Using Jframe and JTable :)

Hiii All :D

How are you doing ? i'm such a beginner in Java ! however , i made this code

i don't know how much professional is it but , I need to use Jfream when I deal with user and Jframe to print wherever I'm using JTable ! and yah i know Jfram needs 2D Aarrays and i made them :)

here is the code ::

public class District { // class

    private String DistrictName; // variable with type string for the districtName
    private Region[] regions; // because each district is divided to Regions
    // an array of regions is here :)

    public District() { // zero argument constructor
        this.DistrictName = null;
    }

    public District(String name, Region[] regions) { // constructor wih TWO argument as needed when i creat the functions :)
        this.DistrictName = name;
        this.regions = regions;
    }

    public District(String name) { // constructore with One argument
        this.DistrictName = name;
    }
// set the districtname
    public void setDistrictName(String districtName) {
        this.DistrictName = districtName;
    }
// get the districtname
    public String getDistrictName() {
        return DistrictName;
    }
// get an Array , the array of regions "POINTER TO THE ARRAY !"
    public Region[] getRegions() {
        return regions;
    }
}

public class Region {
// Variables

    private String RegionName;
    private String district;
    private SchoolGroup[] schools; // bcoz each Region has many schools , an array of schools is here :)

    public Region() {// zero argument constructor
    }

    public Region(String s, SchoolGroup[] school) {// constructor with 2 arguments
        this.RegionName = s;
        this.schools = school;

    }

    Region(String RegionName) { // constructor with ONE argument
        this.RegionName = RegionName;
    }
//set the distric

    public void setDistrict(String district) {
        this.district = district;
    }
// set the region name

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.RegionName = name;
    }
// get the region

    public String getRegionName() {
        return RegionName;
    }
// get POINTER to the schools array 

    public SchoolGroup[] getSchoolGroup() {
        return schools;

you can find the dealing with the user in " for example "

public static District getUserDistrict() {
        boolean x = true;
        int answer = 0;
        try {

            for (int i = 0; i < DistrictList.length; i++) {
                System.out.println((i + 1) + "- " + DistrictList[i].getDistrictName());
            }
            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
            System.out.println("Choose a district: ");
            answer = input.nextInt();

            x = false;
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            System.err.println(" Invalid input , plz choose one of the numbers in list above");
        }
        return DistrictList[answer - 1];
    }

// function print the Regions and let the user choose

    public static Region getUserRegion() {
        //boolean x = true ;
        int answer = 0;
        try {
            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
            for (int i = 0; i < regions.length; i++) {
                System.out.println((i + 1) + "- " + regions[i].getRegionName());
            }
            System.out.println("Choose Region : ");
            answer = input.nextInt();


            //x = false ;
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            System.err.print("" + e + " , invalide input , "
                    + "plz input of othe list number above ");
        }
        return regions[answer - 1];
    }

and 2D array in :: " for example "

public static void NumberOfOneTypeOfSchoolsInOneRgion() {
        District district =getUserDistrict();

        Region regions = getUserRegion();


        SchoolGroup[] sg = regions.getSchoolGroup();
        // making 2D array
        String[][] toprint = new String[2][4];
        toprint[0][0] = regions.getRegionName();
        toprint[0][1] = "Primary School";
        toprint[0][2] = "Middle School";
        toprint[0][3] = "High School";
        toprint[1][0] = "# of schools";
        toprint[1][1] = Integer.toString(sg[0].getNumOfSchools());
        toprint[1][2] = Integer.toString(sg[1].getNumOfSchools());
        toprint[1][3] = Integer.toString(sg[2].getNumOfSchools());

         PrintToprintArray(toprint, 2, 4);
        /*
         
         */
//        for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
//            for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++) {
//                System.out.print(toprint[i][j] + "           |    ");
//            }
//            System.out.println();
//
//        }
    }

Now , My specific Q is :: how can ask the user and take her/his answer in Jframe , and print the 2D array in JTable form ?

thanks alot :')

Best Regards ,

java

To ask the user a question and wait for the answer you would not normally use a JFrame, the class JOptionPane is the normal way to do GUI dialog boxes to ask questions. Details are in the API doc in the usual places.
You will find instructions for using JTable in the Sun/Oracle tutorials here
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html#simple
because your already have you info in a String[][] you can use the simplest form of JTable. Just create an array of column names and then
JTable table = new JTable(toprint, columnNames);
Add the JTable to your JFrame and that's it.

The InputDialog looks OK to me. Do you get the dialog appearing?
Try printing answer immediately after calling it (after line 12)

I copied your exact code as follows

int answer  =Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Choose the number of the region" ));
      System.out.println(answer);

and it shows the dialog, then prints whatever integer value I enter into it.

Sorry :( it still doesn't work !
no dialog , and the function stop it works

Put a print immediately before it to check its being executed. Change the catch to catch all Exception rather than just NumberFormatException. It really should work!

Mmmmmm ok let's try it?

I used the JOptionPane from the swing in this function but it doesn't work :(

I wrote it like this :

public static Region getUserRegion() {
        //boolean x = true ;
        int answer = 0;
        try {
            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
            for (int i = 0; i < regions.length; i++) {
                System.out.println((i + 1) + "- " + regions[i].getRegionName());
            }
//            System.out.println("Choose Region : ");
//            answer = input.nextInt();
            answer  =Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Choose the number of the region" ));

            //x = false ;
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            System.err.print("" + e + " , invalide input , "
                    + "plz input of othe list number above ");
        }
        return regions[answer - 1];
    }

no window , and when I input number it stop working , it doesn't complete it works ( the method I mean " !

and about the Jtable .. I know how to use it when I've exact value to put in the Table
but in this program , I have to deal with the user and take some info from her/him

would u plz pick any of the functions above and show me how to use it ?

thanks a lot bro :) I truly appreciated this help from you

May God bless you :-)

Keep the existing code up to the point where you have your toprint array populated with data then, instead of printing it to System.out,
create a JTable like I said in my previous post
create new JFrame
add the table to the frame
make the frame visible

... it really is that easy.

Mr. pen 0 Newbie Poster · Answer 6 · 2011-06-13T18:47:48+00:00

you mean like this ?

public static Region getUserRegion() {
        //boolean x = true ;
        int answer = 0;
        try {
            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
            for (int i = 0; i < regions.length; i++) {
                System.out.println((i + 1) + "- " + regions[i].getRegionName());
            }
//            System.out.println("Choose Region : ");
//            answer = input.nextInt();
         //   answer  =Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Choose the number of the region" ));
           System.out.println(answer);
          answer  =Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Choose the number of the region" ));
          

            //x = false ;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.err.print("" + e + " , invalide input , "
                    + "plz input of othe list number above ");
        }
        return regions[answer - 1];
    }

it print me 0 ! and then stop working again !!
