well i need help with this code i have two classes pla1 and pla2 which are passing a value to the final class .but in the final class it understands them seperately(the two values ) i want it to invoke the other class mx1,mx2...mx5 only after it had received the two values

class pla1 extends JFrame implements ActionListener

{
private JPanel x=new JPanel();
private JButton b1=new JButton("1");
private JButton b2=new JButton("2");
private JButton b3=new JButton("3");
private JButton b4=new JButton("4");
private JButton b5=new JButton("5");
private JTextField t=new JTextField(1);
private int terrain;
private int r;
final_class fc = new final_class();
public pla1(){
	
	super("terrain");
	getContentPane().add(x);
	setSize(300,300);
//	r=choi();

	x.add(b1);	b1.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);

	x.add(b3);	b3.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b4);	b4.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b5);	b5.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(t);
	
	setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
	
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ev){
	if(ev.getSource()==b1){t.setText("5");terrain=5;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b2){t.setText("4");terrain=4;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b3){t.setText("3");terrain=3;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b4){t.setText("2");terrain=2;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b5){t.setText("1");terrain=1;}
	fc.passVart(terrain);
	switch(terrain){
	case 1: x.remove(b5);break;
	case 2: x.remove(b4);break;
	case 3:x.remove(b3);break;
	case 4: x.remove(b2);break;
	case 5: x.remove(b1);break;
	default: break;}
	//terrain=(int)Double.parseDouble(t.getText());

As the only difference between the classes pla1 and pla2 is the name of the "title"
I strongly that you only made 1 class pla to the constructor of which you pass the title

class pla extends JFrame implements ActionListener

   pla(String title) {
	  super(title);
	  .....
	  .....
	}

and then in your main

public static void main(String[] arg) {
	pla pla1 = new pla("terrain");
	pla pla2 = new pla("factor");
	....

yeah i did it but it involves a greater problem ; as i have said in the previous post i need to get these two values terrain and factor at the same time and after i get these two values i have to call the classes mx1,..mx5 depending on the choice .i basically need to know from both the users their choices and the factor decides how many fold the score should be multiplied if the person wins or loses. the classes mx1..mx5 contains a small type of game

Wont be abble to do this from a
public void static main() method

You will have to make a class that holds pla1 and pla2 and which have call back methods for the anwers back:

class Driver {
	int nbBack = 0;
	pla pla1, pla2;
	Driver() {
	   pla1 = new pla("terrain", this);   // create the 2 pla
	   pla2 = new pla("factor", this);	// passing myself as parameter
   }

	// I am call back by a pla
	void callBackWithValue(pla pla, int factor) {
	   // test which one
		if(pla == pla1)
		   System.out.println("pla1 calls me back with: " + factor);
		else
		   System.out.println("pla2 calls me back with: " + factor);

	}

Now your pla class has to know who call back

class pla {
	Driver driverToCalledMe;

	// constructor
	pla(String title, Driver driver) {
		 super(title);
		 // remember who to call back
		 driverToCallBack = driver;
	}

	public void actionPerformed(ActioneEvent e) {
	   .....
	   // now call back my creator with the factor value
	   // and myself as first parameter so it will be able to identify who I am
	   driverToCallBack.callBackWithValue(this, factor);
	}

	}

well it s getting a little bit complicated as i am not sure how i am going to embed this in the further program . well i will like to ask a question that will make thinks look little less complicated i have to get two values factor and terrain from these two classes these two values i will pass to executable program which would sent it to class score class score which will print the score for the two players, it is kind of a game to be played by two different computers

import javax.swing.*;

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

class pla2 extends JFrame implements ActionListener
{
private JPanel x=new JPanel();
private JButton b1=new JButton("1");
private JButton b2=new JButton("2");
private JButton b3=new JButton("3");
private JButton b4=new JButton("4");
private JButton b5=new JButton("5");
private int factor;
public pla2(){
	super("factor");
	getContentPane().add(x);
	setSize(300,300);
	x.add(b1);	b1.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b2);	b2.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b3);	b3.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b4);	b4.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	x.add(b5);	b5.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
	setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ev){
	if(ev.getSource()==b1){factor=1;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b2){factor=2;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b3){factor=3;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b4){factor=4;}
	if(ev.getSource()==b5){factor=5;}
	
}
public int choix(){return factor;}
}

public class final_class {

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	private int factor;private int terrain;
	private static int ter;
	public void final_class(){}
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
		
		pla p1=new pla1("terrain");
		pla p2=new pla2("factor");
	p1.setVisible(true);
	p2.setVisible(true);
	
 //
here i have to get two values factor and terrain from these two classes these two values i will pass to another class score which will print the score for the two players, it is kind of a game to be played by two different computers  

//	
   if(factor>0)
			{switch(terrain)
		{
		case 1: mx1 r1=new mx1();			
				r1.setVisible(true);break;
		case 2: mx2 r2=new mx2();			
				r2.setVisible(true);break;
		case 3: mx3 r3=new mx3();

				r4.setVisible(true);break;
		case 5: mx5 r5=new mx5();			
				r5.setVisible(true);break;
		}
			
} 
	}
}

the class MX1 looks like this , well actually it is also supposed to return to the main class whether the player have won or not there is a variable inside it win which gets the value 0 if i lose and 1 if i win . i am laking the same trick in this part also , i dont know how to pass the value to the executable program where i can pass its value to class score to let it know if i won or not.

class mx1 extends JFrame implements ActionListener 
{
	private JPanel x=new JPanel();
	private JButton start=new JButton("start");

		//start.setBounds(54,130,30,10);
		//fin.setVisible(false);x.add(fin);
		start.addActionListener((ActionListener) this);
		if(win==1){zz.setText("you win");} else if (win==0) zz.setText("you lose");
		//start.setLocation(new Point(230,150));//fin.setLocation(new Point(300,50));//x.add(fin);
	}
	public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {

You just can't

You create your pla1 and pla2 which are GUI interface
you cannot in the same thread method get the values from fields populated by these GUI. You have to wait for the user to interact with the GUI.

