Object source = event.getSource();
if (source == button) {
String greet = "Hello there" + name;
greeting.setText(greet);
add(next);
next.addActionListener(this);
if(source==next)
dispose();
new Hello();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Exampl frame= new Exampl();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
2nd class
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Hello extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
String name;
JLabel hi = new JLabel("Nice to see you "+name);
JButton button = new JButton("Enter");
final int WIDTH = 330;
final int HEIGHT = 330;
JLabel greeting = new JLabel("");
JButton next =new JButton("Next");
public Hello() {
super("Welcome");
setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
setLayout(new FlowLayout());
add(hi);
add(button);
add(greeting);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
button.addActionListener(this);
setVisible(true);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
Object source = event.getSource();
if (source == button) {
String greet = "example " + name;
greeting.setText(greet);
add(next);
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Exampl frame= new Exampl();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}

My recommendations for you:
Don't extend JFrame, instead extend JPanel. See: Extends Frame vs creating it inside the program and Why shouldn't you extend JFrame and other components
Don't use multiple JFrames. See The use of multiple JFrames, good / bad practice? (BAD) instead you might want to try using Card Layout or JDialogs
What do you mean by extend? do you mean "public class Hello extends Exampl"? I'm new to java so I don't know much.
From that comment on another answer, you might want to learn the basics first in console applications before going into a GUI application which adds more complexity to your programs and thus your learning.
I'm planning on doing a project where I add the inputted name and a random int into a file so I can store it. Or would it make more sense to add that code into the same class?
From that comment, you can create a public method which returns the value in a JTextField in the format you need, then call that method from the other class, for example:
public String getUserName() {
return userNameField.getText();
}
public int getDigit() {
try {
return Integer.parseInt(digitField.getText());
} catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {
nfe.printStackTrace();
}
return -1; //In case it's not a number, or return 0, or whatever you need
}
//------In another class------//
int digit = object1.getDigit(); //Where object1 is an instance of the other class where those methods are defined

Make a getter in first class and extends second one class then use super.getter();

how to open a second jframe from a current one?

my current program takes in text from some JTextFields and adds it to a file to keep track of medications. What i want to do, is add another button to the bottom of the program that will open a second jframe to display the medications that are already documented, but all attempts have been brutally unsuccessful. Below is the code that i am currently working with.
Much Thanks.

You would probably want to use a JDialog instead of another JFrame. You just set it up the same way you set up any other JFrame or JDialog. You create the frame/dialog, add components and then call pack() then setvisible(true). You just want to make sure that you don't set JFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation() to close when the close your second JFrame.
I find it easier to set up my classes to sub-class JPanel instead of JFrame so then it is easier to reuse it in other places.

change jlabel with method

I am writing a small program that converts files, and I wanted to have a box pop up that asks the user to please wait while the program loops through and converts all the relevant files, but I am running into a small problem. The box that pops up should have a JLabel and a JButton, while the user is "waiting" I wanted to display a message that says please wait, and a disabled "OK" JButton, and then when its finished I wanted to set the text of the JLabel to let them know that It successfully converted their files, and give them a count of how many files were converted. (I wrote a method called alert that sets the text of the label and enables the button.) The problem is That while the program is running, the box is empty, the Label and the Button are not visible, when it finishes, label appears with the final text that I want and the button appears enabled. I am not sure exactly what is going on, I tried changing the modifiers of the JLabel and JButton several times but I cant seem to get it to work correctly. Here is the code for the box that pops up, any help is greatly appricated.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class PleaseWait extends javax.swing.JFrame{
private static final int height = 125;
private static final int width = 350;
final static JLabel converting = new JLabel("Please Wait while I convert your files");
private static JButton OK = new JButton("OK");
public PleaseWait(){
// creates the main window //
JFrame mainWindow = new JFrame();
mainWindow.setTitle("Chill For A Sec");
mainWindow.setSize(width, height);
mainWindow.setDefaultCloseOperation(DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
// creates the layouts//
JPanel mainLayout = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
JPanel textLayout = new JPanel(new FlowLayout());
JPanel buttonLayout = new JPanel(new FlowLayout());
// Sets Text //
converting.setText("Please wait while I convert your files");
// disables button //
OK.setEnabled(false);
// adds to the layouts //
textLayout.add(converting);
buttonLayout.add(OK);
mainLayout.add(textLayout, BorderLayout.CENTER);
mainLayout.add(buttonLayout, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
// adds to the frame //
mainWindow.add(mainLayout);
// sets everything visible //
mainWindow.setVisible(true);
}
public static void alert(){
OK.setEnabled(true);
String total = String.valueOf(Convert.result());
converting.setText("Sucsess! " + total + " files Converted");
}
}

Okay here's the issue. You are extending the JFrame . That means your class IS a JFrame.
When you create the PleaseWait frame you don't do anything to it. This is the empty box you are seeing. You are instead creating a different JFrame in your constructor. Remove your mainWindow and instead just use this. Now all of your components will be added to your PleaseWait object. That should fix your blank box issue.

You need an application to create your frame first. This is a simple example of such application.
import javax.swing.UIManager;
import java.awt.*;
public class Application {
boolean packFrame = false;
//Construct the application
public Application() {
PleaseWait frame = new PleaseWait();
//Validate frames that have preset sizes
//Pack frames that have useful preferred size info, e.g. from their layout
if (packFrame) {
frame.pack();
}
else {
frame.validate();
}
//Center the window
Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
Dimension frameSize = frame.getSize();
if (frameSize.height > screenSize.height) {
frameSize.height = screenSize.height;
}
if (frameSize.width > screenSize.width) {
frameSize.width = screenSize.width;
}
frame.setLocation((screenSize.width - frameSize.width) / 2, (screenSize.height - frameSize.height) / 2);
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.convert();
}
//Main method
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
}
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
new Application();
}
}
You have to slightly modify your frame to add controls to the content pane. You can do some work after frame is created, then call alert.
