AWT CONTROLS IN JAVA:BUTTONS

AWT BUTTON Class

Create AWT Buttons with simple Example..........

The java.awt package comes with many GUI components of which Button is the most important and most frequently used. A button functionality (what for it is) can be known by its label like OK or Cancel etc. A mouse click on the button generates an action.

public class Button extends Component implements Accessible

Any GUI component with event handling can be broadly divided into 8 steps.

  • Import java.awt and java.awt.event packages
  • Extending frame or applet and implementing appropriate listener interface that can handle    the events of the component successfully.
  • Set the layout.
  • Create components
  • Register or link the component with the listener interface
  • Beautification of the components (optional)
  • Adding the components to the frame or applet
  • Override all the abstract methods of the listener interface
