Digital map application with Java GUI

hi all..
i'm the beginner..
i need u help for my task...
i want to make a digital map application with java GUI..
hm... digital map like google earth... but more simple than google earth...
can u give me tutorials??

Do you have access to a digital map that you wish to use?

First you would need to create the GUI. There is a really good Swing tutorial here:

Trail: Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing (The Java™ Tutorials)

If you wish to show a digital map via a web browser component on your GUI then I would look into this:

JExplorer — TeamDev Ltd.

but.. how if i don't want to put my digital map in web browser??

another question...
can i make clrscr() like C programming in JAVA??
can u give me a tutorial??

thx b4

You can program a Frame based application rather than an Applet Based application using the Swing GUI. Thus you do not need to use a web browser.

clrscr() is not a C standard, it is part of the CLR managed code templates provided with Visual C. It applies to console application, you will not be wanting to make a Map Application in a console...its not possible*.

My advice to you is you NEVER clear the console screen, you do not own it. Other things do to, clearing is a big mistake. Java, just like C & C++ has NO standard method of doing it, you can do OS specific things such as calling cls on windows or clear on linux.

But all in all avoid it! clrscr() is not standard just for the record, and should never be used in programming!
