Graphical Interface on Java Swing not working properly

Question

Help with Swing. I come to you in time of great need, any help will be highly appreciated.

I have created a table game in java for a university project and now I must implement a graphical interface, we must use swing to do so.

The problem that I am facing here is that I am unable to run the actual game by simply adding a button and an action listener, the class that will actually run the game is the following,

                        }
                    }
                }

            }
        });
        startbutton.setBounds(10, 10, 185, 108);
        frame.getContentPane().add(startbutton);

        exitbutton.setBounds(10, 128, 185, 108);
        frame.getContentPane().add(exitbutton);

    }
}

Here is what i have tried to do in the graphical interface part so far, i got the images for the cards and thought of getting a start button that runs the main code of the game and when i do this, the game runs fine on console but the graphical interface freezes. I want to know if this is the right way or if there is another way to do it. Any help would be really appreciated.

Answer 1

The GUI is likely freezing because you are running the game on the UI thread - the thread that handles the button click - and in the game, you are waiting on a scanner on System.in.

Getting the GUI "unstuck" is the easy part: Run your game module using a separate thread. The difficult part is going to be re-orienting your game so that it can be used from the GUI, rather than from the command line.
