Confused about how to approach project using an abstract class - java

So I am doing a project where I am to create a 2d simulation of different "critters". These critters interact with each other on the GUI and will fight each other. My issue is that I am using a class called Simulation which is used to simulate the 2d environment. In this class I am using lines such as
if (c.getSpecies() == Species.ANT)
//do something
This given me an error telling me that the symbol Species or ANT cannot be found. I am pretty sure this is due to Simulation not having any inheritance from my main *GVcritter** class and Simulation should not have any inheritance. That being said, I am not quite sure how to approach doing this without using if statements like the one above.
Main GVcritter class:
import java.awt.*;

Species.ANT is not a top-level class. Since
it is an inner class of GVcritter, change
Species.ANT to GVcritter.Species.ANT.

How do I pass an object from another class into the paintComponent method?

My assignment is to create the game "FloodIt." You can play the game here if you need to understand it, but I don't think it's really necessary: http://unixpapa.com/floodit/
I have finished the actual game part of it, but now I need to make a graphical interface for it. I have three classes:
Board.java, which makes the board with random int values and contains several other methods to make the game work:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.util.Random;
/**The board class for the Flood-It game. This class implements a NxN board filled with numColors colors.
* The class implements several methods to allow the playing of the game.
*/
class Board {
//you will probably need to create some field variables
private int size;
private int numColors;
private int[][] board;
private int numOfMoves;
/**Constructs a new sizeXsize board filled where each element on the board is a random number between 0
* and numColors. Also initializes the number of moves to zero.
* #param size -- the size of the board
* #param numColors -- the number of possible entries on the board
*/
public Board(int size,int numColors) {
//TODO finish this constructor
this.size = size;
this.numColors = numColors;
numOfMoves = 0;
board = new int[size][size];
Random rand = new Random();
int randomNum = 0;
for (int count = 0; count < size; count++) {
for (int counter = 0; counter < size; counter++) {
randomNum = rand.nextInt(this.numColors);
board[count][counter] = randomNum;
}
}
}
/**Updates the board to fill (from the top left corner) with a specified color.
* Filling stops when any other color is hit besides the one in the top left corner.
* Play the game at http://www.lemoda.net/javascript/flood-it/ or http://unixpapa.com/floodit/?sz=14&nc=4
* to get a better understanding of what this method should do.
* You will probably also want to take a look at the algorithm described
* at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill which describes what this method should do.
* I recommend the Stack-based recursive implementation. It is a recursive algorithm for
* flooding the board. It is one of the easier ones to implement.
* You are free to have this method call other methods. I would recommend creating a private method that
* this method calls and have that private method be the recursive method.
* A recursive method is one that calls itself.
* #param color -- the new color to flood the board with.

FloodIt.java, which contains the JFrame lines in order to load the graphical interface, as well as code to actually run the game (it's not entirely finished, as I got stuck):
import java.util.Scanner;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
/**This class is the main method for the Flood-It game as found on many web sites
* ( such as http://www.lemoda.net/javascript/flood-it/ or

