Question

This lab puts together everything you learned till now: communication between classes, the creation and display of graphical components, and tracking of user interaction. Although it is work intensive, you should be able to handle all the requirements.

What will you learn

communication between classes

use of graphical components

Deliverables

Updated files for app.java, myJFrame.java, myJPanel.java, myJPanel1.java, myJPanel2.java, student.java

Contents

In panel 1

The ActionListener has to be implemented in myJPanel1

It has to ask for first name and last name using JTextFields.

It asks for the student’s age using a JSlider.

It has to have a OK button.

When the user clicks the OK button a new student is created in p2

Students’ first name from the first JTextField

Students’ Last name from the second JtextField

Student’s age from the JSlider value

The statement student st1 = new student etc… has to be executed in myJPanel2.java

In panel 2

A button with the student’s name

A button with the student’s picture

Have the option to show at least 3 different students (show just one at a time)

For instance, if the name typed is “fred”, show a fred.jpg; if its “john”, show a john.jpg.

The layout is yours to pick.

See drawing next page.
