Serializable

  • Serializable declares that a class can be serialized (written to binary file)
 import java.io.Serializable;
    public class Species implements Serializable;
    {
        private String name1;
        private int population;
        private double growthRate;
        private transient int tempVar // not serialized
    }

Mine Sweeper

  • Make an array of buttons
 JButton[][] minefield;

How to figure out if a button was pressed, and if so, which button?

  • Event Handler
 actionPerformed( event e )
        Object source = e.getSource();  // pseudo-code
        for(int r=0; r<minefield.length; r++) {
            for (int c = 0; c < minefield[r].length; c++) {
                if (source == minefield[r][c]) {
                

                }
            }
        }


    public class MineSweeper extends JPanel
        implements ActionListener, MouseListener?, MouseMotionListener?, KeyListener, WindowListener
    {
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
            JFrame = new JFrame("MineSweeper");
            JFrame.setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);


    mineField[r][c] = new JButton("");
    mineField[r][c].addActionListener(this);
    this.add(mineField[r][c]);

    this.setLayout(new GridLayout(3,3));
