I have modified a lesson from HeadFirst
Java but can't get the image to display. I created a small jpg image red.jpg in paint that I saved in the directory with the package files. Any help would be appreciated. I am working towards learning how to create icons.
package anime;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class SimpleAnimation {
int x=70;
int y=70;
public static void main (
String[] args){
SimpleAnimation gui = new SimpleAnimation();
gui.go();
}
public void go(){
JFrame frame= new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
MyDrawPanel drawPanel=new MyDrawPanel();
frame.getContentPane().add(drawPanel);
frame.setSize(300,300);
frame.setVisible(true);
for (int i=0;i<130;i++){
x++;
y++;
drawPanel.repaint();
try {
Thread.sleep(50);
} catch(Exception ex){}
}
}
class MyDrawPanel extends JPanel{
public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.fillRect(0,0,this.getWidth(), this.getHeight());
g.setColor(Color.green);
Image image= new ImageIcon("red.jpg").getImage();
g.drawImage(image,x,y,this);
}
}
}
