Daok call Turtle

Hey hello,

This post is just to ask a simple question ( any one can answer ).

We had to make a project in Java at school and we used multiple choice... I have made a menu with an InputBox ( Exemple :

F=Choice1
G=Choice2 ... )

Person had to press the letter then press enter to continue. But some "nerds" licked better marck to the teacher ( :D ) becauce theu have made in a input box 4-5 buttons. I dont know how they did but it's like a messagebox/inputbox but it a box who you can add some button.

I know than it's a easy code because I take a little look ( :rolleyes: ) but I dont remember it. Can you please help me to prove than I can make something cool like them.

Daok

I don't know Swing yet. :(

Thank guys for the help ! :D :D :D

Motoxpro you have posted 10 messages who are not related to any topic since the last 5 minutes...please calm down. :)

i know i am deleting all of them

I think what your talking about is the JOptionPane, its like the MsgBox in VB but has a lot more complexity.
Best to look in the Javadoc there's some good examples in there!

Hope I helped!

yeah he is talking about a JOptionPane. I know the class well
but you have to get yourself a swing book becuase there are tons of constructors for the class as well as constants and static
dialog display methods. Really too many to list. :(

I have a book but I am not at that stage can you just give me a sample of a code of JOptionPane with Jbutton on it ( 3-4 buttons who I will be able to add some action on them ). Please I know it's easy but I am not at that chapter in my book and I didnt see it in the Index.

Well, you know a lots of language : VB , C++, java, qbasic.... and you know so many thing about PC... I cannot imagine how you do to know all that.

I'm learning Java GUI programming at my mentorship at school now. :)

crap I will need to call you "The Machine" in few :D

the code you need is...

Code:

---

String options[] = new String[5];
               
options[0] = "Button 1";
options[1] = "Button 2";
options[2] = "Button 3";
options[3] = "Button 4";
options [4] = "Button 5";
               
int reply = JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, "Click button", "Clicky!",  JOptionPane.DEFAULT_OPTION,
                                        JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE, null, options, options[0]);
               
System.out.println("Reply was " + reply);

---

and then just select the reply to see what they clicked!

the style of the dialog is set by setting the 5th argument to one of the following
JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE
JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE
JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE
JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE

Hope that helps!

Code:

---

String[] options = { "Button 1", "Button 2", "Button 3", "Button 4", "Button 5" };
