Draw arc in J2ME

     

The given example is going to draw an arc using canvas class of J2ME. You can also set a color for it, as we did in our example.

Different methods that are used in this example...

g.setColor(0, 0, 255); g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight()); g.setColor(255, 0, 0); g.fillArc(15,15, 200, 200, 90, degree); display.callSerially(this); g.setColor(255, 0, 0); g.drawArc(15, 15, 200, 200, 0, 360);

In this example, circle will start moving every time the MIDlet will be started and the repaint() method will be called .

The application will look like as follow..

  for(i = 0; i <= milisecond; i++){
