Using JOptionPane for input and output
2
JOptionPane

• Resides in javax.swing package
• Used for showing different kind of dialog boxes

3
Displaying Messageboxes

• Following line of code displays a simple
  messagebox
• JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null,
• Message Title,
• Message text,
• JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE)

4
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, Message
Title, Message text, JOptionPane.PLAIN_ME
SSAGE)

• Argument 1 Parent Component
• Argument 2
• Argument 3

5
Argument 4

• JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE

6
Argument 4

• JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE

7
Argument 4

• JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE

8
Argument 4

• JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE

9
Argument 4

• JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE

10
Taking Input

• String s
• s JOptionPane.showInputDialog( Enter a
  number)

11

• Always returns a string
• Blocks for input
• Convert the String s to an integer by
• int i Integer.parseInt( s )

Lets get Object Oriented

• Introduction to classes

• class Name
• Name() // Constructor

14
Lets get Object Oriented

• Every class has a method named exactly same as
  the class, called Constructor
• If you dont define one, a default constructor is
  automatically created, for example for class
  named Name, default constructor looks like
• Name()

15
Lets get Object Oriented

• For every class, you can have multiple
  constructors with different arguments (but
  obviously the same name)
• class Name
• Name()
• Name(String s)

16
Class member functions

• class Name
• Name() // Constructor
• public void memberFunc(int x)
• // Body here

17
Copy Constructor

• class Name
• int a, b, c
• Name(final Name n)
• a n.a
• b n.b
• c n.c

18
Using Copy Constructor

• class Test
• public static void main(String a)
• Name n new Name()
• Name m new Name(n)

19
Member functions

• All member functions along with their bodies must
  be typed inside the class code.
• There is no concept of inline functions in java
• There is no concept of prototypes either

20
Method Overloading

• Member function overloading in Java is similar to
  that of C
• Declare two functions with same name but
  different arguments to make them overloaded

21
Method Overloading Example

• class Name
• public myMethod()
• public myMethod(String s)

22
Recursion

• Calling a function from within itself is called
  recursion
• Recursion is allowed in Java as it is in C

23
Recursion Example

• class Recursive
• public int function(int i)
• if(i1 i0)
• return 1
• else
• return i function(i-1)

24
Creating Packages

• package something
• class ABC
• Associates ABC in package something
• Put ABC.java file in a folder named something
• Compile normally

25
Creating sub-packages

• package something.anything
• class XYZ
• Associates XYZ in package something.anything
• Put XYZ.java file in a folder named anything
  placed inside another folder something
• Compile normally
