Creating Button Array Error

Rookie here, I'm attempting to create a button array but I get the following errors:

import java.awt.*;

public class CreateButtonArray extends JFrame{
     public static void main(String[] args){

               setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
               setLayout(new BorderLayout());
               JPanel numPad = new JPanel();
               numPad.setLayout(new GridLayout(4, 4, 5, 5));
               add(numPad.CENTER);

Thank you, AnanSmriti . See I told you I was a rookie. During my travel back home today I read up on Methods and Arrays. It seems I fix (with the forums feedback), I find another one. Here is my latest error. Again, thanks all for your assistance. This is very educational.

  • What is the best way to create diagonal array in order to avoid MEMORY IS FULL error created by using INITIALIZE ARRAY vi?

    Using the values in a 1D array, I need to place them along the diagonal of a 2D array. Currently, I've been using INITIALIZE ARRAY VI to create 2D array of zeroes and then usE REPLACE ARRAY SUBSET to put the 1D array values on the diagonal. This works sometimes but I often get an error stating that the memory is full and that the application was stopped at INITIALIZE ARRAY.
    I'd appreciate any advice on how to stop this from occuring.
    Thanks and happy holidays,
    Hunter (LabView 6.1 user)

    Weather is the same here, too.
    Sorry about the PDF. I had forgotten about the PRTSCN option. See the attached JPG.
    I'd send you an example input that is giving me problems but today, my computer seems to be behaving and the error hasn't popped up. This makes me believe that it's truly a memory problem with my machine.
    This VI is a subVI used in several computationally intensive applications.
    If you're still interested in playing with it, I will email it to you. Please send me your address. In fact, I see you're in the oil & gas industry and I'd like to hear what you're working on since I work in that industry as well.
    Thanks again, Hunter ([email protected])

  • Out of memory error when creating an array

    I'm trying to create 3D array of Bytes.
    Byte[][][] disk = disk = new Byte[11][9][25344];
    This is where I get an OutofMemory error.
    Please help!!!

    It is not as ballubadshah asserts a matter of how much memory you have but rather how much is allocated by default to the JVM heap.
    This number according to http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/ism.html is 64megabytes.
    When I run the following code, I get the number 64618496 which is just shy of 67108864, 64 meg. If I increase the array size I get the same error as you.
    To get past this, you can increase the heap size at runtime with the option -Xmx###m where ### is the number of megabytes to use for heap.
    ex
    c:/test>java -Xmx128m Memorypublic class Memory
       public static void main(String[] args)
          Runtime.getRuntime().gc();
          long start = Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory();
          Byte[][][] bytes = new Byte[11][9][25344];
          for(int i = 0; i < 11; i++)
             for(int j = 0; j < 9; j++)
                for(int k = 0; k < 45344; k++)
                   bytes[i][j][k] =
                      new Byte(new Double(Math.random() * 256).byteValue());
          Runtime.getRuntime().gc();
          long end = Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory();
          System.out.println("memory usage  = " + Long.toString(end - start));
    }

  • How can I set the different boolean text in the button array?

    I created the OK boolean button array. How can I change the boolean text of each button to be different at run-time? I changed one, but the others are changed also.

    > Thank you for your help
    > Unfortunately I'm a beginner of this software. Please you
    > explain me more details.
    Select the control using the positioning tool and choose
    Customize... from the Edit menu or choose it by popping up
    on/right clicking on the control and selecting Advanced>>
    Customize...
    This will open the control up in a new window -- the control
    editor window. This window allows for lots of additional
    control modifications and allows for them to be saved into
    typedefs to promote reuse and make things more consistent.
    Once in the control editor, popup on the button and select
    the menu item near the bottom Multiple Text Strings.
    Close the editor window and the first dialog will ask if
    you would like to save the change
    d file. Choose No, and a
    second dialog will ask if you would like to Replace the
    Original Control. Choose Yes.
    At this point the Button will support multiple text labels.
    To edit the True string, make the Boolean True and use the
    Labeling tool to edit the string that is visible. To edit
    the False string, make the Boolean False and use the labeling
    tool to edit that string too.

