We Keep Coding

Why is java copying instead of creating a new Instant When i use different variables?

I made a fairly simple code and i got into an error which confused me.
So I have a class that creates two totally different variables and creating them using the new keyword
Player playerLeft = new Player(5,150);
Player playerRight = new Player( 150,150);
Player class:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Player extends JComponent {
private int posY;
private int posX;
public Player(int x, int y) {
posX = x;
posY = y;
//repaint();
}
public float getMovementY() {
return movementY;
}
public void setMovementY(int movementY) {
this.movementY = movementY;
}
int movementY = 0;
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
Graphics2D _g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(posX, posY, 20, 150);
_g2.fill(rect);
}
public void setLocation(int x, int y) {
posY = y;
posX = x;
repaint();
}
public void move() {
setLocation(posX, posY + movementY);
}
}
It's probably me not knowing something about Java but for me when I try to instantiate playerRight it just overwrites player left and drawsOut playerRight only.
Here is the complete code:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import java.awt.event.KeyListener;
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;
public class mainJFrame extends JFrame implements KeyListener {
int relativeTimeMillsec = 0;
Player playerLeft = new Player(5, 150);
Player playerRight = new Player(150, 150);
Timer timer = new Timer();
TimerTask task = new TimerTask() {
#Override
public void run() {
relativeTimeMillsec++;
refreshTimeText(relativeTimeMillsec);
calcMovements();
}
};
//components
JLabel timeCounterLabel = new JLabel("Time: " + 0, SwingConstants.CENTER);
public mainJFrame() {
createComponents();
addKeyListener(this);
}
public void createComponents() {
this.setTitle("The title");
this.setSize(800, 600);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.setVisible(true);
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, 0, 10);
JButton testButton = new JButton("Label");
testButton.setSize(100, 25);
testButton.setLocation(this.getWidth() / 2 - testButton.getWidth() / 2, this.getHeight() / 2 - testButton.getHeight() / 2);
timeCounterLabel.setSize(200, 25);
timeCounterLabel.setLocation(this.getWidth() / 2 - timeCounterLabel.getWidth() / 2, 10);
//playerRight = new Player(this.getWidth()-45,this.getHeight()/2);
// this.add(testButton);
this.add(timeCounterLabel);
this.add(playerLeft);
this.add(playerRight);
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
{
super.repaint();
}
}
#Override
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_S) {
playerLeft.movementY = +2;
} else if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_W) {
playerLeft.movementY = -2;
}
if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_UP) {
playerRight.movementY = +2;
} else if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_DOWN) {
playerRight.movementY = -2;
}
}
#Override
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
}
#Override
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
}
private double calcRealRelativeTime(int _relTime) {
return relativeTimeMillsec / (double) 100;
}
private void refreshTimeText(int _relTime) {
timeCounterLabel.setText("Time: " + Math.round(calcRealRelativeTime(_relTime)));
}
private void calcMovements() {
playerLeft.move();
playerRight.move();
}
}

Understand that a JFrame's contentPane (the container that holds its components) uses BorderLayout by default, and this code:
this.add(timeCounterLabel);
this.add(playerLeft);
this.add(playerRight);
is adding all components to the same default BorderLayout.CENTER position, meaning any components added will replace components added previously.
But more importantly, yours is a common problem and stems from your having your Player class extend from a GUI component. Don't do this, as then you will have a great deal of difficulty drawing multiple Player objects and having them interact easily (as you're finding out). Instead have Player be a logical (non-component) class, and have only one class extend JPanel and do all the drawing. This class can hold Player objects, perhaps held in a collection such as an ArrayList<Player>, and then iterate through the collection within its paintComponent method.
Other issues:
Do not use java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask for Swing animations since these classes do not follow Swing threading rules. Use instead a javax.swing.Timer.
Learn and use Java naming conventions. Variable names should all begin with a lower letter while class names with an upper case letter. Learning this and following this will allow us to better understand your code, and would allow you to better understand the code of others
If/when you do override a painting method such as paintComponent, be sure to call the super's method within your override, usually on the first line, so as not to break the painting chain. Also, use the #Override annotation before this method and any other methods that you think that you may be overriding so that the compiler catches possible errors with this.

Okay so i have to make a program to create shapes using two mouseclicks and then be able to export/import them. I am trying to use arraylist for this but im having a hard time trying to get it to work. The rectangle im creating will not show up on the panel. What am i doing wrong? Please help me.

Lets start with the fact that DrawStuff hasn't actually been added to anything that is capable of painting it.
DrawStuff#paintComponent should be making decisions about updating the state of the shapes List, instead, your ActionListener and MouseListener should be making these decisions (what to add, where and what do modify), the DrawStuff panel should just be painting what's in the Shape list
You also shouldn't be modifying the state of the component from within the paintComponent calling things like setBackground could set up a repeated repaint request which could cripple your application if not your PC
Modify DrawStuff so it has it's own MouseListener and methods that allow your GUI to ask it to create new shapes. Make the shapes List a instance field so you can manage from within DrawStuff more easily
Something like...