* and the number of colors. The user is prompted for the next color until the board is flooded.
* After the game is over it prints how many turns the user took and then asks if they want to play again.
*/
class FloodIt {
private static final int FRAMESIZE = 1000;
public static void main(String args[]) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setSize(FRAMESIZE,FRAMESIZE);
frame.setTitle("Brennan's Game");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
GraphicalBoard component = new GraphicalBoard();
frame.add(component);
frame.setVisible(true);
String again="";
int size = 20;
int numColors = 7;
do {
Board board=new Board(size,numColors);
while(!board.finished()) {
//I will change the print statements below into graphical input boxes later
System.out.print("****************\n"+board+"\n****************\n");
System.out.print("What color do you choose? ");
int color=Integer.parseInt(scan.nextLine());
board.move(color);
}
System.out.println("Nice job, you finished in "+board.numMoves());
System.out.print("Would you like to play again (Y/N)? ");
again=scan.nextLine();
} while (again.equalsIgnoreCase("Y"));
scan.close();
}
}
And GraphicalBoard.java, which is supposed to take the values of the 2d array from Board.java and display the board in a graphical interface. Each number that could be in the 2d array corresponds with a color in the Colors array:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.Rectangle;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
public class GraphicalBoard extends JComponent {
private int xSize = 50;
private int ySize = 50;
public void paintComponent(Graphics g, int size, Board board) {
String colors[] = {"BLUE","GREEN","YELLOW","RED","BLACK","ORANGE","PINK"};
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
int xCoord = 0;
int yCoord = 0;
int colorNum = 0;
String colorOfSquare = "";
for (int count = 0; count < size; count++) {
for (int counter = 0; counter < size; counter++) {
colorNum = board[count][counter];
colorOfSquare = colors[colorNum];
g2.setColor(Color.colorOfSquare);
Rectangle square = new Rectangle(xCoord,yCoord,xSize,ySize);
xCoord += 50;
}
yCoord += 50;
}
}
}
Two problems:
In GraphicalBoard.java, on the line "colorNum = board[count][counter];", I am getting the error: "The type of expression must be an array type but it resolved to Board."
I seem to be having a problem bring over the already initialized board from the Board.java class into the GraphicalBoard.java class.
In GraphicalBoard.java, on the line "g2.setColor(Color.colorOfSquare);", I am getting the error: "colorOfSquare cannot be resolved or it not a field."
I know the problem, it is supposed to be something like "g2.setColor(Color.BLACK);", but I am going to have the user input the color, so it kind of needs to be a variable and I was hoping to have something cleaner than just an if statement for every color.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Your Board class contains a member variable int[][] board, but its scope is private. When you call the following:
colorNum = board[count][counter];
This is wrong because the board variable here is an object of Board class. It itself is not the two day array, but it encapsulates int[][] board inside it. So you need to provide a getter method in Board to expose its board member variable like this:
public int[][] getBoard() {
return board;
}
Then in the paintComponent method you can access it as: board.getBoard()[count][counter].
You already seem to have a user inputted color in the colorOfSquare variable. But Graphics2D's setColor method would only accept a variable of type java.awt.Color. Since you have the String representation of the color, you can get its corresponding java.awt.Color value using reflection as mentioned here. The following should work for you:
Color color;
try {
Field field = Color.class.getField(colorOfSquare);
color = (Color) field.get(null);
} catch (Exception e) {
color = null; // Not defined
}
Two answers:
paintComponent ONLY receives a Graphics object. See this link for a short tutorial. If you need to access other objects in this method, make them variables of GraphicalBoard and pass them om during construction.
1.5 You need to access the Board's board, as this is what you are using. So add a getBoard(int i, int j) in class Board. Something like the following (I also added a getSize() method) :
public int getBoard(int i, int j) {
return board[i][j] ;
}
public int getSize() {
return size;
}
Your color colorOfSquare is already defined as a color. The error arises because the Color class doesn't have such a constant. You should just pass the color directly.
Try this:
public class GraphicalBoard extends JComponent {
private int xSize = 50;
private int ySize = 50;
private Board board;
private int size;
public GraphicalBoard() {
}
public void setBoard(Board board){
this.board = board;
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent();
if(board == null) {
throw new RuntimeException("Board not set") ;
}
String colors[] = {"BLUE","GREEN","YELLOW","RED","BLACK","ORANGE","PINK"};
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
int xCoord = 0;
int yCoord = 0;
int colorNum = 0;
int size = board.getSize() ;
String colorOfSquare = "";
for (int count = 0; count < size; count++) {
for (int counter = 0; counter < size; counter++) {
colorNum = board.getBoard(count, counter) ;
colorOfSquare = colors[colorNum];
g2.setColor(colorOfSquare);
Rectangle square = new Rectangle(xCoord,yCoord,xSize,ySize);
xCoord += 50;
}
yCoord += 50;
}
}
In very general terms,
your view, here the drawing JPanel, should contain a reference to the model object via a has-a or "composition" structure
The view should be notified of changes in the model, often via event listeners such as a PropertyChangeListener
The view then extracts the key information and uses that to help decide what to draw. So, if it has a reference to the current Board object, it can make getter method calls from within the paintComponent method.
Other issues in your code:
Make sure to call the super's paintComponent within your override, else you will not clean up "dirty" pixels
Don't mix linear code -- a Scanner based on System.in with GUI code. Make it all one or the other.
For example, in the code below, I use a model class, the class that holds the int[][] board variable and here called BoardModel, and I give it a SwingPropertyChangeSupport object.
class BoardModel {
// .....
private SwingPropertyChangeSupport support = new SwingPropertyChangeSupport(this);
This object will accept listeners, and will allow me to notify listeners of changes to the model.
public void addPropertyChangeListener(String propertyName, PropertyChangeListener listener) {
support.addPropertyChangeListener(propertyName, listener);
}
Then when the model changes, I notify all listeners by calling the support object's firePropertyChange(...) method:
public void selectSquare(int x, int y) {
int replacementValue = board[y][x];
int targetValue = board[0][0];
if (targetValue == replacementValue) {
return;
} else {
recursiveMove(0, 0, targetValue, replacementValue);
numOfMoves++;
support.firePropertyChange(BOARD, null, board); // ***** here
setWin(checkForWin());
}
}
Then in the control, I can add listeners that notify the view of changes:
model.addPropertyChangeListener(BoardModel.BOARD, new PropertyChangeListener() {
#Override
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
view.repaint();
String moveCount = "" + model.getNumOfMoves();
controlPanel.setMoveCountFieldText(moveCount);
}
});
model.addPropertyChangeListener(BoardModel.WIN, new PropertyChangeListener() {
#Override
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt) {
if ((boolean) evt.getNewValue()) {
String message = "Move count: " + model.getNumOfMoves();
String title = "Game Over";
int messageType = JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(view, message, title, messageType);
}
}
});

