- Assignment:
- Follow instructions on the syllabus to download and install BOTH the
TextPad editor and the Java Developers' Kit (JDK) version 2 from the
internet. Note that these are BIG downloads! Do them on a broadband
connection.
- Enter in the code from example 1 (on page 1-1) of our
text, GUI Java. (You can copy and paste it from
here)
- Save it, execute it, debug it, save it again.
- Modify it in your own UNIQUE way! E.g., Draw several
rectangles and print several text fields. Three requirements here:
- Has to be original (no duplicating anyone else's
code in class)
- Has to include multiple SOMETHINGs (e.g., multiple
shapes, multiple text, multiple scroll panes).
- Details on how to turn it: Show it to me
in class!
