Programming 2 CREATING MENUS

(Part 1)

In this lesson, you will learn to create menus. This makes your program more organized
and make any choices for your users. This will have many options to be chosen by the user to
make the program you will be developing more interactive and efficient.

At the end of this lesson, the student should be able to:

 Apply the concept of List Menu Command

 Utilize the syntax of List menu command

 Combine List menu with other components in the program

 Design your own program using List Menu Command

Choice

A Choice is an item that lets you choose from a selection of alternatives. If this

sounds like a menu, you're right. Choices are free-spirited relatives of menus. A Choice item

can be positioned anywhere, in any kind of container. It looks something like a button, with

the current selection as its label.

It provides a list of items from which you can select one item at a time.

Example:

Choice choice = new Choice();

choice.addItem(“First option”);
choice.addItem(“Second option”);

Lists

A JList presents the user with a group of items, displayed in one or more columns, to
choose from. Lists can have many items, so they are often put in scroll panes.

In addition to lists, the following Swing components present multiple selectable items to the
user: combo boxes, menus, tables, and groups of check boxes or radio buttons

It is also a collection of strings from which you can choose.

Example:
List list = new List(5);
list.add(“First Item”);
list.add(“Second Item”);
list.add(“Third Item”);
list.add(“Fourth Item”);
list.add(“Fifth Item”);

 The pack() method is defined in Window class in Java and it sizes the frame so that

all its contents are at or above their preferred sizes. An alternative to the pack() method is to

establish a frame size explicitly by calling the setSize() or setBounds() methods. In general,

using the pack() method is preferable to call than setSize() method, since pack leaves the

frame layout manager in charge of the frame size and layout managers are good at adjusting

to platform dependencies and other factors that affect the component size.

The method show() is, indeed, deprecated. Deprecated means that you're not

supposed to use it anymore, as it's been replaced by something better and may be removed in

the future. In this case, you're supposed to use setVisible(true) instead.
