Thanks. and Good Bye.

This post is almost related to facebook platform  We’ll cover up first how to setup our application on facebook .All you need to do is go to Facebook Developer and register a new application. Please follow the process as below(according to Nov 6 2010):

After you have registered your application your page goes to appliation setting.After all you can see step by step process to set your application.The main about is simple just give name of your application and some description and leave everything as it is.

Next for Site domain You need to have select proper domain for your application where your application is living otherwise you will not be able to access many function of facebook when your app is on web.

Facebook Integration menus is main setting part of your application choose your own unique application domain e.g. testmyapp but don’t use any special char , only character of lowercase. Then give fully qualified url of your application where your application lives but remember the url must end with either / or ? (e.g.  http://example.com/myapp/  or http://example.com/myapp/app.php? ). I like iframe because it’s easy than fbml with no any tag restriction. Finally use Bookmark url as of CanvasPage urlAt last, it’s the Advance tab which is simple.The facebook automatically redirects to the url ->Deauthorize Callback when any user just denied your application to allow your app to use his/her basic info or data. Use canvas session parameter which is very good practice of authentication of facebook user.

After all you just save the setting. Now you can see your application by going to http://apps.faecbook.com/your_unique_app_domain

This post is related to the Swing of Java. Mostly in JTable we can see that we need the icons in a table for the reliability and RIA of software for the front-end user. So to use icon we used to import the .png/.jpg/.gif in our project. Firstly you need to know how the JTable cell are being rendered and we need to know the model of the JTable.

You can refer to the api:

• DefaultTableModel
• DefaultTableCellRenderer

Ok now let’s move to the main Job.

We need to know which one column is need to place an icon. Futher more the table must be made from our own custom Table Model. Not only that we need to add a table cell renderer . Our main motto is to add a JLabel in a Cell of JTable. After you have referred to the API it would be easier to deal with the cell renderer. This cell renderer can be obtained by extending DefaultTableCellRenderer.

Source Code for CellRenderer:

import javax.swing.JLabel;
import java.awt.Component;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableCellRenderer;

public class Renderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer{

    @Override
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected,
         boolean hasFocus, int row, int column)
     {

        if(value instanceof JLabel){
           //This time return only the JLabel without icon
            return (JLabel)value;
        }

        else
            return super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);

     }
}

In the same way i’ll create a extended DefaultTableModel

import javax.swing.JLabel;

class MyModel extends javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel{

    Object[][] row = {{new JLabel("Row 1 Col 1"), "Row 1 Col 2", "Row 1 Col3"},
                      {new JLabel("Row 2 Col 1"), "Row 2 Col 2", "Row 2 Col3"},
                      {new JLabel("Row 3 Col 1"), "Row 3 Col 2", "Row 3 Col3"},
                      {new JLabel("Row 4 Col 1"), "Row 4 Col 2", "Row 4 Col3"}};

    Object[] col = {"Column 1", "Column 2", "Column 3"};

    public MyModel (){

	//Adding columns
        for(Object c: col)
            this.addColumn(c);

	//Adding rows
        for(Object[] r: row)
            addRow(r);

    }

    @Override

    public Class getColumnClass(int columnIndex) {
        if(columnIndex == 0)return getValueAt(0, columnIndex).getClass();

        else return super.getColumnClass(columnIndex);

    }

}

Now we’ll create a small app extending JFrame and utilizing the above classes.

import javax.swing.*;
import ftp.gui.IconTableCellRenderer;

public class MyTableTest extends JFrame{
    public MyTableTest(String title){

        super(title);
        showGUI();

    }

    public void showGUI(){

        JTable table = new JTable();
        table.setModel(new MyModel());//invoking our custom model
        table.setDefaultRenderer(JLabel.class,  new Renderer());// for the rendering of cell
        JScrollPane jp = new JScrollPane(table);
        getContentPane().add(jp);
        setVisible(true);
        setSize(500,300);

    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        MyTableTest t = new MyTableTest("Table Custom");
    }

}

After all the output must be like this:

Output

To make the JLabel selected as other cell of JTable.

For this you need to add some more code in Cell Renderer.

