[aspnetguy]

what do you mean by constantly changing text? are you writing a Content Management System (dynamic content)?

[Elnof]

It's a program to controll a robot from your computer. And it will have fields where it displays the readings from the robots sensors. So, I would like the test to be constantly getting the information from the robot, and changing to suit the data. It might be considered dynamic content...

[aspnetguy]

okay, I assumed you were refering to web pages. I am not very familiar with Java programs.I don't know if this will help you or not but hopefully it helps you find the right plac to look.Windows programs are constantly processing messages sent by the program (ie it is always listening for key presses and waiting to be told to re paint the screen.In C# when programming a game you override the OnPaint method and do all your drwaing then the last line you tell the screen immediately repaint it's self.Do you know that method (or whatever) listens for and handles the data sent by the robot sensors? You will probably have to override that method and force it to continually loop.

[Elnof]

Well, I could do that, but I think that I might be able to create a variable to gather the information... But the problem of repainting the screen still remains...

[aspnetguy]

I was using painting as an example. The OnPaint is just one of many messages that windows listens for. You need to find the correct message being sent fromt he robot and override the method that handles it.Does the robot come with some documentation or an API?

[Elnof]

Not that I know of... It might. But I'm not following, it's not the robot that paints the screen, it's the program I'm trying to make.

[aspnetguy]

forget the paint idea, it was just an example! Where is the robot from? Where did you buy it?Give me some info and I could probably dig asomething up for you. I can't see any company selling a programmable robot without any documentation!

It's a Lego NXT, using the lejos firmware. Also, I have done some work, and I have new code, but it doesn't quite work.

which sensor are you trying to capture? The API for lejos has several listners for different sensorsColorListnerLightListenerMotionListnerHave you read their tutorial?

[Elnof]

Yea, I've bought the book about it. But that's not my problem, I'm having trouble with the making of the actual program. I understand the leJOS stuff.PS: Wrong link, thats for the stuff from 2002

[aspnetguy]

does the book you bought and the tutorials explain how to make a program? I am having a hard time understanding what exactly you are having trouble with and what do and don't know.

[Elnof]

The book explains how to use the leJOS API, not how to write in Java. I'm having trouble figuring out how to add a menu to a regulare Java frame. I know how to add one to a Jframe, but not to a regulare frame.

[aspnetguy]

Sun's tutorial is probably as good as it is going to get without buying a java book.http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/

[lugos]

The book explains how to use the leJOS API, not how to write in Java. I'm having trouble figuring out how to add a menu to a regulare Java frame. I know how to add one to a Jframe, but not to a regulare frame.

Hello,I'm not too familiar with Swing, as I am more of a Java web app developer, but my Java book states the following about Menus under a section titled 'Using Menus with Frames':"In Swing GUIs, menus can be attached only to objects of the classes that provide method setJMenuBar. Two such classes are JFrame and JApplet. The classes used to declare menus are JMenuBar, JMenu, JMenuItem, JCheckBoxMenuItem and class JRadioButtonMenuItem."Hope this helps.

[Elnof]

Ok, thanks, I think I figured it out, but now I have another problem:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: NXT2

Exception in thread "main" I resently changed the project name from NXT2 to Nxt_Command_Center_1_0_0. PS: The book was for the leJOS NXJ api. Not all of java.

could you fix your post? The color coding messed up the code and it is not all showing. It looks like either you still have a reference in your code tot he old class name or either the editor you are using is still trying to link it. What are you using for an IDE? Eclipse?

[Elnof]

Eclipse

[aspnetguy]

according to this http://muvium.com/muviumWiki/default.aspx/...pseProject.html you need to edit the config xml file also

[lugos]

Eclipse

Have you tried cleaning the project after you changed the name? Project -> Clean...My experience (I also use Eclipse) with changing project names is that it is almost certain to cause problems. I might not be doing it the right way, but I'd much rather create a new project, copy the files over, and then delete the old project.

[Elnof]

Good point, now the ImageIcon that I was using is gone too.

Did cleaning the project do that?

[Elnof]

No, cleaning the project didn't do anything that I noticed.

[Elnof]

Well, I've got it working now!PS: is their a way to make my own properties? So I could do something like: cheese.startCutting(1.00); Or something?

[aspnetguy]

yes you can create your own classes and define the methods and properties you want. Also you can extend an existing class to include new protperties you want.
