Looking for advanced Swing training/courses

Hi,
I am looking for compagnies/trainingcenters which have advanced swing trainings. Many have swing courses but after working pretty extensive with swing for a year now, I dont think those will be usefull. I'm looking from a course which handles advanced swing features pretty extensive such as building a look and feel, keyboard mappings, swing frameworks, performance issues etc.
Does anyone know compagnies, or taken a course yourself which is maybe the thing I'm looking for?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo Hendriks

When, where, and how is a GUI event created for a Swing component?

Somebody please help me with this issue !
Heavy weight (AWT) components such as JFrame, JDialog, JApplet, and JWindow have
native peers. As I understand, the senario of event creation for such heavy components
is something like follows:
1. A mouse click happens in a heavy component.
2. The native platform (i.e. the OS) captures the mouse click event and
store it as a native event somewhere in the system.
3. java.awt.EventDispatchThread gets this message and translates the native message
into an AWTEvent. When creating the AWTEvent, AWT actually looks up a hashtable
for the reference to the heavy component from the reference to the native window.
The hashtable stores all the pairs of heavy components and their native peers ever
created during the session. Now the AWTEvent includes a reference to the "source"
component that generates the event.
4. java.awt.EventDispatchThread dispatches the AWTEvent to the heavy component
for furture processing.
As for light weight (Swing) components such as JButtion, no native peers are attached.
So, there is no mapping from native peers to light weight components.
After a mouse click happens over a JButton, how, when, and where is the corresponding
event created and finnally routed to JButton. Could somebody give a sketch of the
senario? Thanks a lot.

Basically for Swing components, it would have to figure out based on the size and location of the components which one the click happens in. One could simply know that this panel is so big and it has such and such components in it which are however big and located at whatever point. It's a matter of digging down through components to find the lowest (or would it be highest) one.

Looking for good Swing Frameworks

a client have asked me about frameworks to assemble Swing GUIs...
well, I�m expert in using Swing but I�m from the old school, i.e., hand-made interfaces from the model to the view, passing through the actions and regular expressions to consistency checking... And the client team is a frameworks lover..
Now, it seems time to update my knowledge through the usage of frameworks, these new stuff about XML representing dynamic GUIs, JIT rendering, etc.
any tip will be greateful...

Ive looked for 2 days, i cant find this swing component

im looking for the size of the rectangles used to draw parts of a JScrollBar.
ive tired get them through calculations based on the ratios of visable space in the JScrollPane...that dosent work.
today ive tried making the protected method getThumbBounds() in BasicScrollUI() public so that i could see the sweeeeet rectangle dimensions within, yet when i execute this code i get all zeros
//scroll is a JScrollPane
scroll.getVerticalScrollBar().setUI(new BasicScrollBarUI());
BasicScrollBarUI ui = (BasicScrollBarUI) scroll.getVerticalScrollBar().getUI();
System.out.println(ui.getThumbBounds().toString() ); do i need to validate or somthing?
how else could i get them?

First of all, if you want to controll two scroll bars
at once, you don't need to know any of its dimensions.
You should read up on models, views, and controllers
in swing. i did read up on them and found no other way. maby someone could give more specifics on how else to do it? besides i allready have the code to do it,its only a few lines, i just need those values
Secondly, you can subclass the
MetalScrollBarUI and create methods which return the
size of the scroll buttons, the track, and the
thumb.great idea, but will this work for all look and feels? the more abstract ScrollBarUI does not seem to offer generic methods for getting the track value.
also if i cant find a way to do it for all L&Fs, where can i find the WindowsScrollBarUI class? id rather subclass that then the metal, but only as a last resort. thanks

Support for Multilingual Numeral Input in JTextField swing component

When the User Locale is changed from the regional & language options in the control panel and the standard digits are customized to a non Latin character set, all the windows applications adhere to the changes made. HTML also respects the changes in effect and displays any numeric values using the new character set, which are the national digits for many Eastern Locales such as Chinese, Arabic(Saudi Arabia), Urdu and many more. The JTextField swing component given by java, however, does not show any support to the new settings. Any numeric input is displayed in the Latin character set even when the input locale of the system is also changed respectively. Any text input for this case is correctly displayed in the desired literals and appropriate glyphs. However, unlike the AWT components, numeral input and display is not catered as per the user/developer's requirements. This behavior was first noticed in 2007, as far as i have found out, and was reported once again on the same thread in 2010. The thread is given below as a reference. No action or response has been taken. Kindly look into this matter and please let me know if this bug has been reported before and if there is any intent of providing a fix for it.

Looking for component: flexible rows like columns in a JTable

Hello,
I need a swing component to display several rows which can be moved up and down, the height resized, interchanged with the mouse like the columns in a JTable. But there is no need for columns. I think there is no standard swing component.
Any ideas, resource hints?
Thanks, Ulrich

One more piece of advice. It is not very easy to get "pre-written custom components". Most developers do things to meet their own needs and these may not be exactly what you are looking for. The best thing to do is to try to develop this yourself. It will give you loads of experience and in later programmes you may write, based on the experience you obtained from the "pain-staking" development process you'll know how to go round these problems quicker and may be able to help others also.
So just start writing some stuff. You may end up finishing sooner than you think. And remember forum members are always ready to help with problems (accompanied by minimal code examples of the actual problem).

Looking for a "free web calendar" component

Hi there,
I�m looking for a "Top Coder"-like calendar. The same functionality observed in the topcoder.com schedule...
and I�m looking this component free ...
is there any one out there ?

Did you ever find one? I'm looking for the same thing. I found some decent applet ones, I might just write a jsp front end for what I need, but I was hoping that someone did that already.
Thanks.

I'm looking for a good HDMI to component converter,

I decided to get a 2nd Apple TV for our basement room where we have an older TV with no HDMI input. I bought a cheaper HDMI to component converter but whenI hooked it up to the TV, I just got some weird green images and after triple checking all the cables, and testing the new Apple TV on our main TV with HDMI, I decided that the converter was the problem. Has anyone had any luck using a converter to get Apple TV to work with an older TV?
If so, please let me know what to look for.
Thanks.

Potential issues for you with such a converter.
If the converter is HDCP compliant then you wont be able to watch content from the iTunes store or netflix.
If your TV isn't widesceen or doesn't accept 720p then you'll likely find your picture is squashed or doesn't fill the screen properly.

Swing component for awt.canvas

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the equivalent SWING component for awt CANVAS. I need it because i need to display only Images (nothing else) on it. If anyone can tell how I can do it.

JPanel is the Swing-equivalent of java.awt.Canvas, but if you are just displaying images, you can use the JLabel class, which supports use of images as icons (see also ImageIcon class).

Looking for a text entry component

Hi,
I'm looking for a text entry component I can insert in some HTML pages and that will allow the end user to enter and format texts.
Do you know if such a component exists and where I can find it ?

I think I didn't took enough time to read your answer.
Do you mean the textara object in an applet will solve my problem ? most of the time, I'm developing java servlets and html pages but not applets. I'll try to have a look.
