Loading a JPEG into a swing application...

I need help embedding a JPEG in a swing application(preferrably in it's own container). What should container should I use? Any helpful methods?

Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.

Entry points for integrating Openoffice writer into Java swing application

I googled the web and also took a look in below 2 web sites, just seems it is very difficult to get an entry point for me to try my frist application with open office writer integrated with my swing application.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide
http://api.openoffice.org/
What my question is:
1. Where can I get the completed jar files for using the open office writer api for my java application?
2. Is there any step by step practical example for using the api? It seems that the above links are quite messy and difficult to find an entry point to get a start, but just contain many segments separated through out the web site.
Thanks much for any suggestion.

Loading sound clips in my swing application

I have searched all the forums, din't find what i want.
I have many small sound files to be played in my application. Even on mouse Pressed, Drage etc etc....
Now I was looking for a better way of Loading the Sound files in memory as the application starts.....
If I use the Clip Interface of javax.sound and initilize them and open a stream, invoke the open() method, and store it in hashmap. So that when ever i need that file i will lookup for that clip and trigger the start() method which actually plays the sound. IS the approach the right approach, will not the Cip object keep the IO handle open, I have nearly 40 Clips to be loaded.
Can any one suggest me the better way of implementing this.
TIA
Zoha

As far as I know,there is no facility for detecting mouse scrolling wheel in JDK 1.3.
Check it in the later releases of JDK.

Your PhotoEditor class extends JPanel. In that class you override paintComponent(). But you never add the panel to the GUI, so that method is never invoked.
Personally I would have the PhotoEditor class extend JFrame. Then in the constructor you build all the components for the frame
a) build the menu
b) build the toolbar
Then I would create a PhotoPanel class that you extend and override the paintComponent(). Then you add this panel to the GUI as your main panel.
For a simple example of drawing a background image on a panel search the forum for my BackgroundImage example.

How to load a text file in a Java swings application

hi,
I am trying to retrieve a Java code(or say any text from an existing file) and display it in a swing application.
I am not able to do so.
Please help me.

public String readFile(File f){
          try {
               BufferedReader read = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
               String line = read.readLine();
               String total = "";
               while(line != null){
          //          System.out.println(line);
                    total += line;
                    line = read.readLine();
               read.close();
               return total;
          } catch (Exception e){
               e.printStackTrace();

     }that will read a file into a string, i hope you can figure out the rest

1) WHAT if I juse JUST ONE Adobe program pretty often?
They have a single use subscription for $20/mo. Similar to upgrading extended version every 1.5 years.
2) WHAT if I created projects like 2 months ago and I didn't use Photoshop for a full month. Who assures us that with the CC series the projects are opened with the old CS ones?Or don't use it every day?
Same problem if you own it. If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month. You can choose not to update and version will be same as when you last used it.
3) WHAT if I don't use Adobe 24/7? and 5) Making an day-based subscription?? Same problem if you own it. If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.
4) Adobe, do you think to be the only one making these softwares?
Competition is always a factor in market.
6) After all this mess, you discriminate Europeans, too?
Taxes charged by Governments and municipalities are not controlled by Adobe.

Getting errors loading flat file into BI 7 from application server

We are able to load the file via local (from the PC) successfully but when we try and load the exact same file from the application server we get an error:
Error 'The argument '151.8470707' cannot be interpreted as a number' when assigning application structure, line 478, contents "11 140604 1000 8110 902070 P..."
What is really strange if we split the file into 2 we are able to load each of the sections successfully from the appliation server. We have a need to load the whole file from the application server and don't wish to split it up. Can anyone tell me how to make this work??

what I should do is the following:
open the 3 files you have using notepad and compare line 478 in the original file (that had the error) with the corresponding line in one of those 2 other files. what are the differences? the answer to this question might give you a clue.
and if you don't see any differences try to cut and paste that one line with the error to a new 4th file and load this one and see if the error reoccurs (I think it will).

How to change the cursor type when a TableView class was added to a Swing application?

We can resize column width by dragging the column divider in the table header. This is a built-in feature of the TableView class.
Normally, the cursor will become to east-resize (or west-resize) type with positioning the cursor just to the right of a column header.
However, I found that the cursor is remaining the default type at the same position if I integrate JavaFX into Swing Application. That is adding the TableView to a Scene, and then adding this Scene to a JFXPanel, finally, adding this JFXPanel to the JFrame.
The sample codes are listing below:
public class Run extends JFrame {
    Run() {
        setSize(600, 450);
        setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        initComponents();
    private void initComponents() {
        final JFXPanel fxPanel = new JFXPanel();
        this.getContentPane().add(fxPanel);
        Platform.runLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                initFX(fxPanel);
    private void initFX(JFXPanel fxPanel) {
        Scene scene = null;
        try {
            scene = FXMLLoader.load(
                new File("res/fxml_example.fxml").toURI().toURL()
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        fxPanel.setScene(scene);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                new Run().setVisible(true);
fxml_example.fxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.Scene?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TableView?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TableColumn?>
<Scene xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml">
    <TableView fx:id="tableView"
               editable="true">
        <columns>
            <TableColumn text="COL1">
            </TableColumn>
            <TableColumn text="COL2">
            </TableColumn>
            <TableColumn text="COL3">
            </TableColumn>
            <TableColumn text="COL4">
            </TableColumn>
            <TableColumn text="COL5">
            </TableColumn>
        </columns>
    </TableView>
</Scene>
So, are there anyone can advise how to fix these codes; make the cursor can change to east-resize (or west-resize) type when this TableView class was added to a Swing application?

Thanks for the report. I've just filed a JIRA issue: https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-34009

OUT OF MEMORY - during loading images (JPEG's)

Hallo,
We use the OHJ (version 4.1.12) inside a Java/Swing application with JDK 1.3.1.
Our online help contains a lot of larger JPEG images. When the user navigates through the online help - an out of memory occurs while loading the images.
I tried to split the help pages in a lot of small HTML pages, but this doesn't help. It seems that the OHJ does not clear the memory
when loading the next HTML page.
Can the OHJ deal with larger images ?
Any other possibilities ?
Thanks
Markus Pohle

>

We have never seen such a problem with large images and OHJ. Could you send us a ZIP containing your help content by e-mail to [email protected] so that we can try to reproduce it?
Thanks,

Swing application w/images

Hello,
Java Image I/O provides ways to load and save images into swing applications. Does anyone know of other APIs? We're using Spring/RMI with a Swing client. The images would be stored on the server by index or something. Whats the best approach to write such an application? something that will provide the most flexibility (multiple image formats... viewing, saving, printing etc.) . thanks

Thanks for the response. Can i incorporate the ability to view TurboCad sketches (.tcw files) using this API?