  • Help needed in refreshing a button array

    Hi,
    I am developing a GUI, in which window1 is in package pack1 & window2 in pack2. from window1, clicking "Add" button window2 appears.
    In window1, I am storing the content of a particular directory in my file system as a string array. So, each string in the string array is used as the label of a button in the button array. The no. of buttons corresponds to the no. of files in the directory. window1 is having a panel that displays the buttonarray.
    In window2, I have created a textfield and a "ok" button. whatever textinput(string) I give to the textfield, after clicking "ok" that is stored as a file in the directory, to which window1 refers for its buttons.
    My requirement is: During runtime, when I am creating new files thru the textfield of window2,those files need to be added to the panel of window1 dynamically updating the directory content.
    So, how can I refresh the panel in window1 after adding a file thru textfiels in window2.
    If anybody has any idea about this, please let me know soon.
    Regards.

    Ladies,

    I would feel a lot safer with a decent image of my Hard Drive. I already lost one and do not want to repeat this again...
    Can any one help?

    If you want to create a backup of your system volume, then do not use disc images. They are not bootable. Here's a far better solution:
    How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
    4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    You can also do the same using other backup utilities that can create bootable backups:
    Backup Software Recommendations
    My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)

  • For loop and xml - how to point the right content in a XML file with a dynamically created button?

    Hi Everybody,
    as my first experience in AS3 I'm bulding a photo multigallery. In that gallery I have some buttons, each one pointing to its respective set of images.
    Each button is created with the for loop, that picks the information from a XML file. From this XML I get the text of the button, the position etc. What I did with some sucess. But there is a scary problem: I don't know how to make each button load the respective and unique set of images.
    I've tryied several different methods, with no effect, to make each loop to give to each button an unique identity to load the respective set of images.
    I imagine that the solution pass by the use of arrays. I wrote some code, and I guess that I'm almost there (but not sure). Here is my AS3 code until now:
    // CREATE MENU CONTAINER //
    var menuContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    menuContainer.x=10;
    menuContainer.y=300;
    addChild(menuContainer);
    // CREATE IMAGES CONTAINER //
    var imagesContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    imagesContainer.x=10;
    imagesContainer.y=10;
    addChild(imagesContainer);
    //// LOAD XML ////
    var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

    you can assign each newSetButtonMC and ivar property that points to its i value or, even easier:
    // CREATE MENU CONTAINER //
    var menuContainer:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    menuContainer.x=10;
    menuContainer.y=300;
    addChild(menuContainer);

    addChild(imagesContainer);

  • How do I create an Array of Images

    Hi,
    I'm creating a program that basically is a slideshow. It has buttons that allow the user to switch from image to image, and has some audio in the background. I was wondering how I might create an array to store the images. I'm very new to Java, so please no detail is too small. I've just started using arrays, so I'm not sure where I would store the files or how to call the images. Please be descriptive and as dumbed down as possible :)
    Thanks for the help!

    I like ArrayList
    ArrayList<BufferedImage> myPics = new ArrayList();then just dump them in with add(myBufferedImage)
    If you'e not using BufferedImages then just change the BufferedImage to Image.
    to get, say the 6th image back out, then use:
    myBufferedImage = myPics.get(5);the index starts at 0 and should be addressed as 0 to (myPics.length - 1)

  • Scroll bars & creating buttons problem

    I am trying to create a basic photo browser. The upper area is the enlarged view of the image. The lower portion is a scrollable view of the thumbnails in the directory chosen. I have most of it working...except that the scrollable view doesn't scroll, and the buttons that I created don't cause the image to show up in the main view port.
    There is the main window, divided into two parts: upper and lower. The upper part is the main view, as described above. The lower part is a panel. That lower panel contains two things, another panel and a button. This panel inside the lower section contains the scrollable window; this scrollable window is a viewport onto another panel that contains the dynamically created buttons (which are thumbnails of the images in the directory).
    I was trying to force the scrollbar policy to always show the horizontal bar (that is the only one I want visible) but that wasn't working either; I would get compiler errors when that was included. I have tried adjusting sizes of things, and the order that things are added to the main JFrame.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Ah! I got some of it figured out at least...
    Setting the preferred size parameter has caused the scroll bars to display! :) Thanks for the hint on that.
    But I get an error when I try and use the scrollbar policy settings. Here are the results:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid verticalScrollBarPolicy
         at javax.swing.JScrollPane.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(Unknown Source)
         at javax.swing.JScrollPane.<init>(Unknown Source)
         at PhotoGUI.<init>(PhotoGUI.java:70)
         at PhotoBrowser.main(PhotoBrowser.java:15)And the code I used:
    scroller = new JScrollPane(thumbs,
                        ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS,
                        ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);       //Setting the scroll bar pane to view the thumbnail panel

