java-gnome Menu click event(nothing happens)
Hi,
I have recently found an urge to learn GUI designing and programming. Since I am a java coder(for the most part) and since I love gnome, i started off with using the java-gnome bindings to develop some basic and simple GUI's using java.
I started with the tutorial given on the java-gnome site.
I got to the second example code and copied it over. it compiles and executes fine...but clicking on quit in the file menu or clicking on help/about do not show/execute anything..even though looking at the code..they should.
I am attaching the code here:
Code:
import org.gnu.gnome.About;
import org.gnu.gnome.App;
import org.gnu.gnome.Program;
import org.gnu.gnome.UIInfo;
import org.gnu.gtk.ButtonsType;
import org.gnu.gtk.DialogFlags;
import org.gnu.gtk.Gtk;
import org.gnu.gtk.MessageDialog;
import org.gnu.gtk.MessageType;
import org.gnu.gtk.event.LifeCycleEvent;
import org.gnu.gtk.event.LifeCycleListener;
import org.gnu.gtk.event.MenuItemEvent;
import org.gnu.gtk.event.MenuItemListener;
public class Second implements MenuItemListener {
private App app = null;
public static final String appVersion = "0.1";
public Second() {
createMainWindow();
createMenus();
app.showAll();
}
private void createMainWindow() {
app = new App("Second", "Second App");
app.setDefaultSize(200, 200);
app.addListener(new LifeCycleListener() {
public void lifeCycleEvent(LifeCycleEvent event) {}
public boolean lifeCycleQuery(LifeCycleEvent event) {
Gtk.mainQuit();
return false;
}
});
}
private void createMenus() {
UIInfo fileMenu[] = {
UIInfo.newItem("New Window", "Open a new application window", this),
UIInfo.separator(),
UIInfo.openItem(this),
UIInfo.saveItem(this),
UIInfo.saveAsItem(this),
UIInfo.separator(),
UIInfo.closeItem(this),
UIInfo.quitItem(new MenuItemListener() {
public void menuItemEvent(MenuItemEvent event) {
fileExit();
}
}),
UIInfo.end()
};
UIInfo editMenu[] = {
UIInfo.undoItem(this),
UIInfo.redoItem(this),
UIInfo.separator(),
UIInfo.cutItem(this),
UIInfo.copyItem(this),
UIInfo.pasteItem(this),
UIInfo.separator(),
UIInfo.findItem(this),
UIInfo.findAgainItem(this),
UIInfo.replaceItem(this),
UIInfo.propertiesItem(this),
UIInfo.end()
};
UIInfo moveMenu[] = {
UIInfo.item("_Up", "Move selection up", this),
UIInfo.item("D_own", "Move selection down", this),
UIInfo.end()
};
UIInfo helpMenu[] = {
UIInfo.help("second"),
UIInfo.aboutItem(new MenuItemListener() {
public void menuItemEvent(MenuItemEvent event) {
helpAbout();
}
}),
UIInfo.end()
};
UIInfo mainMenu[] = {
UIInfo.subtree("_File", fileMenu),
UIInfo.subtree("_Edit", editMenu),
UIInfo.subtree("_Move", moveMenu),
UIInfo.subtree("_Help", helpMenu),
UIInfo.end()
};
app.createMenus(mainMenu);
}
public void helpAbout() {
String title = "Second App";
String version = "Version " + appVersion;
String license = "GPL";
String[] authors = { "The Java-GNOME team" };
String comments = "This example is a part of the Java-GNOME tutorial";
String[] documenters = { "Many people" };
String translator = "";
About about =
new About(title, version, license, comments, authors, documenters, translator, null);
about.show();
}
public void fileExit() {
Gtk.mainQuit();
}
public void menuItemEvent(MenuItemEvent event) {
MessageDialog dialog = new MessageDialog(app, DialogFlags.MODAL,
MessageType.INFO, ButtonsType.OK,
"Not implemented", false);
dialog.run();
dialog.destroy();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Program.initGnomeUI("Second", Second.appVersion, args);
new Second();
Gtk.main();
}
}
I would really appreciate if someone could tell me what is going on. I did leave a message on the java-gnome mailing list but i got no replies from there either.
Thanks |
