when i run the app the gui didn't appear but it said build successfull. i have the setVisible(true) but the gui never appear.help please i must miss something in the code or wrong using.

Maybe when you press the start button in netbeans it try to run another class... In your class gui try to right click -> Run As -> Java Application.
Otherwise Right Click on Project -> Run -> Main Class -> Browse.. and select anagramword.gui

How can I display a java frame using an itemListener? [duplicate]

I am trying to do a simple Jform and call it from another class.
I want to use this Jframe in a server client application, but I don't know how to open the JFrame class from another class.
Like user has to chose
1- to open Jframe.
2- To Exit.
So What am I doing wrong?
Below are the codes:
Jframe Class named Calculas.java

Test Class named Test.java
public class Test extends JFrame {
public static void main(String args[])
{
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.Calculus();
}
}
Forgive me if this is naive, as Im not anything of a Java programmer...
But isnt it just because you need to set visible?
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.setVisible(true);
The constructor of Calculas doesn't show (setVisible) the frame.
If you want to interact with the Calculas class in this manner, you should also be calling CAL.setVisible(true)
Also, by convention, all Java instance variables, should start with a lower case character and use camelCase conventions
In it's current form of your code, you can call the main method of your Calculas class in Test class or move the code to the Test class.
Warning: Extending JFrame is not a good Idea.
First alternative: You don't need to extend JFrame in Test
public class Test{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Calculas.main(new String[0]);
}
}
You haven't mentioned in your question how you want to be able to chose close or open, in console or in another JFrame or something...
Second Alternative:
But If I were you I could do something like this: wrap the code for look and feel in a separate method and call this from Test' s main.

Here's an example of a basic structure you can use:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class MyGui {
private JFrame window = new JFrame("This is the title");
public MyGui() {
initComponents();
window.setBounds(100, 50, 600, 400); //location, size
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
window.setVisible(true);
}
public void initComponents() {
Container cp = window.getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new FlowLayout() );
cp.add(new JLabel("Hello world") );
}
}
public class MyProg {
private static void createAndShowGUI() {
new MyGui();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Schedule a job for the event dispatch thread:
//creating and showing this application's GUI.
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
And in separate files:
MyGui.java
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyGui {
private JFrame window = new JFrame("This is the title");
public MyGui() {
initComponents();
window.setBounds(100, 50, 600, 400); //location, size
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
window.setVisible(true);
}
public void initComponents() {
Container cp = window.getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new FlowLayout() );
cp.add(new JLabel("Hello world") );
}
}
MyProg.java
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyProg {
private static void createAndShowGUI() {
new MyGui();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Schedule a job for the event dispatch thread:
//creating and showing this application's GUI.
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.Calculus();
maybe, CAL.Calculas(); I dont know java but I realized that, sorry about my english:)

Should I use substring to avoid a certain string in java database or is there another way to bypass it?

I am building a product database and when I'm using the update database function my program crashes.
The issue is one string the program itself throws in.
I retrieve the data from the database text file and because I'm using numberformat.getCurrencyInstance and it throws in a dollar sign. So I threw in an exception String price = updatePriceTextField.getText().substring(1); so it would bypass the dollar sign in the beginning of the text field and send the information back to the textfile and save.
Now it brought up my current problem which is: when I enter a number bigger than 999 and I get to thousands, it brings in a comma: example: $3000.00 is now $3,000.00 and when i try to send that information back to the database it throws in an error and crashes.
Now I know I could just simply add in another substring to avoid, and solve the problem like that, but what if the price of the object lets say is: $300000000.00 the the program throws in 2 commas $300,000,000.00 and would crash again. So what sort of exception or command should I throw in to bypass these commas except substring.
Sorry for the long post, but I tried to explain the issue as well as I could.

Use a JFormattedTextField instead, this way you just use getValue and it will return you the unformatted value for the field.

