Hello all I am brand new to Java and I am really trying to carry over what I have learned from .Net. I have done VB for two years now and now learning Java and I can't figure out why I can't get this GUI to pop up. Here is what I am working with thus far:
The frame pops up and is completely black. Any ideas?Code:package langInterp; import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.JButton; import javax.swing.JLabel; //Start of the Class for the front end. @SuppressWarnings("serial") public class frontEnd extends JPanel{ frontEnd(){ BorderLayout border = new BorderLayout(); JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setLayout(border); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setVisible(true); frame.setSize(500,250); frame.setLocation(450,450); JTextField textInput = new JTextField("", 25); JButton btnGo = new JButton("Enter"); btnGo.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e){ } }); JLabel dispResult = new JLabel(""); frame.add(textInput, BorderLayout.NORTH); frame.add(btnGo, BorderLayout.SOUTH); frame.add(dispResult, BorderLayout.CENTER); } public static void main(String[] args){ javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){ public void run(){ new frontEnd(); } }); } }
