How To Make An Application Icon Progress Indicator In Java? [duplicate]

I'd like to know if it is possible to make a progress bar displayed on the taskbar like Windows Explorer does when there's a file operation going on?
I saw many examples, but they all involved C#.
SWT won't cut it.

I found out that this feature is included in Java 9. It is part of AWT and it is quity simple too use.
Here is short example:
import java.awt.Taskbar;
import java.awt.Taskbar.State;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.WindowConstants;
/**
* #author fxl
*/
public class TaskbarSample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// JavaDoc:
// https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/awt/Taskbar.html
// MSDNDoc:
// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd391692(VS.85).aspx
if (Taskbar.isTaskbarSupported() == false) {
return;
}
JFrame dialog = new JFrame("Test - 50%");
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
dialog.setVisible(true);
Taskbar taskbar = Taskbar.getTaskbar();
taskbar.setWindowProgressState(dialog, State.ERROR);
taskbar.setWindowProgressValue(dialog, 50);
}
}

this is now possible using SWT please review the code example:
org.eclipse.swt.snippets.Snippet336

This example will do the job:

There is no standard facility in Java for doing so, yet.
Hence you need to talk to Windows directly to do that. So you need to locate the correct Windows routine, and use JNA (probably the easiest) to invoke that routine. I do not know of a vendor or a project who has done this already.
Edit: It appears that the http://code.google.com/p/nativelibs4java/ project may do what you want.

As Java9's java.awt.Taskbar only works for old swing frames (they somehow forgot to implement this for javafx.stage.Stage) and com.nativelibs4java bridj isn't working (anymore) (see https://github.com/nativelibs4java/BridJ/issues/94) I implemented a solution using JNA 4.1.0.
Please note:
Relies on calling internal javafx api (com.sun.javafx.stage.WindowHelper) - so it might break with the next java update
It only sets the "indeterminate" progress state - but normal progress state should be possible too with some adjustments
Hope this helps.

Windows exposes this through COM. I am sure a "flat DLL" call would be easier for you, but if you can get to COM you can do this. The COM interface is ITaskbarList3 (there is also an ITaskbarList4 you can use that inherits from it.) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd391692(VS.85).aspx documents it. SetProgressState and SetProgressValue are the methods you will want to invoke. State is normal (green), paused (yellow), error (red), indeterminate (swooshing green) and none. On the MSDN page some community people have added details of calling this COM component from VB and C# - that might help you figure out the setup and tear down required from Java.

Playing sound in Java using java.applet class

I am building a simple program with one button. I want to play the "zvuk.wav" file after I click on the button. It's not working though and I cant solve why. When I click the button, nothing happens. The zvuk.wav file is in the src file with the classes.
Here is my first class which imports java.applet:
package Music;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.applet.*;
public class Music {
private URL soubor;
public Music(String cesta){
try {
soubor = new URL("file:"+cesta);
} catch (MalformedURLException vyjimka) {
System.err.println(vyjimka);
}
Applet.newAudioClip(soubor).play();
}
}
MainFram which extends JFrame and has one Button:
package Music;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class MainFrame extends JFrame{
public static final int WIDTH = 480;
public static final int HEIGHT = 600;
private String file;
public MainFrame(){
setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setVisible(true);
setTitle("Přehrávač");
setResizable(false);
JPanel jPanel = new JPanel();
JButton bPlay = new JButton("PLAY");
jPanel.setLayout(null);
add(jPanel);
jPanel.add(bPlay);
bPlay.setBounds(200, 250, 100, 50);
bPlay.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
Music music = new Music("zvuk.wav");
}
});
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
new MainFrame();
}
});
}
}

