Constructor Detail

ApplicationFrame

public ApplicationFrame(java.lang.String title,
                        java.lang.String logonCaption,
                        java.lang.String pwdCaption)

Prepare the main application frame with the specified namings. * @param title Title of application. * @param logonCaption Caption for the username portion of a logon. * @param pwdCaption Caption for the password portion of a logon.

Method Detail

prepareScreens

protected void prepareScreens()

All screens to be used by the application are prepared here. * For example, the logon screen can be added via:

* frame.addScreen(new ApplicationLogon(this, "User Name", "Password"), "Login").

prepareMenu

protected void prepareMenu()

Subclasses access the protected menu field, creating * the menu options and items, while providing the appropriate * listeners and keyboard shortcuts. For example:

* * menu.addMenuOption("Decide", KeyEvent.VK_D, null);
* menu.addMenuItem("Decide", "Yes", KeyEvent.VK_Y, this);
* menu.addMenuItem("Decide", "Maybe", KeyEvent.VK_M, this);
* menu.addMenuItem("Decide", "No", KeyEvent.VK_N, this);
* menu.addMenuOption("Skill Level", KeyEvent.VK_S, null);
* menu.addMenuItem("Skill Level", "Unix", KeyEvent.VK_U, this);
* menu.addMenuItem("Skill Level", "Windows", KeyEvent.VK_W, this);
* menu.addMenuItem("Skill Level", "Mac", KeyEvent.VK_M, this);
* menu.addMenuSeparator("Skill Level");
* menu.addMenuItem("Skill Level", "Medevil", KeyEvent.VK_E, this);
* *

* Initially, the menu only has one option/item, System/Logon. Sub * classes may recreate the menu as desired, but in order to maintain * the default settings, these classes need to call * super.prepareScreens() first, whether manipulating the menu * manually, or as the first line when overriding this method.
