Is it possible to trigger events by method call? (alongside with clicks). below is a sample code. it is not a working code, it just demonstrates how I imagine it.
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Game extends JFrame
{
JButton leftButton = new JButton("left");
JButton rightButton = new JButton ("right");
private JButton Move(String moveClickString)
{
JButton chosenButton = new JButton();
if (moveClickString.equals("left"))
{
chosenButton = leftButton;
}
if (moveClickString.equals("right"))
{
chosenButton = rightButton;
}
return chosenButton;
}
public void actionTrigger(JButton buttonClick)
{
buttonClick.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
Object buttonPressed = e.getSource();
if (buttonPressed == leftButton);
{
//do left
}
if (buttonPressed == rightButton);
{
//do right
}
}
});
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Game game = new Game();
game.setVisible(true);
game.actionTrigger(game.Move("left")); //some way to execute things?.
}
}
Is there some way to execute things?.
Actually this idea comes to my mind when I was trying to solve a problem I am facing with. I posted a separate question about it.
(regarding that previous posted question): In terms of server-client I want to achieve this:
When the client clicks a button in the GUI.
A string 'A' sent to the server side.
When the server receives the string 'A' from the client it invoke 'methodA'; methodA invocation will
affect the GUI in the server side. So that Client and Server GUIs updated correspondingly.
Thank you.
