class InvalidInputException extends Exception {
public InvalidInputException() {
super("Invalid number");
}
}
class BlankInputException extends Exception {
public BlankInputException() {
super("Input cannot be blank");
}
}
So this class is also throwing lot of exceptions and catching them. But the only problem is the JForm controls are not being recognised in the InvalidValueException class. Not sure how to open those controls to this class.
Another issue that I am facing is my validateInput is checking for maximum sum but I want to check for IF any alphabets other than numbers are entered in the textboxes.
This is what my GUI looks like
You might compare your implementation to the working example shown here. It uses JFormattedTextField
to enforce numeric input, as well as a PropertyChangeListener
& FocusListener
to update the sum.
As an aside, you should study layouts before relying too much on a GUI editor. See also Nested Classes.
Addendum: BlankInputException
was misspelled, and your (oddly named) ActionListener
was unused. You should be able to initialize it using a custom code property.
calculate_btn.addActionListener(new InvalidValueException());
