How To Create Internal Frames In Java

Constructor Detail Description

This constructor creates an internal frame that
JInternalFrame() haven't a title, can't be maximize, resize, close
and non-iconifiable.
This constructor creates an internal frame with
JInternalFrame(String title) the title, but can't be maximize, resize, close and
non-iconifiable.
This constructor creates an internal frame with
JInternalFrame(String title, boolean resizable) title that can be resize but, can't be maximize,
close and non-iconifiable.
This constructor creates an internal frame with
JInternalFrame(String title, boolean resizable,
title that can be resize, close but, can't be
boolean closable)
maximize and non-iconifiable.
This constructor creates an internal frame with
JInternalFrame(String title, boolean resizable,
the tile that can be resize, maximize, close, but
boolean closable, boolean maximizable)
non-iconifiable.
JInternalFrame(String title, boolean resizable, This constructor creates an internal frame with
boolean closable, boolean maximizable, boolean the title, that can be resize, maximize, close, and
iconifiable) iconifiable.

JDesktopPane class, can be used to create "multi-document" applications.

A multi-document application can have many windows included in it.

Internal windows add instances of JInternalFrame to the JdesktopPane instance. The

internal windows are the instances of JInternalFrame or its subclasses.

// Program to create multiple windows

A program to change background color of a frame (Using Action Event)

import java.awt.*; //importing awt package

import javax.swing.*; //importing swing package

import java.awt.event.*; //importing event package

//For an event to occur upon clicking the button, ActionListener interface should be implemented

class StColor extends JFrame implements ActionListener{

JFrame frame;

JPanel panel;

JButton b1,b2,b3,b4,b5;

stColor(){

frame = new JFrame("COLORS");

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

panel = new JPanel(); //Creating a panel which is a container and will hold all the buttons
 panel.setSize(100, 50);

b1 = new JButton("BLUE"); //Creating a button named BLUE

b1.addActionListener(this); //Registering the button with the listener

b2 = new JButton("RED"); //Creating a button named RED

b2.addActionListener(this); //Registering the button with the listener

b3 = new JButton("CYAN");//Creating a button named CYAN

b3.addActionListener(this);//Registering the button with the listener

b4 = new JButton("PINK"); //Creating a button named PINK

//Adding buttons to the Panel

//The below method is called whenever a button is clicked

Pressing of button initially occurred
