adding graphics to GUI

  #1  
Jan 5th, 2009
Hey, I am trying to make a program that has pictures on the GUI, but am having trouble making the picture show up.

Here is the code:
import  java.awt.*;
import  java.awt.event.*;
import  javax.swing.*;


/**
   Quick example showing images (specifically ImageIcons) on
   JButtons and JLabels

   @author Sharon Tuttle
   @version 11-04-08
*/

public class ImageIconEx1
{
    /**
       creates an ImageIconEx1Frame
       @param args not used here
    */

    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(
           new Runnable()
           {
                public void run()
                {
                    ImageIconEx1Frame mainFrame = new ImageIconEx1Frame();
                    mainFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
                    mainFrame.setVisible(true);
                }
           });
    }
}
/**
   A frame with a panel containing buttons and labels featuring
   image icons
*/

class ImageIconEx1Frame extends JFrame
{
    /**
       constructs an ImageIconEx1Frame instance
    */

    public ImageIconEx1Frame()
    {
        this.setTitle("ImageIcons on JButtons and JLabels");
        this.setSize(DEFAULT_WIDTH, DEFAULT_HEIGHT);

        // add ImageIconEx1 panel to frame

        ImageIconEx1Panel panel = new ImageIconEx1Panel();
        this.add(panel);
    }

    // data fields

    private final static int DEFAULT_WIDTH = 500;
    private final static int DEFAULT_HEIGHT = 400;
}

/**
   A panel containing buttons and labels featuring
   image icons
*/

class ImageIconEx1Panel extends JPanel
{
    /**
       constructs a ImageIconEx1 panel instance
    */

    public ImageIconEx1Panel()
    {
        ImageIcon myImageIcon = new ImageIcon("C:'\'Users'\'Kimberlie'\'Desktop'\'BlackJackGui'\'train.gif");

        JButton myImageButton = new JButton(myImageIcon);
        JLabel myImageLabel = new JLabel(myImageIcon);

        JButton myTextAndImageButton = new JButton("Button Text", myImageIcon);
        myTextAndImageButton.setFont(DISPLAY_FONT);

        // note: the third argument here is with regard to the LABEL's horizontal
        //    alignment, NOT the label's text;

        JLabel myTextAndImageLabel = new JLabel("Label Text", myImageIcon,
                                                SwingConstants.CENTER);
        myTextAndImageLabel.setFont(DISPLAY_FONT);

        this.add(myImageButton);
        this.add(myImageLabel);
        this.add(myTextAndImageButton);
        this.add(myTextAndImageLabel);

    } // end ImageIconEx1Panel constructor

    // data fields for ImageIconEx1Panel

    private final static Font DISPLAY_FONT = new Font(
                                            "Dialog", Font.PLAIN, 20);
}
