How to use third party themes in swing application?
- by swift
I want to use some third party themes (like synthetica http://www.javasoft.de/synthetica/themes/) in my swing appliaction. i am using eclipse ide, got the jar file of theme and did the following modification(according to the readme file from the theme) in my code
try
{
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new SyntheticaBlackMoonLookAndFeel());
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
but after this modification its showing the following error
The type de.javasoft.plaf.synthetica.SyntheticaLookAndFeel cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files
what does this mean? i tried searching on net but cant really find any useful answers
Contents of Readme file:
System Requirements
===================
Java SE 5 (JRE 1.5.0) or above
Synthetica V2.2.0 or above
Integration
===========
1. Ensure that your classpath contains all Synthetica libraries (including
Synthetica's core library 'synthetica.jar').
2. Enable the Synthetica Look and Feel at startup time in your application:
import de.javasoft.plaf.synthetica.SyntheticaBlackMoonLookAndFeel;
try
{
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new SyntheticaBlackMoonLookAndFeel());
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