So you cannot:
- create GUI 1
- create GUI 2
- pickup value from GUI 1 and GUI 2

You have to:

- create something to call back when the user interfere with the GUI
- create GUI 1 and tell it something to call when a button is pressed
- create GUI 2 and tell it something to call when a button is pressed

Or this will be an HORRIBLE design

public static void main(String arg[]) {
	pla pla1, pla2;
	// create a thread to create pla1, pla2
	....
   // let make sure the thread finishes
   try(Thread.sleep(1000L);} catch(Exception e) {}
   // wait till both user input a factor
   while(pla1.factor == 0 || pla2.factor == 0)
	   try(Thread.sleep(1000L);} catch(Exception e) {}
   // ok both users have input something
   int fact1 = pla1.factor;
   int fact2 = pla2.factor;
   ....

}

by this are you reffering that i should make a driver class as you suggested in your previous comment ,ok even if i do it but how i can get the value from class mx1 to know whether i win or not . since i have to deduct the score if i lose and increase it if i win
.

Look I have edited my previous post but is is NOT a good solution

how do we create a thread and what is it ? sorry for this question but i have no idea about it .

[pbl]

OK you want the Horrible solution

This is the shortest I could make it

import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Horrible extends JFrame implements ActionListener {

	int factor = -1;
	
	// A JFrame with one button
	Horrible(String title) {
		super(title);
		JButton button = new JButton("Button");
		add(button);
		button.addActionListener(this);
		setSize(200, 100);
		setVisible(true);
	}
	// button pressed changes factor
	public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
		System.out.println("Button click in " + getTitle());
		factor = 10;
	}
	
	// the 2 JFrame static so that my main method can access them
	static Horrible horrible1, horrible2;
	
	public static void main(String[] arg) {
		// A thread to create the GUI 2 frames
		Thread t = new CreateGui();
		// start the thread
		t.start();
		// wait until both are created (horrible2 is created second so lets wait for it)
		while(horrible2 == null) {
			try {
				Thread.sleep(1000L);
			}
		    catch (Exception e) {}
		}
		// ok the 2 frames where created
		// now we can wait on both factor
		while(horrible1.factor == -1 || horrible2.factor == -1) {
			System.out.println("We wait because one of the factor still == -1");
			try {
				Thread.sleep(1000L);   // sleep 1 second
			}
			catch (Exception e) {}
		}
		// OK both factor do not equals -1 anymore
		System.out.println("Ready to process: factor1 = " + horrible1.factor + " factor2 = " + horrible2.factor);
	}

	// a class that will create in a thread the 2 JFrame
	// class is static because called by the main method
	static class CreateGui extends Thread {
		public void run() {
			horrible1 = new Horrible("Terrain");
			horrible1.setLocation(10, 10);
			horrible2 = new Horrible("Factor");
			horrible2.setLocation(10, 120);
		}
	}
}

[killer_beast]

well thanks a lot for the last code it actually solved most of the problems i faced so far in the project , i still dont understand why you said it was the horrible solution . it seemed to work fasted and in a less complicated way than anything i used .

well i have actually finished this part of the project , the main purpose of the program was to actually create a server and a client program . i know its not much like it as i started with kind of bad idea to implement this type of methodology . well i have designed the server and client program buit have not tested it exactly as i dont actually know how i am supposed to test it on the same machine .

well i will need some more help, if you can , can you analyse that wheteher this code would actually work for the client server program.
this is the first time i have used server client program , so i am pretty unsure about everything ,,,i just followed the program given by our professor .
i am actually not sure about the pla class where i have defined the server client program , actually the doubt is
in the if else statement , i have generated the class after the if else statement , shall i include the defination and the implementations of all the buttons( creation and the value they provide) in both the if else statement s ,i.e have it created individually for both server and client or let it remain the way it is . it seems actually the same to me , , just in case ...and the other question is in my main program , i take value from server and client individually , and then invoke a class using those value , will it work like this or not ?.
well i know the question are a bit strange because i am not able to test the program ., well i tried to run this class 2 times in eclipse and at one place i used server and at other i used client , but it didnt work like that .

i have edited my last post to make it more clear what problem i am facing , ca anybody tell me how can i test this server client program , because executing it 2 times in eclipse and choosing one as server and the other as client is not helping .
so i guess either this is not the way or either i have a fatal error in my code .

plz help i am really desperate now to finish with this code, i am working on it for some days and its now getting on my nerves.

[pbl]

I say it is not a good solution because:

a good design fire up and event and the code respond to the event
in that case you write a Thread that periodically check (burning CPU) if a state has changed

It is like if instead of having in your car an accelerator pedal that throws more and less fuel to the engine you'll have an engine that runs at a certain speed and checks periodically if the accelerator pedal has changed its position and react accordingly

Wont drive this kind of car in a race when you want the accelerator to react in a fraction of second