For example. You always need to be asking yourself "who is responsible for doing what". In this case the DrawStuff panel is actually responsible for determine "where" something is drawn, but it needs more information about "what", then based on that information it can perform the actual operation

Java - boolean set to false with nothing telling it to do so

My boolean drawFlag is being set to false in my code with nothing visible actually telling it to change value to false. This is preventing the code inside method mouseDragged(mouseEvent) to execute. If someone could point out what's making the flag become false so this would stop happening? Thanks.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

Try to move drawFlag attribute from the inner class MouseDrag to the outer class GraphicsContent as follow
class GraphicsContent extends JPanel {
private int xStart, yStart;
private int width, height;
private volatile boolean drawFlag;
// other code
}

However as you drag, the value is constantly being reported as being false
You've got two listeners. One is a motion listener:
this.addMouseListener(new MouseDrag());
this.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseDrag());
mousePressed will not be called on a motion listener, so it will always be false in the drag event.
I expect what you meant is this:
MouseDrag listener = new MouseDrag();
this.addMouseListener(listener);
this.addMouseMotionListener(listener);

Are you sure you need two MouseDrag elements? I.e. using something like
public JPanel init() {
this.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
MouseDrag md = new MouseDrag();
this.addMouseListener(md);
this.addMouseMotionListener(md);
return this;
}
I can at least plot a blue square....

BorderLayout Duplicates Button

I am trying to create a canvas in which I can paint,and a button which resets the canvas in an empty state.
However using BorderLayout my button gets duplicated,the second one is an image copy of the first one but still it doesnt look good.
Is there anything wrong in my code and how can it be fixed.
PaintCanvas.java
import javax.swing.* ;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;

public framakryesore (){
b1.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
clearcanvas(p1);
repaint();
}
});
this.add(b1,BorderLayout.NORTH);
this.add(p1,BorderLayout.CENTER);
}
public void clearcanvas(PaintCanvas p){
p.setX(0);
p.setY(0);
}
}
public class PaintCanvas extends JPanel {
private int x = 0 ;
private int y = 0 ;
public void setX(int x){
this.x = x;
}
public void setY(int y){
this.y = y;
}

addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionListener() {
#Override

}
});
}

if (x==0 && y==0){

else
{
g.setFont(new Font("TimesRoman", Font.BOLD, 30));

}
}
}
PaintCanvasTest.java
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class PaintCanvasTest {

if (x==0 && y==0){
super.paintComponent(g);
You should always invoke super.paintComponent(). It is responsible for clearing the background of the panel before you do your custom painting.

Object issues in Java

I'm attempting to implement the dragging functionality of shapes on a canvas. My Shape class inherits from JPanel.
Absolutely nothing happens when I click on a shape, drag it and let go of the mouse button. It just remains where it was originally. Any ideas?

You need a few basic things:
A field for the shape itself (you already had)
Fields to keep track of the offset of the click within the shape (already had)
A field to keep track of if you're dragging
Overwrite the paintComponent method to paint your shape
A MouseListener and MouseMotionListener added to the Panel (MouseAdapter does both of these)
Here's a basic working example.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class DrawTest extends JPanel{
//Shape doesn't have a location field - you'd have to keep track of
//this yourself if you're set on using the shape interface
private Rectangle shape = new Rectangle(100, 100);
// The location within the shape you clicked
private int xOffset = 0;
private int yOffset = 0;
// To indicate dragging is happening
boolean isDragging = false;
public DrawTest(){
MouseAdapter listener = new MouseAdapter() {
#Override
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
// Starts dragging and calculates offset
if(shape.contains(e.getPoint())){
isDragging = true;
xOffset = e.getPoint().x - shape.x;
yOffset = e.getPoint().y - shape.y;
}
}
#Override
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
// Ends dragging
isDragging = false;
}
#Override
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
// Moves the shape - doesn't actually need to be a method
// but is because you had it as one
if(isDragging){
moveShape(e);
}
}
private void moveShape(MouseEvent e) {
Point newLocation = e.getPoint();
newLocation.x -= xOffset;
newLocation.y -= yOffset;
shape.setLocation(newLocation);
repaint();
}
};
//Add a mouse mostion listener (for dragging) and regular listener (for clicking)
addMouseListener(listener);
addMouseMotionListener(listener);
}
// So we have a play area to work with
public Dimension getPreferredSize(){
return new Dimension(400,300);
}
//Paints the shape
public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
super.paintComponent(g);
g.clearRect(0,0,getWidth(), getHeight());
g.fillRect(shape.x, shape.y, shape.width, shape.height);
}
