Comp 152 Project 4: Windowed Programming

Objective:

The high level objectives of this lab are:

• To use event driven programming.

• To use swing to build a program with a graphical interface.

• To practice inheritance again.

• To implement an interface.

• To handle exceptions
  

What you must do:

• three text fields with labels telling the user what they are
• one set of Radio buttons with a mutually exclusive choice
• at least three checkboxes.
• In a separate panel with a separate layout manager
• three buttons:
• one for save
• one for clear
• one for load

1. The Save button must save the contents of all of the checkboxes, the radio buttons and each of the checkboxes, in a file.
   
2. The clear button should clear all of the controls, removing checks and selections and text.
3. The load should load up the saved file and display its contents in the window

Extra Requirements:

You must satisfy the following constraints on your program

• Your program should be well commented

• No one method may be longer than 25 lines  of code long (Lines with only braces on them don't count. Since comments and white space aren't code, they do not count either.)

• One of your classes must extend the JFrame class

Submitting:

When your program is ready, you need to write a readme.txt file that provides me the following information:

• Your name

• The name of your java files (and the names of any extra non-public classes that are contained in the file.

• The implementation decisions that you made. Why did you solve the problem the way that you did?

• Directions on running and using your program. Especially anything that might not be the same for all students. Also tell me what file name you used.
  

• And any problems or bugs left in your program. If your program doesn't quite work in some situations, tell me about it. If your program doesn't run or compile, I want to know that before I try.