Please note that Applet.newAudioClip(url).play() does not throw an error if it fails for whatever reason (for example nothing will happen if the project cannot find the wav file).
Try this stand alone test app. Does it work?
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.applet.AudioClip;
import java.net.URL;
public class MainClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
URL url = new URL("file:zvuk.wav" );
AudioClip ac = Applet.newAudioClip(url);
ac.play();
System.out.println("Press any key to exit.");
System.in.read();
ac.stop();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}
If this small sample works, then it should be a small matter to modify it for your purposes.
However if it doesn't work then we almost certainly know that you project is unable to find the wav file.
Try add this to the code above:
//existing line
URL url = new URL("file:zvuk.wav" );
//new lines to debug wav file location
File myMusicFile = new File(url.getPath());
if(myMusicFile.exists() && !myMusicFile.isDirectory()) {
System.out.println("File exists and is not a directory");
}
If the file does not exist then that's your problem, and you need to point your URL to the correct location.
However if the file does exist and it still doesn't work then we have another possible issue outside of code.
It is possible that .play() is completing too quickly, see below for an example of how to keep it alive.
It is possible that your wav file is not a type that can be played, or it requires an unsupported codec. This is a far bigger topic and needs a new question, and a little bit of research on your part.
Here is the example to keep it alive from the sample code:
//load and start audio
AudioClip ac = Applet.newAudioClip(url);
ac.play();
System.out.println("Press any key to exit.");
//keep thread alive until a key is pressed
System.in.read();
ac.stop();

I do this using NetBeans. This is the code.

Java: Screen has not been loaded

I created a JavaFX application that is nearly completed. I exported it as a runnable JAR. When opening this JAR I only see a blank window. i followed some other answers from stackoverflow but I did not get it working.
It works only in the Eclipse IDE!
My screens controller:
package gui;
import java.io.File;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Set;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Node;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
public class ScreensController extends StackPane {
private HashMap<String, Node> screens = new HashMap<>();
public static String sourcePath = "";
private CoreService coreService;
public ScreensController(){
super();
}
public void addScreen(String name, Node screen) {
screens.put(name, screen);
}
public boolean loadScreen(String name, String resource) {
System.out.println("ID: "+name);
System.out.println("Resource: "+resource);
String file = System.getProperty("user.dir")+"\\bin\\"+resource;
// System.out.println(file);
try {
FXMLLoader myLoader = new FXMLLoader();
File f = new File(file);
URL url = f.toURI().toURL();
myLoader.setLocation(url);
// System.out.println("Location: "+myLoader.getLocation());
Parent loadScreen = (Parent) myLoader.load();
ControlledScreen myScreenControler =
((ControlledScreen) myLoader.getController());
myScreenControler.setScreenParent(this);
addScreen(name, loadScreen);
System.out.println("Anzahl Screens: "+screens.size());
return true;
}catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Fehler beim Laden von "+file);
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
return false;
}
}
public boolean setScreen(final String name) {
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
Node screenToRemove;
if(screens.get(name) != null){ //screen loaded
if(!getChildren().isEmpty()){ //if there is more than one screen
getChildren().add(0, screens.get(name)); //add the screen
screenToRemove = getChildren().get(1);
getChildren().remove(1); //remove the displayed screen
}else{
getChildren().add(screens.get(name)); //no one else been displayed, then just show
}
return true;
}else {
System.out.println("Screen hasn't been loaded!!! \n");
return false;
}
}
public boolean unloadScreen(String name) {
if(screens.remove(name) == null) {
System.out.println("Screen didn't exist!!!");
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
public void print() {
Set<String> keys = screens.keySet();
Iterator<String> it = keys.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()){
System.out.println("Key: "+it.next());
}
}
public CoreService getCoreService(){
return this.coreService;
}
public void setCoreService(CoreService coreService){
this.coreService = coreService;
}
}
And here I use it:
package gui;
import java.util.Optional;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Alert;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.ButtonType;
import javafx.stage.Modality;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.stage.WindowEvent;
public class MainMenu extends Application {
private Stage mainStage;
private static CoreService coreService;
public static final String MAIN_SCREEN = "main";
public static final String MAIN_SCREEN_FXML = "gui\\MainMenu.fxml";
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
this.mainStage = primaryStage;
ScreensController mainContainer = new ScreensController();
mainContainer.loadScreen(MainMenu.MAIN_SCREEN, MainMenu.MAIN_SCREEN_FXML);
mainContainer.setCoreService(MainMenu.coreService);
mainContainer.setScreen(MainMenu.MAIN_SCREEN);
Group root = new Group();
root.getChildren().addAll(mainContainer);
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.setOnCloseRequest(confirmCloseEventHandler);
primaryStage.show();
}
private EventHandler<WindowEvent> confirmCloseEventHandler = event -> {
//Source: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29710492/javafx-internal-close-request
Alert closeConfirmation = new Alert(
Alert.AlertType.CONFIRMATION,
"Are you sure you want to exit?"
);
Button exitButton = (Button) closeConfirmation.getDialogPane().lookupButton(
ButtonType.OK
);
exitButton.setText("Exit");
closeConfirmation.setHeaderText("Confirm Exit");
closeConfirmation.initModality(Modality.APPLICATION_MODAL);
closeConfirmation.initOwner(mainStage);
closeConfirmation.setX(mainStage.getX() + 150);
closeConfirmation.setY(mainStage.getY() - 300 + mainStage.getHeight());
Optional<ButtonType> closeResponse = closeConfirmation.showAndWait();
if (!ButtonType.OK.equals(closeResponse.get())) {
event.consume();
}
};
public static void main(String[] args, CoreService aService) {
// Weitergeben des CoreServices
coreService = aService;
launch(args);
}
}
I do not see where the error is.
When I start the program from command line it says that the MainMenu.fxml file could not been found.
In my application it is in the package gui. -> gui/MainMenu.fxml
Would be nice if someone find my error!