Adding element in Java Netbeans generated combo box

I'm having some problem in adding new elements to the combo box. The code is created by Netbeans Form Editor, because of this I only have access to modify the event listeners. The elements cant be predefined because the elements are in a database and constantly expanding. Currently the combo box has only one element and i would like it to update according to the values from the database. Thank you for your time folks.

You have to add the ítem in the model:
DefaultComboBoxModel model = (DefaultComboBoxModel) jComboBox1.getModel();
model.addElement("new ítem");
Can be done by going to properties of the combo box then to >> model. As the answer provided here https://stackoverflow.com/a/39689417/5737654

Linebreak in text inputted through GUI

I'm trying to build a program that, through a GUI, receives input text with linebreaks, splits it at lines, then at spaces, and for each string does something "special". The problems are 2:
I can't get linebreaks into the input field;
I don't know how to get the linebreaks into the output.
How do I do that? My code is:

One problem persists: even with System.lineSeparator(), the linebreaks in the output just won't appear. How do I solve that? And how do I avoid having javax.swing every time?
This is an example of how to read the text of a text area to a string.
public class GetterText extends JFrame {
JTextArea ta = new JTextArea();
String taText;
GetterText() {
JButton getText = new JButton("GetText");
getText.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
taText = ta.getText();
System.out.println(taText);
}
});
getContentPane().add(getText, BorderLayout.LINE_START);
getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(ta));
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
pack();
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new GetterText();
}
}
You can use taText.split(" ") to split around spaces and taText.split("\\n") to split around lines.

How To Call JFrame from another Java class

I am trying to do a simple Jform and call it from another class.
I want to use this Jframe in a server client application, but I don't know how to open the JFrame class from another class.

1- to open Jframe.
2- To Exit.

Test Class named Test.java
public class Test extends JFrame {
public static void main(String args[])
{
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.Calculus();
}
}
Forgive me if this is naive, as Im not anything of a Java programmer...
But isnt it just because you need to set visible?
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.setVisible(true);
The constructor of Calculas doesn't show (setVisible) the frame.
If you want to interact with the Calculas class in this manner, you should also be calling CAL.setVisible(true)
Also, by convention, all Java instance variables, should start with a lower case character and use camelCase conventions
In it's current form of your code, you can call the main method of your Calculas class in Test class or move the code to the Test class.
Warning: Extending JFrame is not a good Idea.
First alternative: You don't need to extend JFrame in Test
public class Test{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Calculas.main(new String[0]);
}
}
You haven't mentioned in your question how you want to be able to chose close or open, in console or in another JFrame or something...
Second Alternative:
But If I were you I could do something like this: wrap the code for look and feel in a separate method and call this from Test' s main.

And test class like this:
public class Test{
public static void main(String args[])
{

//</editor-fold>

/* Create and display the form */
java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

Like this:
Here's an example of a basic structure you can use:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class MyGui {
private JFrame window = new JFrame("This is the title");
public MyGui() {
initComponents();
window.setBounds(100, 50, 600, 400); //location, size
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
window.setVisible(true);
}
public void initComponents() {
Container cp = window.getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new FlowLayout() );
cp.add(new JLabel("Hello world") );
}
}
public class MyProg {
private static void createAndShowGUI() {
new MyGui();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Schedule a job for the event dispatch thread:
//creating and showing this application's GUI.
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
And in separate files:
MyGui.java
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyGui {
private JFrame window = new JFrame("This is the title");
public MyGui() {
initComponents();
window.setBounds(100, 50, 600, 400); //location, size
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
window.setVisible(true);
}
public void initComponents() {
Container cp = window.getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new FlowLayout() );
cp.add(new JLabel("Hello world") );
}
}
MyProg.java
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyProg {
private static void createAndShowGUI() {
new MyGui();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Schedule a job for the event dispatch thread:
//creating and showing this application's GUI.
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
Calculas CAL = new Calculas();
CAL.Calculus();
maybe, CAL.Calculas(); I dont know java but I realized that, sorry about my english:)
