Image slideshow

This is an image slideshow program. The program allows you to select the image files to play. If the play button is clicked the slideshow plays. It stops when you click the same button or when all images were displayed. In this program, you learn to use the HashMap data structure to store objects, to use the Thread class to control the slideshow process.

Code Explanation:

1 Get the dimension (width and height) of the computer screen.

2 Initialize the filename variable to empty string. The filename variable stores a image file path. When the program first loads, there is no image to display on the screen so the filename should be empty.

3 The paint method of the Canvas class is where the drawing begins. It invokes the drawIt method to display the image at the center of the screen when the program opens.

4 The drawIt method is implemented to display the image. The translate(x,y) method of the Graphics2D class is used to move the original coordinate to the (x,y) coordinate or position. We use the drawImage method to  display the image at the (x,y) position.

5 The storeImages method is invoked when the user clicks the Open sub menu item from the File menu. This method allows the user to selection image files and store them in the HashMap object called imgFiles. We use the put method to add each file to this object.

6 The moveFirst method moves to the first image in the imgFiles object. The repaint method of the Canvas class is invoked to repaint the component so the image is displayed.

7 The moveFirst method moves to the next image in the imgFiles object.

8 The getImageFiles method return the images in the imgFiles object.

9 The showInterface class has code to show the interface of the Image Slideshow program. In this program,
we need one menu bar. In the menu bar we place the File menu. The File menu has two sub menu items: mopen and mexit. Each sub menu item is registered with the action event. To support the shortcut key pressed, you need to use the setMnemonic method. The sub meu item is added to the File menu by using the add method. You will use the setJMenubar method to add the menu bar
to the program window(JFrame)  We also need one button to let the user play or stop the slideshow.
10 The actionPerformed method of the ActionListener interface is rewritten to enable the actions of the play button and the menu selection.

11 The startClick method has code to start the slideshow by invoking the start method the ImageSlider class. The icon of the button is changed from play to stop icon at this time. If the user does not interrupt the slideshow, it plays all images in  the imgFiles.

12 The stopClick method has code to stop the slideshow by invoking the stopShow method the ImageSlider class. The icon of the button is changed from stop to play icon at this time.

13 The ImageSlider class extends the Thread class. The imageSlider has two methods: run and stopShow.
When you invoke the start method of ImageSlider by clicking the play button (inherited from the Thread) the run method automatically invoked to start playing the slideshow. The started variable has true value at this time. We use the sleep method of the Thread class to create time interval between each image show. This method accept the time value in milliseconds.

  1. Image slideshow is a must thing these days as it can help us to stay focus on custom essays reviews. If they know what they are doing about it, then it's going to be kinda hard thing for all of us.