What the error message tells you, that the FXML file cannot be located.
You could try to:
Change this ...
public static final String MAIN_SCREEN_FXML = "gui\\MainMenu.fxml";
... to ...
public static final String MAIN_SCREEN_FXML = "/gui/MainMenu.fxml";
And to change this ...
FXMLLoader myLoader = new FXMLLoader();
File f = new File(file);
URL url = f.toURI().toURL();
myLoader.setLocation(url);
... to (and you don't need the variables file and f)...
FXMLLoader myLoader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource(resource));
Some references:
I had an answer here on how to use getResource.
Also you can check the documentation of getResource()
And you can check this question about loading resources from a JAR

Simple Java editor GUI

Hello i create the GUI code for simple Java editor
i create the menu but i need to match
File: New: Create a new file. asking for the name of the file (and therefore the public class) and the directory in which it will be stored. With the creation of the file is inserted into the structure of the public class, for example public class MyClass{ }.
Open: opens files with source code java ( .java).
Save : saves the current snippet on the same file with this established during the creation of.
Save as : displays the dialog box where you requested the name of the file, the format of the directory in which it will be stored. The format will be java file ( .java). The main part of the window will have the editor to be used by the user to edit a file source Java.
The main part of the window will have the editor to be used by the user to edit a file source Java. information which will be renewed during the processing of a snippet: Number lines Number reserved words in java source code
Formatting Text
Each file will open formatted and will formatted when processed in the following rules: The reserved words of java will appear with color blue.
The comments will appear in green
The String Literals with orange
All other with black
The Font will be Courier Font size 12pt
i will provide the GUI code can anyone help me with the above ?
Regards
Antonis

Also i provide a mockup of it:
Mockup

First you should have a look at the File class. It provides you methods to create, open, modify and save files. To read files you also might want to give BufferedReader or any other Reader a shot.
Creating a file: File has the method createNewFile(), use it in combination with exists().
To open and read a file use a try-with-resource (There's actually a nice tutorial about it in the Java Manuals).
To save a file you should check out the FileWriter, it can write strings or append them to files.
For your editor you might want to replace the before mentioned BufferedReader with a LineReader, which also provides methods to get the line number. Other than that you have to figure out yourself how to number the lines. (Actually it's just googling around a lot, there will be some ideas like this one - which I didn't check in detail but it might help).
Of course for the editor you should first read the file into a string, use a formatter for it and then you can present it and reformat it when needed.
Apart from these hints I can not provide you with more detailed answers, as you can also read in the comments it would be easier if you would provide more detailed questions. You now just gave us a GUI which has almost nothing to do with your actual problems.
Show us some of your (problematic) work and we can help you, but otherwise we can not do much more than giving you some hints as I just did. So try to think about your problems, try how to ask for more precise answers and open some new questions if you want.
But don't forget to check out the site for answers, for me almost all of my questions I'd like to ask are already asked somewhere in a similar manner.

