Code is giving an error in console, but there are no errors apparent in the code!
Basically, I am trying to drawString and I am getting some unexplained errors. Eclipse isn't redlining anything, but when I run the application, it gives an error and refuses to draw the test. Here is my source code:
MainGameClass:
Code :
public class MainGameClass {
//Accesses the ScreenHandler class and makes it use 'sh' variable
static ScreenHandler sh = new ScreenHandler();
//Main thingy (duh)
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Makes ScreenHandler class activate DrawWindow method
sh.DrawWindow();
sh.PaintWindowText(null);
}
}
ScreenHandler
Code :
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
//Referenced by MainGameClass
public class ScreenHandler {
//Draws the window the game is in
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Indev v0.01");
public void DrawWindow(){
//Initiates window drawing
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
JLabel emptyLabel = new JLabel("");
//Makes it 800 by 600
emptyLabel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(1000, 600));
frame.getContentPane().add(emptyLabel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.pack();
//Makes it visible
frame.setVisible(true);
//Activates the PaintWindow function below
PaintWindowColor();
}
public void PaintWindowColor(){
//Sets the background color to blue
//frame.getContentPane().setBackground(Color.BLUE);
}
public void PaintWindowText(Graphics g){
if(g instanceof Graphics2D){
}
try{
g.drawString("Did this work?", 200, 200);
} catch (Exception ex)
{
ex.printStackTrace();
}
//Makes a new JLabel with text in it
//JLabel label = new JLabel("Did this work?");
//Sets the font to plain
//label.setFont(new Font("Sans-Serif",Font.PLAIN,140));
//Adds the text label to the screen
//frame.add(label);
}
}
I hope you can help, as any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
