Message:
Can some spot the error..? Its about vectors somewhat!!
Posted by Avin Sinanan on January 26, 2002 at 3:08 AM
Hi there, Ok the peice of code I am about to show you is a bit long. But most of the cod eis very simple.The code is suppose to do the following
1)When you click the button on LHS JPanel a button is added to the RHS JPanl. If you click the buttons again more buttons are added.
Also you can drag the added buttons around. It should be noted that all button are added to the same position so you have to drag the butons to see the ones under it. 2)If you double click on a button properly the curser changes to a CROSSHAIR "+ " curser and the button turns dark blue. It should be noted that all the added buttons are stored in a vector. 3)When you add more that one buttons to the screen do the following. Double click on one of the buttons till the cursers changes to "+" then click once on another button. The curser changes back to normal. The problem is that the program is suppose to print the cordinates of the double clicked button and the button single clicked on. This is not happening. In line 128 of the code you will see the code that is suppsoe to print these cordinates.
I think the problem is that the code cannot detremine if buttons were "prepared" in line 222.
The whole idea of this program later on is to make the program such that when you double click on one button and signle click on another button a line appears and connects the two buttons. here is the code.. thanks in advance : code->