Hello again lets split work into steps ,
firstly i would like to create the new,open,save ,save as , export into pdf menu and event
below is the code that i used ,the GUI frame open correctly with new ,open,save, save as ,export into pdf labels but as action nothing happened.
Could someone write to me the correct code for that? be in mind i am very java beginner.
public EEMenuBar() {
super();
fileMenu = new JMenu("File");
//Create the New menu item
newItem = new JMenuItem("New");
newItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_N);
newItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
}
});
fileMenu.add(newItem);
openItem = new JMenuItem("Open");
openItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_0);
openItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
/*TODO Open existing java source file*/
}
});
fileMenu.add(openItem);
saveItem = new JMenuItem("Save");
saveItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_S);
saveItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
/*TODO save changes to file*/
}
});
fileMenu.add(saveItem);
saveAsItem = new JMenuItem("Save As");
saveAsItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_A);
saveAsItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
/*TODO Save as new java source file*/
}
});
fileMenu.add(saveAsItem);
exportItem = new JMenuItem("Export to pdf");
exportItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_E);
exportItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
// TODO save as pdf(formatted)
}
});
fileMenu.add(exportItem);

Windows 7 Taskbar Progress Bar in Java

I'd like to know if it is possible to make a progress bar displayed on the taskbar like Windows Explorer does when there's a file operation going on?
I saw many examples, but they all involved C#.
SWT won't cut it.

I found out that this feature is included in Java 9. It is part of AWT and it is quity simple too use.
Here is short example:
import java.awt.Taskbar;
import java.awt.Taskbar.State;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.WindowConstants;
/**
* #author fxl
*/
public class TaskbarSample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// JavaDoc:
// https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/awt/Taskbar.html
// MSDNDoc:
// https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd391692(VS.85).aspx
if (Taskbar.isTaskbarSupported() == false) {
return;
}
JFrame dialog = new JFrame("Test - 50%");
dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
dialog.setVisible(true);
Taskbar taskbar = Taskbar.getTaskbar();
taskbar.setWindowProgressState(dialog, State.ERROR);
taskbar.setWindowProgressValue(dialog, 50);
}
}

this is now possible using SWT please review the code example:
org.eclipse.swt.snippets.Snippet336

This example will do the job:

There is no standard facility in Java for doing so, yet.
Hence you need to talk to Windows directly to do that. So you need to locate the correct Windows routine, and use JNA (probably the easiest) to invoke that routine. I do not know of a vendor or a project who has done this already.
Edit: It appears that the http://code.google.com/p/nativelibs4java/ project may do what you want.

As Java9's java.awt.Taskbar only works for old swing frames (they somehow forgot to implement this for javafx.stage.Stage) and com.nativelibs4java bridj isn't working (anymore) (see https://github.com/nativelibs4java/BridJ/issues/94) I implemented a solution using JNA 4.1.0.
Please note:
Relies on calling internal javafx api (com.sun.javafx.stage.WindowHelper) - so it might break with the next java update
It only sets the "indeterminate" progress state - but normal progress state should be possible too with some adjustments
Hope this helps.

Windows exposes this through COM. I am sure a "flat DLL" call would be easier for you, but if you can get to COM you can do this. The COM interface is ITaskbarList3 (there is also an ITaskbarList4 you can use that inherits from it.) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd391692(VS.85).aspx documents it. SetProgressState and SetProgressValue are the methods you will want to invoke. State is normal (green), paused (yellow), error (red), indeterminate (swooshing green) and none. On the MSDN page some community people have added details of calling this COM component from VB and C# - that might help you figure out the setup and tear down required from Java.
