PROJECT Java GUI Application: Java Jims Coffee Shoppe

Objective To type a simple Java program, execute ( run ) the program for some particular values, observe the output and then modify the program.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Design an application that uses Java Graphical User Interface ( GUI ) components such as frames, text boxes, labels, checkboxes, radio buttons and click buttons.

The initial starter code for your program is given in Figure 1 .

First run and test the starter code, which primarily has Java GUI elements and has you entering your name into a textbox ( input ) , selecting a radio button and selecting none, one or more checkboxes and then clicking a button to observe the output that appears within another textbox ( output ) .

After you test the original starter code and verify its functionality, you will then modify the program according to the instructions that follow.

Your completed program ( after modification ) will perform, at the minimum, each of the following tasks

allow the user to enter their name in a text field element

allow the user to select a coffee / beverage size, whose prices are given as:

( small : $ 1.25 ; medium : $ 1.75 ; large : $ 2.30 )

allow the user to select none, one or more of: cream, raw sugar, espresso shot

( espresso shot price : $ 0.75 )

when the [ COMPUTE ] button is clicked a text field will display a message to thank the program user and a message box displays a summary of the users coffee order

when the [ EXIT ] button is clicked the application will close

Basically, your program is outlined in the given starter code statements shown within Figure 1 , which follows. Review the starter code to understand the mechanisms of the interactions between the two classes. Perform any modifications according to this projects instructions.

Type, compile and run the basic Java program that is shown in Figure 1 , which follows. Then modify the program accordingly.

}

}

STEP 2 Build, Compile and Run the Program

From the NetBeans Run menu select Run Project ( Lab12 ) to run your app.

STEP 3 Test the Program

Once you have successfully compiled your program, review the graphical user interface that appears, as shown in Figure 2 . This represents a sample run of the program.

Figure 2 Java Swing Interface

With the program running enter a valid input in the top text box that appears.

Click the button and observe the output. Specifically, with your application running you can enter your name as the customer, select a coffee cup size and choose to have cream, raw sugar and / or an espresso shot added to your coffee beverage. When you click the [ COMPUTE ] button an output will appear in the text field next to the [ amount to pay ] label and an initial summary of your coffee beverage order will appear in a message box.

PROJECT Java GUI Application: Java Jims Coffee Shoppe

STEP 4 Modify the Program

With your initial starter program tested and functioning properly, you will now alter the program such that when the user clicks the [ COMPUTE ] button

The amount to pay will appear in the output text field and an order summary will appear in the message box, similar to that shown below.

STEP 5 Modify Again the Program

You will now expand your programs layout by including a new row of GUI elements.

To accomplish this, perform these tasks:

Add a new radio button to the Radio Button Group. This button will allow the program user to select a medium coffee beverage. The users may now be able to select from either a small, medium or large cup of coffee.

In the same GUI row, add a label that will be used as a spacer element. Set the text property of the label to an empty string.

Save your program and perform a trial run of it. Test your program with data similar to that shown below.

PROJECT Java GUI Application: Java Jims Coffee Shoppe

STEP 6 Supplement the Program with a Menu

Add a JMenuBar() to your application. Your GUI is to appear as shown in this screen snapshot segment, which shows two JMenu() objects namely File and Help. The File menu will allow you to exit the running application and the Help menu will show information About the programmer and the program.

Here are some code statements that you can implement to construct the JMenuBar() . Place these statements in an appropriate area of your class file.

// create the menu bar

JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();

add(menuBar);

Build the menu with these menu items:

// add the File menu

JMenu mnFile = new JMenu("File");

menuBar.add(mnFile);

// add a File menu item

JMenuItem mntmExit = new JMenuItem("Exit");

mnFile.add(mntmExit);

// add the Help menu

JMenu mnHelp = new JMenu("Help");

menuBar.add(mnHelp);

// add a Help menu item

JMenuItem mntmAbout = new JMenuItem("About");

mnHelp.add(mntmAbout);

// display the menu bar on the frame

setJMenuBar(menuBar);

Add now the listeners which will allow menu items to interact with the program.

// the Exit menu item listener

mntmExit.addActionListener(e -> System.exit(0));

PROJECT Java GUI Application: Java Jims Coffee Shoppe

// the Help menu item listener

mntmAbout.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0)

{

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Your Message",

"About", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);

}

});

For your [ Help ] -> [ About ] menu item write a multi - line message which lists you as the programmer and also includes some information about this application.

Extra Credit: Add some exception handling to your code. Error trap any numeric characters input into text field t1 by the user and allow for reinput if that is the case. Also add in an animated gif at the bottom area of your app, perhaps a cup of freshly brewed steaming coffee!

STEP 7 Submit Your Project

Once you have determined that your modified program is correctly displaying the required information, complete the submission process as follows:

Open MS Word and type a heading for a new document that includes your full name, course number, lab number and date.

Within the document paste snapshots of your modified program in action. Label the snapshots of your modified run with a reasonable description.

After your snapshot, paste in your finished source code as well copied in from your Java editor.

Submit your MS Word document to the appropriate course submittal box when complete.
