Pointer Example

     

This type of example is basically used in touch screen technology, here we are trying to create a pointer which location is based on the screen touch pointer. The source code for this small example of touch screen application.

 

 

 

 

 

public void pressPointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Pressed";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }

is used to initialize the pointer location when pressed. The source code

public void releasePointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Released";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }

is used to released the pointer from his location. And the source code

public void dragPointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Repeated";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }

is used when repeating the pointer, then it relocate the location of the pointer. The Application is as follows:

 

Source Code of PointerExample.java

import javax.microedition.midlet.*; import javax.microedition.lcdui.*; public class PointerExample extends MIDlet{   private Display display;   public void startApp(){   display = Display.getDisplay(this);   display.setCurrent (new PointerCanvas());    }   public void pauseApp(){}   public void destroyApp (boolean forced){} } class PointerCanvas extends Canvas {   String action = "Press Pointer!";   int x;   int y;   public void pressPointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Pressed";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }   public void releasePointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Released";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }      public void dragPointer (int x, int y) {   action = "Pointer Repeated";   this.x = x;   this.y = y;   repaint ();   }   public void paint (Graphics g) {   g.setGrayScale (255);   g.fillRect (0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());   g.setGrayScale (0);   g.drawString (action + " " + x + "/" + y, 0, 0,    Graphics.TOP|Graphics.LEFT);   g.drawLine (x-4, y, x+4, y);   g.drawLine (x, y-4, x, y+4);   } }
