Question

hi all
who could you give me some general idea about that
developping a web service that may be used for monitoring the performance of the Windows PC on which it runs. The web service will return key performance metrics, such as peak performance,maximum memory, current load, and current available memory. A secondary aim will be to develop a portlet that will provide an interface to the service.
Tomcat or J2EE web server, JSR-168 compliant portlets, and Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) should be metioned!
thanks
with regards

Answer 1

First of all, if you want to create a chess board, create a panel with a grid layout. The grid layout will carry the number of rows and columns that you need.
Second, you will have to set the color of each grid alternatively to black and white.
After you have done this, your chess bord is ready.
Now...coming to the mouse events:
You will have to implement a MouseListener and implelemnt the method mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) attached to the container.
So when you use the methods getX() and getY() based on the MouseEvent e...
e.getX(); //Returns the horizontal x co-ordinate
e.getY();// Returns the horizontal y co-ordinateHope this helps.