  • How to create an array of ArrayLists?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to compile the following code:
    ArrayList<Object> arr[];
    arr = new ArrayList<Object>()[size];in order to create an array of ArrayLists. I'm being met with the following compilation error:
    The type of this expression must be an array type but it resolved to ArrayList<Object>
    Can anyone show me how to correctly do this?
    Thanks

    {color:#3D2B1F}This line:
    List<Object>[] arr = new ArrayList<Object>[5];generates the compiler error: "generic array creation" (generics and arrays don't play well together)
    Since you are just parameterizing with Object, you can use non-generic collections:
    List[] arr = new ArrayList[5];Me? I don't like mixing arrays and collections. I would have a list of lists:
    List<List<X>> matrix = new ArrayList<List<X>>();{color}

  • How to create an array of generics?

    I have the following snippet of code using array of vectors:
    Vector[] tmpArr = new Vector[n];
    for(int j=0; j<n; j++)
    tmpArr[j] = new Vector();
    String str = ...
    if (!tmpArr[j].contains(str))
    tmpArr[j].add(str);
    And I want to convert to generics:
    Vector<String>[] tmpArr = new Vector<String>[n];
    for(int j=0; j<n; j++)
    tmpArr[j] = new Vector<String>();
    String str = ....
    if (!tmpArr[j].contains(str))
    tmpArr[j].add(str);
    But the first row gives me an error:
    -->Generic array creation.
    If I change it in
    Vector<String>[] tmpArr = new Vector<String>[n];
    (as I've seen in a pdf by G.Bracha talking aout collections)
    it gives me the error:
    -->cannot find symbol
    -->method add(String)
    in the
    tmpArr[j].add(str);
    row.
    The only way it seems to work is
    Vector<String>[] tmpArr = new Vector[n];
    but it gives me the unchecked conversion warning.
    How can I create an array of generics?
    Thank you!
    Matteo

    You can't
    Actually, that depends on the exact definition of a generic array. If by generic array someone means "an array comprised of elements defined by a type parameter", there is a solution.
    import java.lang.reflect.Array;
    public class Something<T> {
        private final Class<T> type;
        public Something(Class<T> type) {
            this.type = type;
        public String getTypeName() {
            return this.type.getName();
        public T[] newArray(final int length) {
            return (T[]) Array.newInstance(this.type, length);
    }The constructor introduces the type information (T) to the runtime environment, which means an instance of Something will know its type. Method newArray therefore does not cause a warning on unchecked type conversion, so this approach is typesafe.
    // Type parameter class is demanded by constructor...
    Something<String> stringThing = new Something<String>(String.class);
    // Cheating won't work, because the compiler catches the error...
    Something<Vector> vectorThing = new Something<Vector>(Integer.class);This approach, however, doesn't enable you to create an array of typed elements (like Vector<String>[]). If that is the definition of a generic array, then it is indeed not possible to create one.
    After all, while Vector[].class exists and can be resolved at runtime, there's no such thing as Vector<String>[].class, so there's no way you could provide the class definition of the component type to the constructor of Something.
    This may be a surprise to mdt_java, because if I remember correctly, templates in C++ cause actually different classes to be created for 'generic' types. This is not the case with Java.

  • How to create an array of an object,

    Hi,
    Trying this in Oracle 10.3 studio, I have to use a web service, I have re-catalogued the web service succesfully,
    I am getting compilation error whenI try to create an array of a object,
    Services.PackageTrackingService.PackageTrackingItem[] pkgTrackingItem = new Services.PackageTrackingService.PackageTrackingItem[2];
    I am giving the array size as 2,
    The comilation error is showing as
    Multiple markers at this line
    - statement is expected
    - Expecting ';' but 'pkgTrackingItem' was found
    - expression is expected
    Is there any other way to create the array?
    Thanks in advance.
    -Sree

    Hi,
    Please declare the array in following manner.
    Services.PackageTrackingService.PackageTrackingItem[] pkgTrackingItem;
    Now you can insert the element into the array by pkgTrackingItem[0], pkgTrackingItem[1] etc.