Having difficulties printing out my board in my Snake Game

I am not an expert on java and have run into an issue on my Snake Game. I have created a class called GameManager:
public class GameManager {
private GameObject board[][];
private int xR;
private int yR;
public Snake snk;
private Food food;
public GameManager (String fileName) {
BufferedReader fileInput = null;
try {
fileInput = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
Scanner fileScanner = new Scanner(fileInput);
int rows = fileScanner.nextInt();
int cols = fileScanner.nextInt();
board = new GameObject[rows][cols];
for (int row = 0; row < rows; row++) {
for (int col = 0; col < cols; col++) {
board[row][col] = new Empty();
}
}
while(fileScanner.hasNext()) {
fileScanner.nextLine();
int xStart = fileScanner.nextInt();
int yStart = fileScanner.nextInt();
int xEnd = fileScanner.nextInt();
int yEnd = fileScanner.nextInt();
addWall(xStart, yStart, xEnd, yEnd);
}
addGameObject(snk);
addGameObject(food);
fileScanner.close();
} catch(IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
if(fileInput != null) {fileInput.close();}
} catch(IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
public void newRandomXY() {
Random r = new Random(0);
this.xR = r.nextInt(board.length);
this.yR = r.nextInt(board.length);
}
public void addGameObject(GameObject s) {
newRandomXY();
while(board[xR][yR].isOccupied()) {
newRandomXY();
}
if(s instanceof Snake) {
s = new Snake(xR, yR);
board[xR][yR] = s;
} else if(s instanceof Food) {
s = new Food(xR, yR);
board[xR][yR] = s;
}
}
public void addWall(int xStart, int yStart, int xEnd, int yEnd) {
for(int x = xStart; x <= xEnd; x++) {
for(int y = yStart; y <= yEnd; y++) {
board[x][y] = new Wall();
}
}
}
#Override
public String toString() {
String ret = "";
for (int row = 0; row < board.length; row++) {
for (int col = 0; col < board[row].length; col++) {
ret += board[row][col].toString();
}
ret += "\n";
}
return ret;
}
}
Now the issue I'm having is that whenever I try to print a string version of this board on my cmd, the program just hangs and I have to hard close the cmd. I have been messing around with some of the code and I have been able to fix the program just crashing, but I haven't been able to figure why its all not printing out.
Here is my Snake Class (Note: I also have some other methods in this class that I am not using at the moment, so I don't think they are the issue):
public class Snake extends GameObject {
private Point head;
private Deque<Point> snakeBody;
private int lenght = 0;
private String direction = "UP";
public Snake(int x, int y) {
this.head = super.newCell(x, y);
this.snakeBody = new ArrayDeque<Point>();
this.snakeBody.push(head);
}
and my toString of Snake:
public String toString(Deque<Point> s) {
String str = "";
for(Point p : s) {
String snk = p.toString();
snk = "S";
str += snk;
}
return str;
}
Here's my Food Class:
public class Food extends GameObject {
private Point foodLoc;
public Food(int x, int y) {
this.foodLoc = new Point(x, y);
}
public Point getLocation() {
return foodLoc.getLocation();
}
public String toString() {
return "F";
}
}
and here is my GameObject Class:
import java.awt.Point;
public class GameObject {
public final int CELL_SIZE = 1;
public Point newCell(int x, int y) {
return new Point(x, y);
}
public boolean isOccupied() {
return true;
}
public boolean isOccupied(Point p, Point o) {
boolean flag = false;
if(p.getLocation().equals(o.getLocation())) {
flag = true;
} else {
flag = false;
}
return flag;
}
}
I have a good feeling that my toString method in Snake is completely wrong, but I don't necessarily understand how to fix it and why my other toString methods don't work. I have looked around the forums to see if I could find and answer, but I couldn't find anything for this.
The problem is that you're trying to print an array of type gameObject, but that object does not have a .toString operator, so it's always going to return null.
I'm guessing that you want to represent the cells as either empty or occupied, or perhaps even further by having food, but you'd need a .toString in that class to define what you want returned in whatever given scenario.

