  • JFrame that has multiple layers

    - by phunehehe
    Hello, I have a window that has two layers: a static background and a foreground that contains moving objects. My idea is to draw the background just once (because it's not going to change), so I make the changing panel transparent and add it on top of the static background. Here is the code for this: public static void main(String[] args) { JPanel changingPanel = new JPanel() { @Override public void paintComponent(Graphics g) { super.paintComponent(g); g.setColor(Color.RED); g.fillRect(100, 100, 100, 100); } }; changingPanel.setOpaque(false); JPanel staticPanel = new JPanel(); staticPanel.setBackground(Color.BLUE); staticPanel.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); staticPanel.add(changingPanel); JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.add(staticPanel); frame.setSize(800, 600); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.setVisible(true); } This piece of code gives me the correct image I want, but every time I repaint changingPanel, staticPanel gets repainted as well (which is obviously against the whole idea of painting the static panel just once). Can somebody show me what's wrong? FYI I am using the javax.swing.Timer to recalculate and repaint the changing panel 24 times every second.

  • complicated inserts

    - by liysd
    I have to do something like this insert into object (name, value, first_node) values ('some_name', 123, 0) @id = mysql_last_insert_id() insert nodes (name, object_id) values ('node_name',@id) @id2 = mysql_last_insert_id() update object set first_node=@id2 where id=@id Is it possible to make it simpler? What if I want to insert more pairs (object, node) with resonable efficency?

  • Sparse matrices / arrays in Java

    - by DanM
    I'm working on a project, written in Java, which requires that I build a very large 2-D sparse array. Very sparse, if that makes a difference. Anyway: the most crucial aspect for this application is efficency in terms of time (assume loads of memory, though not nearly so unlimited as to allow me to use a standard 2-D array -- the key range is in the billions in both dimensions). Out of the kajillion cells in the array, there will be several hundred thousand cells which contain an object. I need to be able to modify cell contents VERY quickly. Anyway: Does anyone know a particularly good library for this purpose? It would have to be Berkeley, LGPL or similar license (no GPL, as the product can't be entirely open-sourced). Or if there's just a very simple way to make a homebrew sparse array object, that'd be fine too. I'm considering MTJ, but haven't heard any opinions on its quality. Thanks!! -Dan

  • Creating my own Stack

    - by Malaken
    I am creating my own stack for my data structures class. For our assignment we are using the assignment to convert a real-time infix equation into a postfix equation. I thought my program: took input determines if it was digit or number(operand) prints it out determines if input is operator (+,-,/,*) adds to stack or prints out, depending on stack precedence Instead it prints out the operands as expect, but I get this error when I enter an operator .../dorun.sh line 33: 4136 Segmentation fault sh "$" [code] #include using namespace std; class DishWell{ public: char ReturnEnd(){ return Well.back(); } void Push(char x){ Well.push_back(x); } void Pop(){ Well.pop_back(); } bool IsEmpty(){ return Well.empty(); } private: vector<char> Well; }; #include <iostream> bool Precidence(char Input, char Stack){ int InputPrecidence,StackPrecidence; switch (Input){ case '*': InputPrecidence = 4; break; case '/': InputPrecidence = 4; break; case '+': InputPrecidence = 3; break; case '-': InputPrecidence = 3; break; case '(': InputPrecidence = 2; break; default: InputPrecidence = 0; } switch (Stack){ case '*': StackPrecidence = 4; break; case '/': StackPrecidence = 4; break; case '+': StackPrecidence = 3; break; case '-': StackPrecidence = 3; break; case '(': StackPrecidence = 2; break; default: StackPrecidence = 0; } if(InputPrecidence>StackPrecidence) return true; else return false; } int main(int argc, char** argv) { DishWell DishTray; char Input; bool InputFlag; InputFlag = true; while(InputFlag){ cin>>Input; if((((Input>='a'&&Input<='z')||(Input>='A'&&Input<='Z'))|| (Input>='0'&&Input<='9')))//If Digit or Number cout<<Input; if((Input=='*'||Input=='/'||Input=='+'||Input=='-')){//if operand if(Precidence(Input,DishTray.ReturnEnd())) DishTray.Push(Input); else if(!Precidence(Input,DishTray.ReturnEnd())) cout<<Input; } else if(!((((Input>='a'&&Input<='z')||(Input>='A'&&Input<='Z'))|| (Input>='0'&&Input<='9')))||((Input=='*'||Input=='/'||Input=='+'||Input=='-')))//if not digit/numer or operand InputFlag = false; } while(!DishTray.IsEmpty()){ cout<<DishTray.ReturnEnd(); DishTray.Pop(); } return 0; [code] My code is very length, I know, but I appreciate help. Especially any times for efficency or future coding. Thanks again P.S. Dr. Zemoudeh, this is your student Macaire

  • XNA Xbox 360 Content Manager Thread freezing Draw Thread

    - by Alikar
    I currently have a game that takes in large images, easily bigger than 1MB, to serve as backgrounds. I know exactly when this transition is supposed to take place, so I made a loader class to handle loading these large images in the background, but when I load the images it still freezes the main thread where the drawing takes place. Since this code runs on the 360 I move the thread to the 4th hardware thread, but that doesn't seem to help. Below is the class I am using. Any thoughts as to why my new content manager which should be in its own thread is interrupting the draw in my main thread would be appreciated. namespace FileSystem { /// <summary> /// This is used to reference how many objects reference this texture. /// Everytime someone references a texture we increase the iNumberOfReferences. /// When a class calls remove on a specific texture we check to see if anything /// else is referencing the class, if it is we don't remove it.
