Well said, Posted that to show you there's someone who has a clue of what u want, and also for the codes to serve as a guide 4 u bin 4rm Java's doc. site.

You could pick the codes as a clue since you know quite well bout d assignment...

Can give you what you want exactly, without a dime, but nt urgently...

Okay,i sent you a mail.Talk to me there.

The concurrency thing is not clear to me. Is it to perform multiple task of choice that will be initiated from the swing interface concurrently or some defined task? I think it revolves around java multi-threading and Swing GUI.
Re: I Need Help In Java Programming. by Standing5(m): 7:35pm On Oct 23, 2015
liliian:


What you wrote is on the net,one of the example of concurrency.no background colours and layout.I could just lift it from the net. Please i await your response.

I need someone who can actually write it himself and annotate it.
As for background colour, do you mean the color of the main background should be changed from its default with another image/color? Also, by 'Layout', i believe you want one of the regular java swing layouts.

just a well planned layout,colour schemes and borders.Maybe color in the button or so.

bolded yes.

Example the guy gave lacks Multi-threading. Though he declared 'package Concurrency', he didn't demostrate multiple threads running simultaneously. How soon are you looking to have an answer? I asked b'cos i am having serious keyboard challenge with my laptop currently.

By the first week of november.

But the assignment is focusing more on concurrency in java swing,designing a java windows interface.

Writing this would be an issue for me because I have a full time job and many deadlines, however we can achieve this,

I will simply break the stages it's not as difficult per se, if you look at the issue individually

I think you should focus more first on the GUI as the concurrency part can be easily done, but the UI will require a lot of code. what do you have so far, open a github account and put what you have currently so any of us can pull and make commits. It's easier that way than for us to setup a whole project.

We can create a simple JFrame and make use of some Button and Text and Background just to satisfy the requirement of the course. all the best bro put it on Github and share the repo

Thank you,i am a lady cheesy.

I created a GUI with JLabel,JButton and JTextfield.i will put it up here.

}
}


This is what i have so far.I need the concurrency and another textfield.What i want top achieve is when i press count up,its start counting up and when i press count down,it starts counting down.then stop to stop the counting.

Can I get help?cc:pcguru1,timex4u,standing5

Hello, see https://gist.github.com/anonymous/e835dd43a6effccec79f

I modified parts of the code you posted to make that.

it uses a timer to update the UI concurrently. I only implemented the count increment part. I think you should be able to complete it.

it has not been tested.

I tried with netbeans,but it is not working.There is a mistake here in line 20 and 27.

private final Timer mTimer = new Timer();

this is what it's saying in the compiler:

Re: I Need Help In Java Programming. by Nobody: 2:52pm On Oct 27, 2015
Liliian, this isn't very efficient way to go about the problem, but should give you some clues to the solution. I did a little tweaking of the original code you and lordzouga posted just so it works. Here it is!
You could ask for further assistance where needed.

Thanks for fixing that. I actually don't have the Java framework to test that. All the java code I have ever had to write is for android.

Please what would be the most efficient way of doing this?

This might be late but some time ago I wrote a small Timer utility that I think might help. It doesn't use the concurrency class per say but it uses the javax.swing. Timer class.

Here is a link to the package on DropBox

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/keu1m1ec8m1ffxg/AAANIefD0neQIzm0T50emCgOa?dl=0

Does this take care of minute milliseconds?
Why not use java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit

The 
TimeUnit
in 
javax.swing.Timer
class is in milliseconds sir.
