Java Academy:Graphical User Interface

Given by Nancy McCracken at NPAC Java Academy February--April 99 on March 1999. Foils prepared March 26 1999

These slides present a simplified view of the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT), which is used in Java to build Graphical User Interfaces (GUI)s.
  • The building blocks of a GUI are called Components
  • The basic ones shown here are Labels, Buttons, TextFields, TextAreas, and Checkboxes
  • We show simple Layouts to arrange Components (you don't have to say exactly where to put everything).
  • We introduce some applet templates for Components and Graphics
Note that components should not be put in the same applet area as drawing with Graphics.
