JOptionPane with Android

anthony20

Hello, good afternoon,

import javax.swing.JOptionPane; 

  void setup(){ 
  size(480,120); 
  background(0); 
  noLoop(); 
}

  void draw(){ 
 String a = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Hi", "Data", JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);  println(a);   
 } 

I want that code to work on android.

I have this mistake: JOptionPane can not be resolved

What I can do?

Where do I can find the .jar file to include?

Regards and thanks in advance.

Hello GoToLoop,

Thanks for the information.

I've tried it that way, I managed to compile the app, but fails at startup and does not work.

I want to show a window where the user can enter text, to use that information. I can do with programming "lowest level" but the result is not so good. Do you have a piece of code that can help me?

a greeting

Sorry, I don't even have an Android! (%)

In Android, you have access neither to AWT nor to Swing (JOptionPane belongs to the latter), but you can access the native Android graphic components.

@anthony20== if you want an input from the user (not only the 3 buttons yes no cancel) like some txt you can try with an editText importing apwidgets library which can do that. code is simple:

                    import apwidgets.*;
                    import android.view.inputmethod.EditorInfo;
                    import android.text.InputType;
                    import android.view.inputmethod.InputMethodManager;
                    import android.content.Context;
                    import android.widget.TextView.OnEditorActionListener;
                    import android.widget.TextView;

                    PWidgetContainer widgetContainer; 
                    PEditText textField;
                    String leTexte;

                    void setup(){
                    orientation(PORTRAIT);
                    editTextField();
                    };

                    void draw(){

                    leTexte = textField.getText();
                    };

    private void editTextField(){
                     widgetContainer = new PWidgetContainer(this); //create new container for widgets
                      textField = new PEditText(5, 100, 420, 70); //create a textfield from x- and y-pos., width and height
                      widgetContainer.addWidget(textField); //place textField in container
                      textField.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
                      textField.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE); //Enables a Done button

                      textField.setCloseImeOnDone(true); 
                }
