Study Notes
Inputs, Outputs, and Events
About Input / Output
- Data utilizes characters representing words and symbols of human speech.
- Characters are coded based on standards like ASCII and UNICODE, assigning numeric values to letters, numbers, and symbols.
ASCII vs. UNICODE
-
ASCII is a character encoding standard for electronic communication.
- It stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
- ASCII supports 128 characters.
- It uses 7 bits to represent a character.
- It requires less space.
-
UNICODE is an industry standard for encoding, representation, and handling text in most of the world's writing systems.
- It stands for Universal Character Set.
- UNICODE supports a wide range of characters.
- It uses 8bit, 16bit, or 32bit depending on the encoding type.
- It requires more space.
-
In word processing and desktop publishing, input/output refers to the main portion of a document, excluding elements like headlines, tables, and footnotes.
Swing Text Components
-
Swing text components enable users to display and edit text input.
-
Swing offers seven text components.
JTextField
JFormatedTextField
JTextArea
JPasswordField
JEditorPane
JTextPane
-
All Swing text components inherit from
JTextComponent
.JTextComponent
provides a configurable foundation for text manipulation.
-
JTextField
andJTextArea
are frequently-used components. -
The
setEditable(boolean b)
method determines if a text component is for input/edit (true
) or display only (false
). -
The
getText()
andsetText()
methods are used to get user inputted text, and display text in the text component. -
The basic editing operations are supported.
- insert
- delete
- backspace
- copy (
Ctrl-C
)- cut (
Ctrl-X
) - paste (
Ctrl-V
)
- cut (
-
Both components work with plain, unformatted text.
JTextField vs. JTextArea
-
JTextField
is a control in Java AWT that allows users to edit a single line of text.- It extends
TextComponent
. - It helps to enter a single line of text.
- It extends
-
JTextArea
is a control in Java AWT that provides a multi-line editor area.- It also extends
TextComponent
. - It is helpful for entering multiple lines of text.
- It also extends
-
JTextField
only accepts a single line of text, whileJTextArea
can work with multiple lines. -
JTextField
generates an ActionEvent when the Enter key is pressed. -
JTextArea
simply moves the cursor to the next line is the Enter key is pressed. -
The user interface needs an additional component (usually a button) to get the text from a text area.
-
JTextComponent
is the base class for Swing text components. -
Document
is an interface used by text components, serving as a container for text that acts as the model for Swing text components.
Text in JavaFX
- JavaFX provides similar controls with enhanced capabilities.
TextField
TextArea
PasswordField
HTMLEditor
- JavaFX
TextField
andTextArea
support prompt text and provide a right-click context menu for basic editing. - Tree derivations:
javafx.scene.control.TextInputControl
javafx.scene.control.TextArea
javafx.scene.control.TextField
javafx.scene.control.PasswordField
Class Diagram - Part II
- The class diagram creates software applications.
- It provides a static view of the system and aspects of an application
- A class diagram has key points such as a meaningful name to the class diagram, objects and their relationships acknowledged, and knowlege of each class' attributes and methods.
- Minimum specified properties should be desired, can lead to more properties of the unwanted category for a complex diagram.
- Diagrams should be redrawn and reworked.
