EE408 Assignment 1: Get Acquainted with Java and GUI Widgets



2%


Due: 5 PM, Friday September 5.


Send your instructor (dhou at clarkson) an email with answers to the following two tasks. Put "EE408 Assignment 1" into the subject line of your email.


1. Read carefully the Wednesday handout "Chapter 2. Understanding Objects in Java" and ask 3 questions about Java that you would like to have an answer for.


2. Identify 3 windows from a GUI application of your choice. For each window, name in a list all of its widgets. If you work on the machines in Rowley 142, you can use SnagIt to capture the screen shots. Note that the goal is to identify as many as possible widgets. When one widget appears more than once, it is sufficient to point it out only once.

As a reference, a visual index to JFC Swing components (a.k.a widgets) can be found here.