Modified Cell Renderer for selection of JLabel

import javax.swing.JLabel;
import java.awt.Component;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableCellRenderer;

public class Renderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer{

    public void fillColor(JTable t,JLabel l,boolean isSelected ){
        //setting the background and foreground when JLabel is selected
        if(isSelected){
            l.setBackground(t.getSelectionBackground());
            l.setForeground(t.getSelectionForeground());
        }

        else{
            l.setBackground(t.getBackground());
            l.setForeground(t.getForeground());
        }

    }

    @Override
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected,
         boolean hasFocus, int row, int column)
     {

        if(value instanceof JLabel){
            JLabel label = (JLabel)value;
            //to make label foreground n background visible you need to
            // setOpaque -> true
            label.setOpaque(true);
            fillColor(table,label,isSelected);
            return label;

        }

        else
            return super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
     }

}

Now the output must be something like this:

output

To add Icon on JTable Cell

For adding icon on JTable you can simply add a line of code in your Renderer.

I’ve just added one line code in the above DefaultTableCellRender extended class i.e. Renderer

//In the method of getTableCellRendererComponent

        if(value instanceof JLabel){
            JLabel label = (JLabel)value;
            //you can add the image here
            label.setIcon(new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("folder.png")));
            label.setOpaque(true);
            fillColor(table,label,isSelected);

            return label;
        }

//other stuff

Output:

output with icon

That’s all for today.

Thanks you and Don’t hasitate on giving comment.

So to get rid of this I can guide you how can a Netbeans be compatible with JavaFX 1.3 . Check this out here

Let’s see how the tooltip works.

Requirement:

• JAVAFX 1.3
• For GUI Builer (Nebeans 6.5 or higher with javafx 1.3)

Firstly you need to make any Object (only from javafx.scene.control which I’ll tell later.) of JavaFx e.g. Button,PasswordBox,TextBox,Label,ComboBox etc.

Sample Code (For making ToolTip):

import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.Tooltip;

/**
 * @author JAVANEPAL
 */

var submit = Button {
	text: "Submit"
        tooltip:Tooltip{
            text:"It's a button"
        }
}

Stage {
    title: "Application title"
    scene: Scene {
        width: 250
        height: 80
        content: [
            submit
        ]
    }
}

Output:(you can see “It’s a button” as tooltip of Button)

ToolTip

Now the question comes what to do when I would like to make a tooltip for any shape of Javafx like : Rectangle, Circle, Polygon, etc. or on any Nodes. So for that you need to have a small trick .
Let’s have a code of making one Rectangle:

var myRect = Rectangle {
	x: 10, y: 10
	width: 140, height: 90
	fill: Color.GRAY
}

then let’s make one Tooltip variable.

var mytip = Tooltip{
    text:"It's a tooltip for shapes or Nodes too"
}

As we know that the tooltip only works on javafx.scene.control classes
but we are having some tricks here. Let’s put the Rectangle and Tooltip at a Group class’s content[]

var myGroup=Group {

	content: [
		myRect,mytip
	]
        //This is helpful for the rollover
        //and display tooltip
        onMouseEntered: function (e:MouseEvent): Void {
                 mytip.activate();
        }
        //This is helpful for the rollout
        //and quit tooltip
        onMouseExited: function (e:MouseEvent): Void {
            mytip.deactivate();
        }

}

In above code we have used the rollover event in Group, which helps us to run the tooltip and rollout event for the disable of tooltip.
Finally it’s finished we have made the Tooltip shown at Nodes too.

Source code for Tooltip on Nodes

import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Tooltip;
import javafx.scene.shape.Rectangle;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.Group;
import javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent;

/**
 * @author JAVANEPAL
 */

var myRect = Rectangle {
	x: 10, y: 10
	width: 140, height: 90
	fill: Color.GRAY
}
var mytip = Tooltip{
    text:"It's a tooltip for shapes too"
}

var myGroup=Group {

	content: [
		myRect,mytip
	]
        //This is helpful for the rollover
        //and display tooltip
        onMouseEntered: function (e:MouseEvent): Void {
             mytip.activate();
        }
        //This is helpful for the rollout
        //and quit tooltip
        onMouseExited: function (e:MouseEvent): Void {
            mytip.deactivate();
        }

}

Stage {
    title: "Application title"
    scene: Scene {
        width: 250
        height: 120
        content: [
            myGroup
        ]
    }
}

Output:

Javafx Tooltip
