Hey
I'm trying to write a program to make a simple Tic-Tac-Toe Program. I just started coding it, so this is my rough draft version, i haven't worked on lots of checks i know i need to do later. However I have a big problem I cant seem to figure out how to solve.
I have three types of classes but 11 in total (The actual Frame class which makes the panels, 9 panel classes which are each just a box in the TicTacToe, and a PanelObject class which has all the methods to do stuff)
--All the code for these will be provided below--
In each Panel class (ex panel0.java) i instanciate a new PanelObject so I can use the PanelObject's methods. For example: PanelObject xyz = new PanelObject(); (Then in the panel0.java class I can do: xyz.getPlayerTurn(); ) The problem with this is that everytime the program uses a different panel it makes a different PanelObject. I need to keep track of what player went so I need a way for just one PanelObject to be instanciated for all 9 panel classes. For example, when user1 clicks panel 1, i track that user1 picked, but then when user2 clicks panel2, panel2 makes a new object(doesn't use the same) so it displays the user1 stuff instead of user2.
Hope that makes sense..
Heres the code..
Frame class:
import javax.swing.*;
import BreezySwing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class TicTacToeFrame extends GBFrame
{
private JLabel header;
private GBPanel box0,box1,box2,box3,box4,box5,box6,box7,box8;
private Panel0 panel0;
private Panel1 panel1;
private Panel2 panel2;
private Panel3 panel3;
private Panel4 panel4;
private Panel5 panel5;
private Panel6 panel6;
private Panel7 panel7;
private Panel8 panel8;
public TicTacToeFrame()
{
header = addLabel("TicTacToe", 1,1,1,1);
panel0 = new Panel0();
panel1 = new Panel1();
panel2 = new Panel2();
panel3 = new Panel3();
panel4 = new Panel4();
panel5 = new Panel5();
panel6 = new Panel6();
panel7 = new Panel7();
panel8 = new Panel8();
box0 = addPanel(panel0, 2,1,1,1);
box1 = addPanel(panel1, 2,2,1,1);
box2 = addPanel(panel2, 2,3,1,1);
box3 = addPanel(panel3, 3,1,1,1);
box4 = addPanel(panel4, 3,2,1,1);
box5 = addPanel(panel5, 3,3,1,1);
box6 = addPanel(panel6, 4,1,1,1);
box7 = addPanel(panel7, 4,2,1,1);
box8 = addPanel(panel8, 4,3,1,1);
box0.setBackground(Color.gray);
box1.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
box2.setBackground(Color.gray);
box3.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
box4.setBackground(Color.gray);
box5.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
box6.setBackground(Color.gray);
box7.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
box8.setBackground(Color.gray);
public static void main(String [] args)
{
TicTacToeFrame GUI = new TicTacToeFrame();
GUI.setSize(500,500);
GUI.setVisible(true);
}
Heres code for ONE of the 9 panel classes I made:
import BreezySwing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Panel3 extends GBPanel
{
PanelObject xyz = new PanelObject();
public void mousePressed(int x, int y)
{
Graphics g = getGraphics();
xyz.addPick("3");
if(xyz.getPlayerTurn() == 1)
{
g.drawOval(10,10,10,10);
}
else
{
g.drawRect(10,10,10,10);
}
if (xyz.checkIfWon() == true)
{
g.drawString("Congratulations Player " + xyz.getPlayerTurn() + " Won", 10 , 10);
}
xyz.changePlayer();
}
}
Heres code for PanelObject
import javax.swing.*;
import BreezySwing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class PanelObject
{
private int player1=1, player2;
ArrayList player1Picks = new ArrayList();
ArrayList player2Picks = new ArrayList();
//return 1 if player 1 turn, else return 2 if player 2 turn
public int getPlayerTurn()
{
if(player1 == 1 )
return 1;
else
return 2;
}
//If player 1 turn over , change to player 2 turn
public void changePlayer()
{
if(getPlayerTurn() == 1)
{
this.player1= 0;
this.player2= 1;
}
else
{
this.player1=1;
this.player2=0;
}
}
public void addPick(String pick)
{
if(getPlayerTurn() == 1)
{
player1Picks.add(pick);
}
else
{
player2Picks.add(pick);
}
}
public boolean checkIfWon()
{
String[] picks = new String[9];
picks[0]="0";
picks[1]="1";
picks[2]="2";
picks[3]="3";
picks[4]="4";
picks[5]="5";
picks[6]="6";
picks[7]="7";
picks[8]="8";
int[] check = new int[9];
check[0]=0;
check[1]=0;
check[2]=0;
check[3]=0;
check[4]=0;
check[5]=0;
check[6]=0;
check[7]=0;
check[8]=0;
if(getPlayerTurn() == 1)
{
for(int i = 0; i < player1Picks.size() ; i ++)
{
for(int k=0; k< picks.length ; k++)
{
if(player1Picks.get(i).equals(picks[k]))
{
check[k]=1; // sort in order
}
}
}
if(check[0]==1 && check[1]==1 && check[2]==1 || check[0]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[8]==1 ||
check[0]==1 && check[3]==1 && check[6]==1 || check[1]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[7]==1 ||
check[2]==1 && check[5]==1 && check[8]==1 || check[2]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[6]==1 ||
check[3]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[5]==1 || check[6]==1 && check[7]==1 && check[8]==1)
{
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
else
{
for(int b = 0; b < player1Picks.size() ; b ++)
{
for(int c=0; c< picks.length ; c++)
{
if(player1Picks.get(b).equals(picks[c]))
{
check[c]=1;
}
}
}
if(check[0]==1 && check[1]==1 && check[2]==1 || check[0]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[8]==1 ||
check[0]==1 && check[3]==1 && check[6]==1 || check[1]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[7]==1 ||
check[2]==1 && check[5]==1 && check[8]==1 || check[2]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[6]==1 ||
check[3]==1 && check[4]==1 && check[5]==1 || check[6]==1 && check[7]==1 && check[8]==1)
{
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
}
}
Note that I use this BreezySwing thing which is similar to Swing so just ignore the different syntax between them.