How to run SoundPool in Android Studio on actions

I am new to working in Android Studio and only average with java, thus far. I am working on an assignment for school, but I am having problems getting SoundPool to work without crashing the application. I know the app runs without the sound I have added, but I am uncertain where my error lies as there seems to be so many different ways to approach this problem.
The error I am getting in debug is:

I am not looking for someone to do my work for me, I just want to be able to understand where I have made mistakes and the proper approach to correct them so I can learn from this as intended. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
(1) You don't ever seem to call the method loadSound().
You don't instantiate the soundPool object, that is the error you are getting. You need to call the loadSound() method.
(2) Your not setting m_context to a value, do this:

Java, program does only repaint() in the end

I have to do an assignment at school, it's a car park simulator, calling run(); from the main gives a perfectly normal simulation where the carspots get repainted every step but when calling it from an actionListener it only paints the result and not the steps inbetween. There are 6 classes down below where the main is in the Simulator class, and SimulatorView has the repaint(); in it.
So could anyone explain to me why it simulates every step when run() is called from the main, and why it just paints the output when run() is called from an ActionListener behind a JButton?

When you call run() from the actionListener, it is being executed on the EventDispatchTread, blocking that thread until the run() method terminates. Only after that point can the EDT act on the repaint request.
"In general Swing is not thread safe. All Swing components and related classes, unless otherwise documented, must be accessed on the event dispatching thread." see here
So when an action is performed, actionListener pick up that event and execute run() in the event dispatching thread.
At step 0, when it comes to repaint(), it doesn't draw anything because "The component will be repainted after all of the currently pending events have been dispatched." see here
The repaint() is waiting for the release of ActionListener.actionPerformed.
So it comes to step 1, the same thing happens. Only at the end, after the action event is released, the repaint() will be execute once. So that's why only results are there not steps in between.
My suggestion is put the painting logic in the main thread instead of the actionListener.

Keybind action being run at start but not from actual key press

I'm coding a game for my final project in Java, our teacher provided us with a Board class that is a component that allows us to place and remove pegs on a virtual game board instead of having to code one ourselves. I'm trying to add Key Binding to the Board component but the action I want performed on key press is happening when I run the program but It won't run when I type a Key.
The board class already has a method for getting the position clicked on the component and I think this might be interfering with my Code but I'm not sure.
This is my game class where I tried to add keybinding

You're shooting yourself in the foot with that thread code -- you're calling run() not start() on it
SYNC_BOARD.run();
This will run on the Swing event thread and risks completely freezing your GUI.
As a general rule, you should almost never extend Thread but rather implement Runnable, but regardless, don't use that Thread code -- Instead use a Swing Timer since your code has no breaks in it, no Thread.sleeps and it will make your CPU awfully busy, and the Swing Timer will help make sure that your code obeys Swing threading rules.
Also your MoveAction is wrong. Most of that code should go in the actionPerformed method. The constructor should just set the direction field and that's it.
Something like:
#SuppressWarnings("serial")
public class MoveAction extends AbstractAction {
Direction direction;
public MoveAction(Direction direction) {
// this is the only code the constructor should have!
this.direction = direction;
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// use direction to help make move in here
}
}
Understand that this is likely causing some major problems, since the constructor is called on program creation (hence your key bindings "work" when the program starts), but it's the actionPerformed that actually gets called when the right key is pressed.
