(12 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have a class Hangman and one class GUI. Hangman class for the process. So, I want to passing the value String form Hangman class to jLabel in GUI. When I run the project and I am strungling in java.lang.NullPointerException even I wrote the right code. When user click start. The value from class Hangman will show to the jLabel
Hangman class
package hangman;

public class Hangman {
String filename = "words.txt";
String[] wordList;
String[] wordBanks = {"DISAVOW","KEYHOLE","QUIZZES",

"WHIZZING","JOCKEY","MICROWAVE"};
String[] answer;
int index;
String[] resultarray;
StringBuilder stringbuilder = new StringBuilder();
String resultstring;
public Hangman()
{
initialComponent();
}
public void initialComponent()
{
index = randomIndex();
answer = wordBanks[index].split("");
resultarray = new String[answer.length];
for(int i = 0; i < answer.length ;i++)
{
resultarray[i] = " _ ";
stringbuilder.append(resultarray[i]);
}
resultstring = stringbuilder.toString();
}
public int randomIndex()
{
int rand = 0;
// define the range
int max = 10;
int min = 0;
int range = max - min;
// generate random numbers within 1 to 10
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
rand = (int)(Math.random() * range) + min;
// Output is different everytime this code is executed
//System.out.println(rand);
}
return rand;
}
public void printWord()
{
System.out.println(wordBanks[randomIndex()].toString() + "|" + wordBanks[randomIndex()].length());
}
public void initialWord()
{
int random = randomIndex();
//answer = new String[random];
answer = wordBanks[random].split("");
for (int i = 0; i < answer.length;i++)
System.out.println(answer[i]);

The message error when I run the application.
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException
at hangman.GUI.jButtonStartActionPerformed(GUI.java:400)
at hangman.GUI.access$000(GUI.java:12)
at hangman.GUI$1.actionPerformed(GUI.java:96)
It seems that in the GUI class you declare a member variable, Hangman hangman, but you never initialize it. Therefore, the code jLabelGuess.setText(hangman.resultstring); and similar calls will result in a null pointer exception.
In the GUI class, you just only declare Hangman hangman, which mean the class Hangman has never been called to execute or initialized any value. Therefore, hangman.resultstring is null when you called jLabelGuess.setText(hangman.resultstring), since resultstring value is get from Hangman class; and cause Null Pointer Exception error at jLabelGuess.setText() and the function jButtonStartActionPerformed()
You might fix it if you initialize the Hangman class: Hangman hangman = new Hangman(); Or calling the function that initializes the value of resultstring which is hangman.initialComponent()
my question is very simple but I but i don't know what it is
I have a program, in java, like so
and I want to add on the JTextArea's a short message that disappeares when clicked or selected, like when you login on facebook
The JTextArea i want is for example the one below the "Startind Date:" the JTextArea is called textAreaStartindDate
this is my code so far. i used the netbeans built in design option

without using the obvious
In general you can use an ActionListener or a MouseListener.
For you did not post any code, we cannot help you out exactly. But maybe this post helps:
Onclick for TextField
Add a default text when initializing the JTextArea. Then add a FocusListener. like below:
textAreaDescription = new javax.swing.JTextArea("Description");
//jScrollPane1.setViewportView(textAreaDescription);
textAreaDescription.addFocusListener(new FocusListener() {
public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
textAreaDescription.setText("");
}
public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
textAreaDescription.setText("Description");
}
});
this is my Applet so far, i canĀ“t figure out how to open a new window (JFrame), when i click on "Register" JButton, i want to open a new window "Register Form Window" is to register all users (User Name, User Password, Age, etc).

You have to create another window. So if you create another JFrame class call Register you would add this in your code.
private void jButton3ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
Register menu = new Register();
menu.setVisible(true);
}

I have been running a JFrame in NetBeans to test it and all of a sudden the output changed from a display of the JFrame to:
Java Result: -1073740940
I do not know what caused this as I did not change anything in the run method and it is effecting all of my JFrame programs. Does anybody have any idea what is causing this? Is it a glitch in the program or did I accidentally toggled a setting NetBeans has that I'm not aware of?
UPDATE:
Here is the code to the program as requested by someone, but as I stated before it affects multiple projects that use a JFrame

You may have toggled a setting. If you select your project, and choose Properties in the pop-up menu and then select the category run. There are a couple of properties that would mess things up. The main class could be changed to a class other than your JFrame class. Setting the platform to a JDK version you don't have installed or have a broken installation for etc.
Probably the best way to debug would be to select the project and choose Debug -> Step Into or press F7 from them menu. This will start your program but immediately pause it so you can step through it one line at a time by pressing F7 (Step Into) or F8 (Step Over) for each line. If it starts stepping into the wrong class you will no you need to fix the main class property. If it starts ok but exits early you will want to look carefully at the last line before it exits.
I want to add checkboxes to a jpanel, which is on a jFrame. The UI was made on netbeans and i have copied the code to work on its functionality on eclipse.
I cant get my checkboxes come over the Jpanel.

the UI Looks like this
The checkboxes needs to be created dynamically according to what is selected on jComboBox2.
Your jPanel1 JPanel is being constrained by its layout, GroupLayout, which does not take kindly to the addition of new components without significant additions to code that are difficult to make, since GroupLayout was not built to be used for hand coding but rather for GUI-builder coding. I suggest that you build your GUI with much more coder-friendly layouts, or better still, combinations of nested JPanels each using a simpler layout, ones that are much more conducive to the addition of new components, and then your problems will be more easily solved.
You could even still use GroupLayout for the main of your GUI if you desire, but just not for jPanel1. I suggest that you consider using GridLayout or GridBagLayout to add a grid of JCheckBoxes. Or even FlowLayout. For example the following code uses the default JPanel's FlowLayout:
